This study includes demographic factors such as gender, age, education qualification, nature of occupation, income level, marital status and family size. It is also very important to know that how much an investor can bear the risk, risk value may fluctuate it can be either high and low or it be mediocre, intensity of risk defines what decisions investor is going to take.
