Abstract: The objective of this article is to assess the impact of advertising intensity of a firm on its market risk or beta in the Indian consumer goods sector. Our sample companies are part of four sectoral indices of Bombay Stock Exchange, namely, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), consumer durable, auto and telecom indices. Pooled regression analysis is deployed to assess the impact of advertising intensity on market risk. The results reveal that advertising intensity is a significant determinant of market risk, and that beta or market risk of a firm varies inversely with its advertising intensity with reference to the Indian consumer goods sector.
