CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
Introduction about internship:
The project at WAY2WEALTH gave an practical experience about the organization
structure, online trading mechanism, knowledge about mutual funds and its analysis while
choosing best funds. During these ten weeks of the project in the organization we were
exposed to the working environment of the organization. It gave an opportunity to know
about the Stock market performance and mutual funds performance. In the company, I
learned about how management theories and concepts are applied in an organization. I
learned how the Top Management of the organization works with middle level and
operational level in providing them idea and support as stock market is very volatile.
Moreover, employees were quick to react for the inadequacies caused in their work place and
take decisions in solving those problems by sharing their views with the superiors and which
would be solved by practical negotiation rather than theoretical procedures. Learning always
supports in boosting our knowledge level. The wealth team in the indiranagar branch
provided me the guidance in analysing of performance of mutual funds and helped me with
the project. Meanwhile, the project was a good exposure to know the working conditions of
the broking industry. Another important aspect that was noticed in the company was
regarding the discipline followed by the executives while they were handling the customers
grievances and solving their problems. The employees were very friendly and co-operative.
The day-to-day operation was allocated to the employee by the top-level management. The
project at WAY2WEALTH was very helpful, as we came across the risk that is involved in
the work carried out in stock broking company.

INTRODUCTION TO MUTUAL FUND
Mutual fund is an investment company that pools money form shareholders and invest in a
variety of securities, such as stocks, bonds, and money market instruments. Most open-end
mutual funds stand ready to buy back (redeem) its shares at their current net asset value,
which depends on the total market value of the funds investment portfolio at the time of
redemption. Most open end mutual funds continuously offer new shares to investors. Also
known as open-end investment company, to differentiate it from a closed end Investment


Company. Mutual funds invest pooled cash of many investors to meet the funds stated
investment objective. Mutual fund stands ready to sell and redeem their shares at any time at
the funds current net asset value: Total fund assets divided by shares outstanding. In Simple
Words, Mutual fund is a mechanism for pooling the resources by issuing units to the
investors and investing funds in securities in accordance with objectives as disclosed in offer
document. Investments in securities are spread across a wide cross-section of industries and
sectors and thus the risk is reduced. Diversification reduces the risk because all stocks may
not move in the same direction in the same proportion at the same time. Mutual fund issues
units to the investors in accordance with quantum of money invested by them. Investors of
mutual funds are known as unit holders. The profits or losses are shared by the investors in
proportion to their investments.. The investment manager would invest the money collected
from the investor in to assets that are defined permitted by the stated objective of the scheme.
For example, an equity fund would invest equity and equity related instruments and a debt
fund would invest in bonds, debentures, gilts etc. Mutual Fund is a suitable investment for the
common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally managed
basket of securities at a relatively low cost.
TOPIC CHOOSEN FOR STUDY

NEED FOR STUDY
The study first tries to understand the composition of the selected funds which determines the
scope of performance for the funds, followed by use of various tools and techniques that are
relevant in quantifying and understanding the risk and return relationships for each mutual
fund scheme under consideration. Then a comparative analysis of the mutual fund schemes is
done to see which fund has performed the best.
This study is significant to the company as it looks into the minute details that differentiate
the performances of funds of different companies with same theme or sector under similar
market conditions. This would help the company to use the report and take right measures in
selecting the mutual funds.



Objectives of the study
1) To understand the performances of various schemes using various tools to measure the
performances
2) To examine the return from the selected mutual fund
3) To know whether the mutual funds are able to provide reward to variability and volatility
4) To compare security market return with fund return.
5) To measure and compare the performance of selected mutual fund schemes of different
mutual fund companies.

SCOPE OF STUDY:
The present study comprises of six mutual fund schemes launched by different mutual fund
companies. These are
1 DSP Black Rock Top 100 Equity Fund - Regular Plan - Growth
2 Franklin India Blue chip Fund-Growth
3 ICICI Prudential Top 100 Fund - Regular Plan Growth
4 Reliance Vision Fund-GROWTH PLAN-Growth Option
5 HDFC Top 200 Fund - Growth Option
6 SBI BLUE CHIP FUND-REGULAR PLAN GROWTH
The performance of the fund depends on the kind of stock chosen by the fund managers of
the company. Because each stock perform differently in market. The time period of this
research work is from 1st April 2009 to 31
st
march 2013. The NAV of the selected scheme
have been compared for five years with an annual return. Then these schemes have been
compared with the bench mark return to evaluate the performance of these schemes.



METHODOLOGY ADOPTED
The present study made an attempt to analyse the performance of the selected mutual
fund schemes with the market during the period of the study . In order to achieve the
objectives an analysis has been made to compare these schemes with the market on the basis
of risk and return. Different statistical and financial tools are used to evaluate the
performance of these mutual fund schemes under the present study. These tools and
techniques include standard deviation, beta, alpha, R squared, Sharpe ratio and Treynor
ratio. The current study is based on only secondary data. The researcher has used NAV
values of six mutual funds chosen for the study. NAV values are collected from NSE & BSE
and then it has been compared with their respective benchmark indexes.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE:
Ms. Rajeswari T.R., Prof. V.E. Rama Moorthy (2001) in the paper An Empirical Study
on Factors Influencing the Mutual Fund Scheme Selection by Retail Investors have
expressed that mutual fund is a retail product designed to target small investors, salaried
people and others who are not intimidated by the mysteries of stock market but, nevertheless,
like to reap the benefits of stock market investing. At the retail level, investors are unique and
are a highly heterogeneous group. Hence, their fund/scheme selection also widely differs
Shome (1994) based on growth schemes examined the performance of the mutual fund
industry between April 1993 to March 1994 with BSE SENSEX as market surrogate. The
study revealed that, in the case of 10 schemes, the average rate of return on mutual funds was
marginally lower than the market return.
Gupta Ramesh (1989) evaluated fund performance in India comparing the returns earned by
schemes of similar risk and similar constraints. An explicit risk-return relationship was
developed to make comparison across funds with different risk levels. His study decomposed
total return into return from investors risk, return from managers risk and target risk. Mutual
fund return due to selectivity was decomposed into return due to selection of securities and
timing of investment in a particular class of securities.
Gupta and Sehgal (1998) evaluated performance of 80 mutual fund schemes over four years
(1992-96). The study tested the proposition relating to fund diversification, consistency of
performance, parameter of performance and risk-return relationship. The study noticed the


existence of inadequate portfolio diversification and consistency in performance among the
sample schemes
Roshni Jayams (2002) study brought out that equities had a good chance of appreciation in
future. The researcher was of the view that, investors should correctly judge their investment
objective and risk appetite before picking schemes, diversified equity funds were typically
safer than others and index funds were the best when market movements were not certain.
The researcher suggested Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) with growth option was more
suitable for investors in need of regular cash inflows.
Jenson, Michal C. (1967) The Performance of Mutual Funds in the Period 1945 1964, The
Journal of Finance, Vol 23, No. 2, pp.389 416. The research paper indicates the past
performance of the fund, predict the future demand of the fund, investors attract to invest in
Mutual Fund.
Trey nor (1965) presents a new way of viewing performance results. He attempted to rate the
performance of mutual funds on a characteristics line graphically. The steeper the line, the
more systematic risk or volatility a fund possesses. By incorporating various concepts, he
developed a single line index, Tn, called Trey nor index.
Sharpe (1966) explains in a modern portfolio theory context that the expected return on an
efficient portfolio and its associated risk (unsystematic risk) are linearly related. By
incorporating various concepts he developed a Sharpe index. In this paper he attempted to
rate the performance on the basis of the optimal portfolio with the risky portfolio and a risk-
free asset is the one with the greatest reward-to-variability .The unsystematic risk is related to
particular security due to inefficient management
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
The certain limitations of this study are as follows:
The study considers only five years of data to analyse mutual funds
The study uses only six mutual funds for the analysis.
The study is based on secondary data only.



CHAPTER-2
INDUSTRY PROFILE

Overview
Mutual funds go back to the times of the Egyptians and Phoenicians when they sold shares in
caravans and vessels to spread the risk of these ventures. The foreign and colonial
government Trust of London of 1868 is considered to be the fore-runner of the modern
concept of mutual funds. The USA is, however, considered to be the Mecca of modern
mutual funds. By the early - 1930s quite a large number of close - ended mutual funds were


in operation in the U.S.A. Much latter in 1954, the committee on finance for the private
sector recommended mobilization of savings of the middle class investors through unit trusts.
Finally in July 1964, the concept took root in India when Unit Trust of India was set up.

INDIAN MUTUAL FUND INDUSTRY

The mutual fund industry in India started in 1963 with the formation of Unit Trust of India, at
the initiative of the Government of India and Reserve Bank of India. The history of mutual
funds in India can be broadly divided into four distinct phases
First Phase - 1964-1987
Unit Trust of India (UTI) was established in 1963 by an Act of Parliament. It was set up by
the Reserve Bank of India and functioned under the Regulatory and administrative control of
the Reserve Bank of India. In 1978 UTI was de-linked from the RBI and the Industrial
Development Bank of India (IDBI) took over the regulatory and administrative control in
place of RBI. The first scheme launched by UTI was Unit Scheme 1964. At the end of 1988
UTI had Rs. 6,700 crores of assets under management.
Second Phase - 1987-1993 (Entry of Public Sector Funds)
1987 marked the entry of non-UTI, public sector mutual funds set up by public sector banks
and Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and General Insurance Corporation of India
(GIC). SBI Mutual Fund was the first non-UTI Mutual Fund established in June 1987
followed by Canbank Mutual Fund (Dec 87), Punjab National Bank Mutual Fund (Aug 89),
Indian Bank Mutual Fund (Nov 89), Bank of India (Jun 90), Bank of Baroda Mutual Fund
(Oct 92). LIC established its mutual fund in June 1989 while GIC had set up its mutual fund
in December 1990.
At the end of 1993, the mutual fund industry had assets under management of Rs. 47,004
crores.
Third Phase - 1993-2003 (Entry of Private Sector Funds)
With the entry of private sector funds in 1993, a new era started in the Indian mutual fund
industry, giving the Indian investors a wider choice of fund families. Also, 1993 was the year
in which the first Mutual Fund Regulations came into being, under which all mutual funds,


except UTI were to be registered and governed. The erstwhile Kothari Pioneer (now merged
with Franklin Templeton) was the first private sector mutual fund registered in July 1993.
The 1993 SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations were substituted by a more comprehensive and
revised Mutual Fund Regulations in 1996. The industry now functions under the SEBI
(Mutual Fund) Regulations 1996.
The number of mutual fund houses went on increasing, with many foreign mutual funds
setting up funds in India and also the industry has witnessed several mergers and acquisitions.
As at the end of January 2003, there were 33 mutual funds with total assets of Rs. 1,21,805
crores. The Unit Trust of India with Rs. 44,541 crores of assets under management was way
ahead of other mutual funds.
Fourth Phase - since February 2003
In February 2003, following the repeal of the Unit Trust of India Act 1963 UTI was
bifurcated into two separate entities. One is the Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of
India with assets under management of Rs. 29,835 crores as at the end of January 2003,
representing broadly, the assets of US 64 scheme, assured return and certain other schemes.
The Specified Undertaking of Unit Trust of India, functioning under an administrator and
under the rules framed by Government of India and does not come under the purview of the
Mutual Fund Regulations.
The second is the UTI Mutual Fund, sponsored by SBI, PNB, BOB and LIC. It is registered
with SEBI and functions under the Mutual Fund Regulations. With the bifurcation of the
erstwhile UTI which had in March 2000 more than Rs. 76,000 crores of assets under
management and with the setting up of a UTI Mutual Fund, conforming to the SEBI Mutual
Fund Regulations, and with recent mergers taking place among different private sector funds,
the mutual fund industry has entered its current phase of consolidation and growth.
The Indian retail brokerage industry consists of companies that primarily act as agents for the
buying and selling of securities (e.g. stocks, shares, and similar financial instruments) on a
commission or transaction fee basis.



Evolution of the Indian Brokerage Market
The Indian broking industry is one of the oldest trading industries that have been around even
before the establishment of the BSE in 1875. Despite passing through a number of changes in
the post liberalization period, the industry has found its way towards sustainable growth. The
evolution of the brokerage market is explained in three phases: pre 1990, 1990-2000, post
2000.
Early years
The equity brokerage industry in India is one of the oldest in Asian region. India had an
active stock market for about 150 years that played a significant role in developing risk
markets and also promoting enterprise and supporting the growth of industry. The routes of
stock market in India began in 1860s during the American civil war that led to a sudden
surge in the demand for cotton from India resulting in setting up of a number of joint stock
companies that issued securities to raise finance. This trend was akin to the rapid growth of
securities markets in Europe and North America in the background of expansion of railroads
and exploration of natural recourses and land development. Bombay at that time was a major
financial centre having housed 31 banks 20 insurance companies and 62 joint stock
companies. In the aftermath of the crash, bank, on whose building steps shares brokers used
to gather to seek stock tips and share news, disallowed them to gather there, thus forcing
them to find a place of their own, which later turned into Dalal Street. A group of about 300
brokers formed the stock exchange in July 1875, which led to the formation of a trust in 1887
known as the Native Shares and Stock Brokers Association.A unique feature of the stock
market development in India was that that it was entirely driven by local enterprises, unlike
the banks which during the pre-independence period were owned and run by the British.
Following the establishment of the first stock exchange in Mumbai, other stock exchanges
came into being in major cities in India, namely Ahmedabad (1894), Calcutta (1908), Madras
(1937), Uttar Pradesh & Nagpur (1940) and Hyderabad (1944). The stock markets gained
from surge and boom in several industries such as jute (1870s), tea (1880s & 1890s), coal
(1904 &1908) etc., at different points of time.



Beginning of New Equity Culture
A new phase in the Indian stock markets began in the 1970s, with the introduction of Foreign
Exchange Regulation Act (FERA) that led to divestment of foreign equity by the
multinational companies, which created a surge in retail investing. The early 1980s witnessed
another surge in stock markets when major companies such as Reliance accessed equity
markets for resource mobilization that evinced huge interest from retail investors. A new set
of economic and financial sector reforms that began in the early 1990s gave further impetus
to the growth of the stock markets in India. As a part of the reform process, it became
imperative to strengthen the role of the capital markets that could play an important role
inefficient mobilization and allocation of financial resources to the real economy. Towards
this end, several measures were taken to streamline the processes and systems including
setting up an efficient market infrastructure to enable Indian finance to grow further and
mature. The importance of an efficient micro market infrastructure came into focus following
the incidence of market abuses in securities and banking markets in 1991 and 2001 that led to
extensive investigations by two respective Joint Parliamentary Committees. The Securities
and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), which was set up in 1988 as an administrative
arrangement, was given statutory powers with the enactment of the SEBI Act,1992. The
broad objectives of the SEBI include
To protect the interests of the investors in securities
to promote the development of securities markets and to regulate the securities
markets
The scope and functioning of the SEBI has greatly expanded with the rapid growth of
securities markets in India in the last fifteen years. Following the recommendations of the
High Powered Study Group on Establishment of New Stock Exchanges, the National Stock
Exchange of India (NSE) was promoted by financial institutions with an aim to provide
access to investors all over the country. NSE was incorporated in Nov 1992 as a tax paying
company, the first of such stock exchanges in India, since stock exchanges earlier were trusts,
being run on no-profit basis. NSE was recognized as a stock exchange under the Securities
Contracts (Regulations) Act 1956 in Apr 1993. It commenced operations in wholesale debt
segment in Jun 1994 and capital market segment (equities) in Nov1994. The setting up of the
National Stock Exchange brought to Indian capital markets several innovations and modern
practices and procedures such as nationwide trading network, electronic trading, greater


transparency in price discovery and process driven operations that had significant bearing on
further growth of the stock markets in India. Faster and efficient securities settlement system
is an important ingredient of a successful stock market. To speed the securities settlement
process, The Depositories Act 1996 was passed that allowed for dematerialization (and
dematerialization) of securities in depositories and the transfer of securities through
electronic book entry..
Rapid growth
The last decade has been exceptionally good for the stock markets in India. In the back of
wide-ranging reforms in regulation and market practice as also the growing participation of
foreign institutional investment, stock markets in India have showed phenomenal growth in
the early1990s. The stock market capitalization in mid-2007 is nearly the same size as that of
the gross domestic product as compared to about 25 percent of the latter in the early 2000s.
Investor base continued to grow from domestic and international markets. The value of share
trading witnessed sharp jump too. Foreign institutional investment in Indian stock markets
showed continuous rise reaching about USD10 ban in each of these years between FY04 to
FY06. Stock markets became intensely technology and process driven, giving little scope for
manual intervention that has been the source of market abuse in the past. Electronic trading,
digital certification, straight through processing, electronic contract notes, online
broking have emerged as major trends InTechnology. Risk management became robust
reducing the recurrence of payment defaults. Product expansion took place in a speedy
manner. Indian equity markets now offer, in addition to trading in equities, opportunities in
trading of derivatives in futures and options in index and stocks. ETFs are showing gradual
growth. Within five years of introduction of derivatives, Indian stock markets now are
ranked first in stock futures and fourth in index futures. Indian stock markets are transaction
intensive and thus rank among the top five markets in this regard. Stock exchange reforms
brought in professional management separating conflicts of interest between brokers as
owners of the exchanges and traders/dealers.while NYSE Group led consortium took stake
in the National Stock Exchange, Deutsche Borse and Singapore Stock Exchange bought
equity in the Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd.



Industry Analysis: Securities Brokerage
The Securities Brokerage Industry is cyclical and comprised of two distinct types of
businesses. Brokerages, also known as financial services companies, strive to meet the
investing needs of their clients, and exchanges facilitate securities trading. Net profits
correlate to the performance of the broader equity market. Some hold up better than their
peers during bear markets.
Brokerage Basics
Brokerages are fairly diversified. A big chunk of the top line comes from filling buy and sells
orders from clients. There are two ways in which a broker can meet a client's trade request.
The broker can act as an intermediary, matching a customer's buy order with a third-party's
sell order and vice versa. In this capacity, the broker acts as an agent, receiving a
"Commission" (highlighted on the Value Line page). As well, the broker can act as a
principal, meeting a customer's order from its own inventory. Revenue from this activity falls
under the heading "Principal Transactions"; it may include gains and losses on the
brokerage's own investments. We usually classify fee-based revenue as "Other". Fees are
calculated as a percentage of a client's assets, and stem from managed mutual funds and
specialized, high-net-worth accounts.
The Function of Exchanges
Exchanges provide a marketplace for traders to buy and sell securities. In years past, trading
took place on large open floors, where buyers and sellers engaged in face-to-face
transactions. Today, most exchanges utilize electronic systems, which allow for fast, efficient
trading. A few still use traditional trading floors, but in conjunction with an electronic
system.Exchanges generate revenue in several ways. Those that concentrate on the equities
market collect fees from listed companies. Both equity and derivative exchanges receive a
payment for each trade that takes place on their platform. The top lines of these companies
perform quite well during volatile markets. Another source of revenue comes from supplying
market data to financial information providers. Too, revenue may be produced from
developing, marketing and distributing technology used in trading and information
processing. Among other means of generating revenue, an exchange may clear third-party or
in-house trades.Compared with those of brokerages, the cost structures of exchanges are more
fixed in nature. Operating performance is linked to transaction volume. Margins expand as


trading increases, and the reverse is true when activity slows. Reductions in fixed costs
enhance operating leverage. Generally, exchanges do not assume heavy debt burdens.
Substantial debt, however, will be taken on to complete a promising acquisition.
Managements endeavour to quickly lighten the burden with improved cash flow.
Brokerage Firm
A brokerage firm, or simply brokerage, is a financial institution that facilitates the buying
and selling of financial securities between a buyer and a seller. Brokerage firms serve a
clientele of investors who trade public stocks and other securities, usually through the firm's
agent stockbrokers. A traditional, or "full service", brokerage firm usually undertakes more
than simply carrying out a stock or bond trade. The staffs of this type of brokerage firm is
entrusted with the responsibility of researching the markets to provide appropriate
recommendations and in so doing them direct the actions of pension fund managers
and portfolio managers alike. These firms also offer margin loans for certain approved clients
to purchase investments on credit, subject to agreed terms and conditions. Traditional
brokerage firms have also become a source of up-to-date stock prices and quotes.
They help lower costs in two ways:
By matching buy and sell orders within the firm's order book, the overall quantity of
stock to be traded can be reduced, thus reducing commissions payable to others by
the brokerage firm.
The broker can split the bid-ask spread with the investor when matching buy and sell
orders - a win-win situation in most cases

Distributor
Many broker-dealers also serve primarily as distributors for mutual fund shares. These
broker-dealers may be compensated in numerous ways and, like all broker-dealers, are
subject to compliance with requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission and one
or more self-regulatory organizations, such as the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
(FINRA). The forms of compensation may be sales loads from investors, or Rule 12b-1 fees
or servicing fees paid by the mutual funds.



Broker
A broker is an individual or party that arranges transactions between a buyer and a seller for
a commission when the deal is executed. A broker who also acts as a seller or as a buyer
becomes a owner party to the deal. Distinguish agentone who acts on behalf of a principal.
In general a broker is an independent agent used extensively in some industries. A broker's
prime responsibility is to bring sellers and buyers together and thus a broker is the third-
person facilitator between a buyer and a seller. An example would be a real estate broker who
facilitates the sale of a property. Brokers also can furnish market information regarding
prices, products, and market conditions. Brokers may represent either the seller (90% of the
time) or the buyer (10%) but not both at the same time. An example would be a stockbroker,
who makes the sale or purchase of securities on behalf of his client. Brokers play a huge role
in the sale of stocks, bonds, and other financial services.
Future of Industry:
India is a thickly populated country with many middle class and upper middle class
people who are interested in investing and who require investment advice for getting
maximum returns with minimum risk. Added to this increasing software companies etc,
where young professionals drawing huge salary but have less knowledge about investment
planning, definitely need help of professional investment advisers and mutual funds

Tax planning:
Tax planning is not a device to reduce tax burden. In fact, it helps savings by
investment in government securities. Savings reduce extravagance, and correspondingly
inflation. Tax saving are permitted only for investment made in government securities and
bonds of priority sectors which ultimately help the nation. Therefore, the savings in tax help
the central and state governments to mobilize funds by way of investments and as such the
government earns much by way of other benefits, by sacrificing small amount of tax. The
Supreme Court in one case observed that Tax planning may be legitimate provided it is
within the framework of law. By tax planning, the government is equally benefited.


Retirement plans:
One of the major services that financial advisers offer is retirement planning. The
financial adviser will typically have great knowledge in the areas of budgeting, forecasting,
taxation, asset allocation and financial tools and products in order to establish realistic goals
and the strategy by which to reach them. In the United States, this will include the use of
several investment tools such as 401(k)/401(k) Roth account(s), Individual Retirement
Accounts/Roth IRAs, mutual funds, stocks, bonds and CDs.
The financial adviser will determine what percentage of the available income is
necessarywhen taking into account the tax liabilities, expected inflation and projected
return on investmentin order to meet a minimum balance by the clients target age of
retirement. This is a fairly straightforward calculation, and there exist many automated tools
that do this. The financial advisers greatest contribution will be that of asset allocation:
determining how to maximize the return on investment while satisfying the clients tolerance

CHAPTER-3
THEORETICAL BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
ORGANISATION OF A MUTUAL FUND
There are many entities involved and the diagram below illustrates the organizational
setup of a mutual fund:

The Evolution
The formation of Unit Trust of India marked the evolution of the Indian mutual fund industry
in the year 1963. The primary objective at that time was to attract the small investors and it
was made possible through the collective efforts of the Government of India and the Reserve
Bank of India. The history of mutual fund industry in India can be better understood divided
into following phases:
Phase1.EstablishmentandGrowthofUnitTrustofIndia-1964-87
Unit Trust of India enjoyed complete monopoly when it was established in the year 1963 by
an act of Parliament. UTI was set up by the Reserve Bank of India and it continued to operate
under the regulatory control of the RBI until the two were de-linked in 1978 and the entire
control was transferred in the hands of Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI). UTI
launched its first scheme in 1964, named as Unit Scheme 1964 (US-64), which attracted the
largest number of investors in any single investment scheme over the years.


UTI launched more innovative schemes in 1970s and 80s to suit the needs of different
investors. It launched ULIP in 1971, six more schemes between 1981-84, Children's Gift
Growth Fund and India Fund (India's first offshore fund) in 1986, Master share (Indias first
equity diversified scheme) in 1987 and Monthly Income Schemes (offering assured returns)
during 1990s. By the end of 1987, UTI's assets under management grew ten times to Rs 6700
crores.
PhaseII.EntryofPublicSectorFunds-1987-1993
The Indian mutual fund industry witnessed a number of public sector players entering the
market in the year 1987. In November 1987, SBI Mutual Fund from the State Bank of India
became the first non-UTI mutual fund in India. SBI Mutual Fund was later followed by Can
bank Mutual Fund, LIC Mutual Fund, Indian Bank Mutual Fund, Bank of India Mutual Fund,
GIC Mutual Fund and PNB Mutual Fund. By 1993, the assets under management of the
industry increased six times to Rs. 47,004 crores. However, UTI remained to be the leader
with about 80% market share.
PhaseIII.EmergenceofPrivateSecorFunds-1993-96
The permission given to private sector funds including foreign fund management companies
(most of them entering through joint ventures with Indian promoters) to enter the mutual fund
industry in 1993, provided a wide range of choice to investors and more competition in the
industry. Private funds introduced innovative products, investment techniques and investor-
servicing technology. By 1994-95, about 11 private sector funds had launched their schemes.
PhaseIV.GrowthandSEBIRegulation-1996-2004
The mutual fund industry witnessed robust growth and stricter regulation from the SEBI after
the year 1996. The mobilization of funds and the number of players operating in the industry
reached new heights as investors started showing more interest in mutual funds. Inventors'
interests were safeguarded by SEBI and the Government offered tax benefits to the investors
in order to encourage them. SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 was introduced by SEBI
that set uniform standards for all mutual funds in India. The Union Budget in 1999 exempted
all dividend incomes in the hands of investors from income tax. Various Investor Awareness


Programmers were launched during this phase, both by SEBI and AMFI, with an objective to
educate investors and make them informed about the mutual fund industry.
In February 2003, the UTI Act was repealed and UTI was stripped of its Special legal status
as a trust formed by an Act of Parliament. The primary objective behind this was to bring all
mutual fund players on the same level. UTI was re-organized into two parts: 1. The Specified
Undertaking, 2. The UTI Mutual Fund
Presently Unit Trust of India operates under the name of UTI Mutual Fund and its past
schemes (like US-64, Assured Return Schemes) are being gradually wound up. However,
UTI Mutual Fund is still the largest player in the industry. In 1999, there was a significant
growth in mobilization of funds from investors and assets under management which is
supported by the following data:
Phase V. Growth and Consolidation - 2004 Onwards
The industry has also witnessed several mergers and acquisitions recently,examples of which
are acquisition of schemes of Alliance Mutual Fund by Birla Sun Life, Sun F&C Mutual
Fund and PNB Mutual Fund by Principal Mutual Fund. Simultaneously, more international
mutual fund players have entered India like Fidelity, Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund etc.
There were 29 funds as at the end of March 2006. This is a continuing phase of growth of the
industry through consolidation and entry of new international and private sector players.
ADVANTAGES OF MUTUALFUNDS
i) Professional investment management
Mutual funds hire full-time, high-level investment professionals. Funds can afford to do so as
they manage large pools of money. The managers have real-time access to crucial market
information and are able to execute trades on the largest and most cost-effective scale.
ii) Diversification
Mutual funds invest in a broad range of securities. This limits investment risk by reducing the
effect of a possible decline in the value of any one security. Mutual fund unit-holders can


benefit from diversification techniques usually available only to investors wealthy enough to
buy significant positions in a wide variety of securities.
iii) Low Cost
A mutual fund let's you participate in a diversified portfolio for as little as Rs.5,000/-, and
sometimes less. And with a no-load fund, you pay little or no sales charges to own them.
iv) Convenience and Flexibility
You own just one security rather than many, yet enjoy the benefits of a diversified portfolio
and a wide range of services. Fund managers decide what securities to trade collect the
interest payments and see that your dividends on portfolio securities are received and your
rights exercised. It also uses the services of a high quality custodian and registrar in order to
make sure that your convenience remains at the top of our mind.
v) Personal Service
One call puts you in touch with a specialist who can provide you with information you can
use to make your own investment choices. They will provide you personal assistance in
buying and selling your fund units, provide fund information and answer questions about
your account status. Our Customer service centers are at your service and our Marketing team
would be eager to hear your comments on our schemes.
vi) Liquidity
In open-ended schemes, you can get your money back promptly at net asset value related
prices from the mutual fund itself.
vii) Transparency
You get regular information on the value of your investment in addition to disclosure on the
specific investments made by the mutual fund scheme



Dis-advantages of mutual funds
1. Professional Management
Some funds doesnt perform in neither the market, as their management is not dynamic
enough to explore the available opportunity in the market, thus many investors debate over
whether or not the so-called professionals are any better than mutual fund or investor him
self, for picking up stocks.
2. Costs The biggest source of AMC income is generally from the entry & exit load which
they charge from investors, at the time of purchase. The mutual fund industries are thus
charging extra cost under layers of jargon.
3. Dilution
Because funds have small holdings across different companies, high returns from a few
investments often don't make much difference on the overall return. Dilution is also the result
of a successful fund getting too big. When money pours into funds that have had strong
success, the manager often has trouble finding a good investment for all the new money.
4. Taxes
When making decisions about your money, fund managers don't consider your personal tax
situation. For example, when a fund manager sells a security, a capital-gain tax is triggered,
which affects how profitable the individual is from the sale. It might have been more
advantageous for the individual to defer the capital gains liability.
TYPES OF MUTUAL FUND SCHEMES


OPENENDED SCHEME
These funds are sold at the NAV based prices, generally calculated on every business day.
These schemes have unlimited capitalization, open-ended schemes do not have a fixed
maturity - i.e. there is no cap on the amount you can buy from the fund and the unit capital
can keep growing. These funds are not generally listed on any exchange. Open-ended funds
are bringing in a revival of the mutual fund industry owing to increased liquidity,
transparency and performance in the new open-ended funds promoted by the private sector
and foreign players. Open-ended funds score over close-ended ones on several counts.

Close-ended schemes
Schemes that have a stipulated maturity period, limited capitalization and the units are listed
on the stock exchange are called close-ended schemes. These schemes have historically seen
a lot of subscription. This popularity is estimated to be on account of firstly, public sector
MFs having floated a lot of close-ended income schemes with guaranteed returns and


secondly easy liquidity on account of listing on the stock exchanges. The closed-ended fund
managed by ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund is ICICI Premier.
Interval schemes
Interval Schemes are that scheme, which combines the features of open-ended and close-
ended schemes. The units may be traded on the stock exchange or may be open for sale or
redemption during pre-determined intervals at NAV related prices.
According to investment objective
Objectives
Mutual funds have specific investment objectives such as growth of capital, safety of
principal, current income or tax-exempt income. In general mutual funds fall into three
general categories:
Equity Funds invest in shares or equity of companies.
Fixed-Income funds invest in government or corporate securities that offer fixed rates
of return.
Balanced Funds invest in a combination of both stocks and bonds.
Growth Schemes:
Growth Schemes are also known as equity schemes. The aim of these schemes is to provide
capital appreciation over medium to long term. These schemes normally invest a major part
of their fund in equities and are willing to bear short-term decline in value for possible future
appreciation.
Income Schemes:
Income Schemes are also known as debt schemes. The aim of these schemes is to provide
regular and steady income to investors. These schemes generally invest in fixed income
securities such as bonds and corporate debentures. Capital appreciation in such schemes may
be limited.


Balanced Schemes:
Balanced Schemes aim to provide both growth and income by periodically distributing a part
of the income and capital gains they earn. These schemes invest in both shares and fixed
income securities, in the proportion indicated in their offer documents (normally 50:50).
Money Market Schemes:
Money Market Schemes aim to provide easy liquidity, preservation of capital and moderate
income. These schemes generally invest in safer, short-term instruments, such as treasury
bills, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and inter-bank call money.
Other schemes
Tax Saving Schemes:
Tax-saving schemes offer tax rebates to the investors under tax laws prescribed from time to
time. Under Sec.88 of the Income Tax Act, contributions made to any Equity Linked Savings
Scheme (ELSS) are eligible for rebate.
Special schemes
Index Schemes:
Index schemes attempt to replicate the performance of a particular index such as the BSE
Sensex or the NSE 50. The portfolio of these schemes will consist of only those stocks that
constitute the index. The percentage of each stock to the total holding will be identical to the
stocks index weightage. And hence, the returns from such schemes would be more or less
equivalent to those of the Index.
Sector Specific Schemes:
These are the funds/schemes which invest in the securities of only those sectors or industries
as specified in the offer documents. e.g. Pharmaceuticals, Software, Fast Moving Consumer
Goods (FMCG), Petroleum stocks, etc. The returns in these funds are dependent on the
performance of the respective sectors/industries. While these funds may give higher returns,


they are more risky compared to diversified funds. Investors need to keep a watch on the
performance of those sectors/industries and must exit at an appropriate time.
Overview of existing schemes existed in mutual fund category:
By nature
1. Equity fund:
These funds invest a maximum part of their corpus into equities holdings. The structure of the
fund may vary different for different schemes and the fund managers outlook on different
stocks. The Equity Funds are sub-classified depending upon their investment objective, as
follows:
Diversified Equity Funds
Mid-Cap Funds
Sector Specific Funds
Tax Savings Funds (ELSS)
Equity investments are meant for a longer time horizon, thus Equity funds rank high on the
risk-return matrix.
2. Debt funds:
The objective of these Funds is to invest in debt papers. Government authorities, private
companies, banks and financial institutions are some of the major issuers of debt papers. By
investing in debt instruments, these funds ensure low risk and provide stable income to the
investors. Debt funds are further classified as:
Gilt Funds: Invest their corpus in securities issued by Government, popularly known as
Government of India debt papers. These Funds carry zero Default risk but are associated with
Interest Rate risk. These schemes are safer as they invest in papers backed by Government.
Income Funds: Invest a major portion into various debt instruments such as bonds, corporate
debentures and Government securities.


MIPs: Invests maximum of their total corpus in debt instruments while they take minimum
exposure in equities. It gets benefit of both equity and debt market. These scheme ranks
slightly high on the risk-return matrix when compared with other debt schemes.
Short Term Plans (STPs): Meant for investment horizon for three to six months. These
funds primarily invest in short term papers like Certificate of Deposits (CDs) and
Commercial Papers (CPs). Some portion of the corpus is also invested in corporate
debentures.
Liquid Funds: Also known as Money Market Schemes, These funds provides easy liquidity
and preservation of capital. These schemes invest in short-term instruments like Treasury
Bills, inter-bank call money market, CPs and CDs. These funds are meant for short-term cash
management of corporate houses and are meant for an investment horizon of 1day to 3
months. These schemes rank low on risk-return matrix and are considered to be the safest
amongst all categories of mutual funds.
3. Balanced funds:
As the name suggest they, are a mix of both equity and debt funds. They invest in both
equities and fixed income securities, which are in line with pre-defined investment objective
of the scheme. These schemes aim to provide investors with the best of both the worlds.
Equity part provides growth and the debt part provides stability in returns.



WORKING OF MUTUAL FUNDS

RISK AND RETURN MATRIX

The risk return trade-off indicates that if investor is willing to take higher risk then
correspondingly he can expect higher returns and vise versa if he pertains to lower risk
instruments, which would be satisfied by lower returns. For example, if an investors opt for
bank FD, which provide moderate return with minimal risk. But as he moves ahead to invest
in capital protected funds and the profit-bonds that give out more return which is slightly
higher as compared to the bank deposits but the risk involved also increases in the same


proportion..Thus investors choose mutual funds as their primary means of investing, as
Mutual funds provide professional management, diversification, convenience and liquidity.
That doesnt mean mutual fund investments risk free. This is because the money that is
pooled in are not invested only in debts funds which are less riskier but are also invested in
the stock markets which involves a higher risk but can expect higher returns. Hedge fund
involves a very high risk since it is mostly traded in the derivatives market which is
considered very volatile.
Managing risk
Use to reduce your investment risk considerably and reach your long-term financial goals
Mutual funds offer incredible flexibility in managing investment risk. Diversification and
Automatic Investing (SIP) are two key techniques you can.
Diversification
When you invest in one mutual fund, you instantly spread your risk over a number of
different companies. You can also diversify over several different kinds of securities by
investing in different mutual funds, further reducing your potential risk. Diversification is a
basic risk management tool that you will want to use throughout your lifetime as you
rebalance your portfolio to meet your changing needs and goals. Investors, who are willing to
maintain a mix of equity shares, bonds and money market instruments.

Indian Market Scenario
Indian capital market has seen unprecedented boom in its activity in the last 15 years in terms
of number of stock exchanges, listed companies, trade volumes, market intermediaries,
investor population, etc. However, this surge in activity has brought with it numerous
problems that threaten the very survival of the capital markets in the long run, most of which
are due to the large volume of paper work involved and paper based trading, clearing and
settlement. Until the late eighties, the common man kept away from capital market and thus
the quantum of funds mobilized through the market was meager. A major problem, however,
continued to plague the market. The Indian markets were drowned in shares in the form of
paper and hence it was problematic to handle them. Fake and stolen shares, fake signatures
and signature mismatch, duplication and mutilation of shares, transfer problems, etc. The


investors were scared and were under compensated for the risk borne by them. The century
old system of trading and settlement requires handling of huge volumes of paper work. This
has made the investors, both retail and institutional, wary of entering the capital market.
However, lack of modernization become a hindrance to growth and resulted in creation of
cumbersome procedures and paper work. However, the real growth and change occurred
from mid-eighties in the wake of liberalization initiatives of the Government. The reforms in
the financial sector were envisaged in the banking sector, capital market, securities market
regulation, mutual funds, foreign investments and Government control. These institutions and
stock exchanges experienced that the certificates are the main cause of investors` disputes
and arbitration cases. Since the paperwork was not matching the rapid growth so there was a
need for a better system to ensure removal of these impediments.Government of India
decided to set up a fully automated and high technology based model exchange that could
offer screen-based trading and depositories as the ultimate answer to all such reforms and
eliminate various bottlenecks in the capital market, particularly, the clearing and settlement
system in stock exchanges.[1] A depository in very simple terms is a pool of pre-verified
shares held in electronic mode which offers settlement of transactions in an efficient and
effective way.
Evaluating portfolio Performance
It is important to evaluate the performance of the portfolio on an on-going basis. The
following factors are important in this process: Consider long-term track record rather than
short-term performance. It is important because long-term track record moderates the
effects which unusually good or bad short-term performance can have on a fund's track
record. Besides, longer-term track record compensates for the effects of a fund manager's
particular investment style. Evaluate the track record against similar funds. Success in
managing a small or in a fund focusing on a particular segment of the market cannot be relied
upon as an evidence of anticipated performance in managing a large or a broad based
fund. Discipline in investment approach is an important factor as the pressure to perform can
make a fund manager susceptible to have an urge to change tracks in terms of stock selection
as well as investment strategy. The objective should be to differentiate investment skill of the
fund manager from luck and to identify those funds with the greatest potential of future
success.

5 Ways to measure the mutual fund risk
The distributors have a large variety of products to offer to the prospective investors. But the
catch here is a large number of companies offering similar products to the investors. Thus
there are large numbers of mutual fund products flooding the market. So, there should be
some factors, which will compare these four AMCs. These comparative factors are:
Treynors ratio
Treynors measure is called as risk to volatility ratio. Treynors considers portfolio beta as a
measure of risk. Portfolio beta is the average beta of individual assets in the given portfolio.
TR= (RP-RF)/
where,
RP= Expected return
RF= Risk free return
= Beta of the portfolio
Sharpe ratio
While an investor seeks to generate high returns the equation arises, how high? Thought the
sky can be the limit, usually one asks for returns, which are higher than those, which we are
normally accustomed to. These are returns from risk-less instruments like treasury bills,
government securities or bank savings deposits. So the aim of investing seems to be to
generate returns in excess of the risk free return. At the same times high returns are generally
associated with a high degree of volatility. The Investors accept this volatility only because
they want higher returns. The Sharpe ratio represents this trade off between risk and returns.
At the same time it also factors in the desire to generate returns, which are higher than those
from risk free returns.



SHARPES RATIO:

Where,
R= Expected return
RF= Risk free return
= Standard deviation
The Sharpe ratio is the returns generated over the risk free rate, per unit of risk. Risk in this
case is taken to be funds standard deviation. As standard deviation represents the total risk
experienced by a fund, the Sharpe ratio reflects the returns generated by undertaking all
possible risks. A higher Sharpe ratio is therefore better as it represents a higher return
generated per unit of risk. Thus the Sharpe ratio should be used to compare the performance
of funds. Alternatively one can compare the Sharpe ratio of a fund with that of its benchmark
index. If the only information available is that the Sharpe ratio of a fund is 1.2, no meaningful
inference can be drawn as nothing is known about the peer group performance. The Shape
ratio uses standard deviation as its risk component; a low standard deviation can unduly
influence results. Thus a fund with low returns but with a relatively mild standard deviation
can end up with a high Sharpe ratio. Such a fund will have a vary tranquil portfolio and not
generative high returns. For an investor who puts in all his/her money in a single fund, Sharpe
ratio is a useful measure of risk-adjusted return. This is because standard deviation measures
total risk and this is the case with a single portfolio. The Sharpe ratio tells us whether a
portfolio returns are due to smart investment decisions or a excess risk. This measurement is
very useful because although one portfolio or fund reaps higher returns than its peers, it is
only a good investment if those higher returns do not come with too much additional risk.
The greater a portfolios Sharpe ratio, the better its risk-adjusted performance has been.



Beta
A measure of the volatility, or systematic risk, of security or a portfolio in comparison to the
market as whole a beta of 1 indicates that securitys price will move with the market. A beta
is less than 1 means that the security will be less volatile than the market. A beta of greater
than 1 indicates that the securitys price will be more volatile than the market. For example, if
a stocks beta is 1.2, its theoretically 20% more volatile on the market.
Calculating BETA
BETA is ascertained mathematically by finding the covariance of the returns of the
scrip to those of the market and then dividing it by the variance of the market return.
As a market professional one is aware of his / her investment objectives and how much
risk he/she can assume and can best decide whether to use weekly, monthly or daily
pricing information in beta calculation.For this study, Historical data for benchmark
indices-BSE 200, NIFTY, CNX 500, SENSEX and NAV performance of each of the
funds have been collected

Where,
n Number of days
x Returns of the index
y Returns of the fund
R-squared
R-squared measures the relationship between a portfolio and its benchmark. It can be thought
of as a percentage from 1 to 100.R-squared is not a measure of the performance of a
portfolio. A great portfolio can have a very low R-squared. It is simply a measure of the
correlation of the portfolio's returns to the benchmark's returns. R-squared can be used to
ascertain the significance of a particular beta or alpha. Generally, a higher R- squared will
indicate a more useful beta figure. If the R-squared is lower, then the beta is less relevant to

the fund's performance General Range for R-Squared:
A. 70-100% = good correlation between the portfolio's returns and the benchmark's returns
B 70% = average correlation between the portfolio's returns and the benchmark's returns
C 40% = low correlation between the portfolio's returns and the benchmark's returns.
Standard Deviation
In the core of the fund analysis activity lie the twin pursuits of judging returns and
risk. Stripped of a lot of the complexity, this task involves determining a
fund's average performance over a period of time. Standard Deviation gives a
quality rating of an average. The Standard Deviation of an average is the amount
by which the numbers that go into an average deviate from that average. It
tells us how closely an average represents the underlying numbers.If the
individual monthly performances are very different from the average, then that
fund is risky, delivering high returns in some months and poor returns in others. If
they are mostly similar, then the fund is a low risk one, with about the same
returns month after month. A high Standard Deviation may be a measure of
volatility, but it does not necessarily mean that such a fund is worse than one with
a low Standard Deviation. If the first fund is a much higher performer than the
second one, the deviation will not matter much.

Variance:

JENSEN MEASURE: This measure developed by Michael Jensen. The formula for
Jensen measure is: (RP RF) = + ( RM RF) + EP
Where, Rp is return of mutual fund portfolio,
Rf is risk free rate of return,
P is the systematic risk of the portfolio,
Rm is the return of benchmark portfolio..

Correlation Co-efficient:
It measures the nature and the extent of relationship between the stock market index returns
and a funds return in a particular period.

INTERPRETATION
Table (4) and graph (3) shows that HDFC top 200 Fund has a much higher average return
over the past five years than other schemes. Looking solely at return figures makes the choice
very clear: One should invest in HDFC top 200 Fund. However, the Treynor ratio paints a
different story.
The Treynor ratio states that SBI blue chip Fund provided 24.16 % return per unit of risk as
measure by beta, while HDFC top 200 Fund only provided an 18.16% return per unit of risk.
SBI blue chip fund has beta of 0.636 means that it is about 63.6% as volatile as its bench
mark index, while HDFC to 200 fund has beta of 1.02 indicates that the ICICI Prudential Top
100 Fund is more almost twice volatile as the bench mark index..
The Treynor ratio actually points to SBI blue chip fund has a better risk-adjusted return.
However, the Treynor ratios are close enough that investors choosing between these
companies should base their decisions on their personal risk tolerance

selected funds. In the ultimate analysis it may be concluded that all the funds have performed
well in the high volatile market movement expect Reliance vision. Therefore it is essential for
investors to consider statistical parameters like Jensens ratio, beta, standard deviation,
sharpes ratio and while investing in mutual funds apart from considering NAV and TOTAL
RETURN in order to ensure consistent performance of mutual funds.
