Abstract

The current study examines the performance of top 40 companies based on market capitalization for the period of 5 years (2015-2019). Competitive advantage is measured using asset turnover ratio and profit margin and risk is measured using financial leverage. Book to market ratio is used as a measure of market performance of the firms. The results indicate that profit margin has the most significant impact on the market performance in the Indian stock market.
