Pricing of the Ownership Structure Data

For a range of five years, we charge Rs. 2,000 for each of the ownership variables per 100 companies. See the following example of data pricing.

Fee Calculation Example:

As an example, please consider a data order of 5 variables for 5 years and 100 firms.

Variables needed: (1) Total Shares (2) Board Size  (3) CEO Duality (4) Institutional Ownership (5) Board Independence

Data Years: 2014 – 2018

Since the data fee is Rs. 2,000 per variable for 5 years and 100 firms, the fee is Rs. 2,000 x 5 Variables = Rs. 10,000. If the order is for 200 firms, the fee would double by a factor of 2, i.e. Rs. 20,000. Similarly, if the order is for 10 variables, 10 years, and 200 firms, the fee would be:
Rs. 40,000 = Rs. 2,000 per variable x 10 variables x 10 years / 5.

We accept orders of Rs. 10,000 and above only.
