Prudvi, from what i understood thru ur message is that u have interest in market/equity research & u wish to acquire specialised knowledge in this field. it may interest u that CFA (www.cfainstitute.org) is a course that may suit ur requirements. it is an internationally recoginsed course that provides enriched knowledge & global exposure. i have already mentioned the intitute's website address above, u can find necessary information regarding registration requirements etc.

Thank you sir for the reply. Just one more thing. I browsed through the web for international CFA. And I want to know the value and career prospects of CFA from ICFAI. Thanks again

Prudvi, the course that i had mentioned is also commonly known as international CFA, while CFA from ICFAI as mentioned by u is known as Indian CFA. i would advice u to go for international CFA as it has much wider coverage and u have better prospects of getting the jobs u desire.
