Abstract: This article examines the Indian stock market for conditional volatility using symmetric and asymmetric GARCH (Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity) variants with reference to a comprehensive period of 20 years from July 3, 1990 to November 30, 2010 using S&P CNX Nifty. The impact of future trading on Nifty return and volatility is assessed using dummy variable in total period and using Log (Open Interest of Nifty futures) in post-derivative period. Along with the period of two decades the analysis has also been done on a sub-period of a decade from 1995 to 2005 with NiftyJunior as surrogate index as it had no derivatives during this period. The results show that the PGARCH model is best suited to Indian market conditions.
