Abstract

The purpose of this project is to model volatility and forecasting using Generalized AutoRe- gressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model .This paper examines the deviation of the model when applied to real world problem and how to resolve that issue . This paper also include Stochastic Volatility model and expressed it in State-Space form so that it can be easily forecast by using Kalman �lter and we have a control on its error term . The model is applied on the daily S&P100 index taken from Bombay Stock Exchange and then compared between its actual return and its 30 days ahead predicted volatility .
