Abstract: The General Objective Of This Study Was To Appraise The Impact Of Dividend Policy On Shares Pricing Of Quoted Companies In Nigeria. The Role Of Dividend Policy Cannot Therefore Be Undermined Because, To Pay An Excessive Dividend Would Mean Having A Higher Share Price And A Low Percentage Of Retained Earnings And Consequently Exposing The Company To The Danger Of Debt Financing, While On The Other Hand, Reserving A Higher Percentage Of Profit For Retained Earnings Will Threaten The Share Prices Of The Company's Stock And Could Perhaps Scare Shareholders And Potential Investors. It Is Therefore Imperative For The Stakeholders To Strike A Balance By Embarking On A Reliable Dividend Policy. The Study Used Primary And Secondary Data And Praetor Rating Analysis. This Study Also Employed Chi –Square To Analyze The Hypothesis. It Was Found Out That A Balance Between Dividend Payout And Retained Earnings Would Enhance The Share Price Of A Firm.

Abstract: The Indian e-commerce is making news every day- from festive season sales, deep discounts to another round of VC funding. The sector is gaining momentum more than ever. Even the government is supportive of the increased pace of startups. Prime Minister NarendraModi announced a new campaign "Start-up India, Stand up India" to promote bank financing for start-ups and offer incentives to boost entrepreneurship and job creation. The big techies of the world such as Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Qualcomm have offered support to India in its transformation into a digitally empowered society, knowledge economy & a very high penetration of internet. This paper deals with the pattern of VC funding in Indian e-commerce sphere& brings to light the problems in operational areas in e-commerce companies. The mad rush in VC funding, mounting losses & increased valuations of e commerce giants raises possibilities of an e-commerce bubble in India, similar to the dot-com bubble abroad.

Keywords: e-commerce bubble, Venture capitalists, Startups, Entrepreneurship.

[3] Investment data from the PricewaterhouseCoopers Global Private Equity Reports might not match with that of the funds committed data from Venture Economics as we feel that many investments might have been made outside of a formal VCPE fund structure. In addition, several funds locally set up in India might not have been captured in the Venture Economics database. However, both the reports indicate the strong growth in funds committed to various VCPE funds and actual investments made in companies.
