In the Primary Market, the issuer sells securities at predetermined prices. The buyers in the market can be financial institutions, corporates, mutual funds, and individuals.

The secondary market is the capital market, where securities are traded among investors (through Stock exchange). Trading can happen between Financial institutions, individual investors, or both. The issuer doesn’t participate in trading. The price of the securities in the Secondary Market is dependent on current demand and supply.
