The study also found a significant impact of turnover on stock returns in the case of Nifty Auto Index, Nifty Bank Index, Nifty FMCG Index, Nifty Metal Index, and Nifty Pharma Index and a significant impact of volume on stock returns in the case of Nifty Bank Index, Nifty FMCG Index, and Nifty Pharma Index. Augmented Dickey–Fuller test suggests that there exists no unit root in the data ( p
