You can't calculate market return of stocks or at least Rm in CAPM actually means returns from market..
Market returns are quite simple
Take Base year 1-apr-1979 when Sens*x was at 100
Today's sens*x- 21 july-2012 is 17158.44
Sens*x multiple =current/base= 171.58
From 1-april-1979 to 21 july-2012 is total of 33.33 years (use excel for this)
Average market return= sens*x multiple^(1/n)=171.58^(1/33.33)= 16.69%
for returns of stock we need beta ...find last 7 years either yearly or monthly prices of both sens*x and Axis bank .. Then find returns % for these years eg. %returns(2006) =(price(2006)-price(2005))/Price(2005) *100
and so on..
After all this find slope intercept taking x as stock returns(dependent variable) and y as index returns(independent variable) ----------------use excel for all this...
we also need rf 'risk-free rate' which is 8.50% i think... after all this use CAPM formula...
That;s all
