EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Mutual funds pool money from different investors and invest in different investment sources like stocks, shares, bonds etc. A professional fund manager manages these and returns are paid in form of dividends. Some schemes assured fixed returns that are less in risk and some offer dividends based on the market fluctuations and prices. Mutual funds have to be subscribed in units and the purchase or sale is dependent on NAV (Net Asset Value), taking into consideration the exit and entry load factors into account. This project undertaken deals with Investors with regard to mutual funds that is the schemes they prefer, the plans they are opting, the reasons behind such selections and also this project dealt with different investment options, which people prefer along with and apart from mutual funds. Like postal saving schemes, recurring deposits, bonds, and shares. The findings from this project is that most of the people are hesitant in going for new age investments like mutual funds and prefer to avert risks by investing in less riskier investment options like recurring deposits and so. Also people going for investment in mutual funds are not going for high-risk portfolios and schemes but want to go for medium risk elements. And another finding is that most of the workingwomen do not prefer this type of investments.

INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION TO MUTUAL FUND
Mutual fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common financial goal. This pool of money is invested in accordance with a stated objective. The joint ownership of the fund is thus “Mutual”, i.e. the fund belongs to all investors. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciations realized are shared by its unit holders in proportion the number of units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most 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. A Mutual Fund is an investment tool that allows small investors access to a well-diversified portfolio of equities, bonds and other securities. Each shareholder participates in the gain or loss of the fund. Units are issued and can be redeemed as needed. The fund?s Net Asset value (NAV) is determined each day. 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.

When an investor subscribes for the units of a mutual fund, he becomes part owner of the assets of the fund in the same proportion as his contribution amount put up with the corpus (the total amount of the fund). Mutual Fund investor is also known as a mutual fund shareholder or a unit holder. Any change in the value of the investments made into capital market instruments (such as shares, debentures etc) is reflected in the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the scheme. NAV is defined as the market value of the Mutual Fund scheme?s assets net of its liabilities. NAV of a scheme is calculated by dividing the market value of scheme?s assets by the total number of units issued to the investors.

NEED OF RESEARCH & BACKGROUND

History of Mutual Fund in India: 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-(1964-87):

Unit Trust of India (UTI) was established on 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?s

Second Phase –1987-93(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 Can bank 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.

12 | P a g e

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 Regulation. 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.

MUTUAL FUND AND ITS VARIOUS TYPES OF SCHEMES
A Mutual Fund is kinds of trust that pools the savings of a number of investors, investors who share a common financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciation realized is shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most 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.

3.1.1 9)

Advantages of Mutual Fund:

Professional Management – The basic advantage of funds is that, they are professionally managed by well qualified professional. Investors purchase funds because they do not have the time or the expertise to manage their own portfolio.

b) Diversification – Purchasing units in a mutual fund instead of buying individual stocks or bonds, the investors risk is spread out and minimized up to certain extent. The idea behind diversification is to invest in a large number of assets so that a loss in any particular investment is minimized by gains in others. c) Economies of Scale – Mutual fund buy and sell large amounts of securities at a time, thus help to reducing transaction costs, and help to bring down the average cost of the unit for their investors. d)Liquidity – Just like an individual stock, mutual fund also allows investors to liquidate their holdings as and when they want. e) Simplicity – Investments in mutual fund is considered to be easy, compare to other available instruments in the market, and the minimum investment is small. Most AMC also have automatic purchase plans whereby as little as Rs. 2000, where SIP start with just Rs.50 per month basis. 3.1.2 Disadvantages of Mutual Fund: a) Professional Management- Some funds don?t perform according to the market, as their management is not dynamic enough to explore the available opportunity in the market, thus investor

14 | P a g e

loose there money. b) 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.

c) 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. d) 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
1. ON THE BASIS OF STRUCTURE:
a) Open – Ended Schemes: An open-end fund is one that is available for subscription throughout the year. These do not have a fixed maturity. Investors can conveniently buy and sell units at Net Asset Value (“NAV”) related prices. The key feature of open-end schemes is liquidity, where you can buy and sell the mutual fund unit at any time. b) Close – Ended Schemes: These schemes have a pre-specified maturity period. One can invest directly in the scheme at the time of the initial issue. Depending on the structure of the scheme there are two exit options available to an investor after the initial offer period closes. First, the Investors can transact (buy or sell) the units of the scheme on the stock exchanges where they are listed. Second, some close-ended schemes provide an additional option of selling the units directly to the Mutual Fund through periodic repurchase at the schemes NAV. SEBI Regulations ensure that at least one of the two exit routes is provided to the investor.

c) 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.

2 .ON THE BASIS OF NATURE:
a) Equity fund: These funds invest a maximum part of their Principal amount into equities holdings. The structure of the fund may vary different for different schemes and the fund manager?s outlook on different stocks. Equity investments are meant for a longer term, thus Equity funds rank
16 | P a g e

high on the risk-return matrix. b) 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. c) Balance fund: 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 Funds. Equity part provides growth and the debt part provides stability in returns.

3.ON THE BASIS OF INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:

a)Growth Schemes: These 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 b) Income Schemes: These 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

17 | P a g e

c) Money Market Schemes: These 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.

REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE

Literature on mutual fund performance evaluation is enormous. A few research studies that have influenced the preparation of this paper substantially are discussed in this section. Sharpe, William F. (1966) suggested a measure for the evaluation of portfolio performance. Drawing on results obtained in the field of portfolio analysis, economist Jack L. Treynor has suggested a new predictor of mutual fund performance, one that differs from virtually all those used previously by incorporating the volatility of a fund?s return in a simple yet meaningful manner.

Michael C. Jensen (1967) derived a risk-adjusted measure of

portfolio performance

(Jensen?salpha) that estimates how much a manager?s forecasting ability contributes to fund?s returns. A sindicated by Statman (2000), the e SDAR of a fund portfolio is the excess return of the portfolio over the return of the benchmark index, where the portfolio is leveraged to have the benchmark index?s standard deviation. S.Narayan Rao , et. Al., evaluated performance of Indian mutual funds in a bear market throughrelative performance index, riskreturn analysis, Treynor?s ratio, Sharpe?s ratio, Sharpe?smeasure , Jensen?s measure, and Fama?s measure. The study used 269 open-ended schemes (I total schemes of 433) for computing relative performance index. Then after excluding funds whose returns are less than risk-free returns, 58 schemes are finally used for further analysis. The results of performance measures suggest that most of mutual fund schemes in the sample of 58were able to satisfy investor?sexpectations by giving excess returns over expected returns based on both premium for systematic risk and total risk. Bijan Roy, et. Al., conducted an empirical study on conditional performance of Indian mutual funds. This paper uses a technique called conditional performance evaluation on a sample of eighty-nine Indian mutual fund schemes .This paper measures the performance of various mutual funds with both unconditional and conditionalform of CAPM, Treynor- Mazuy model and Henriksson

Merton model. The effect of incorporating lagged information variables into the evaluation of mutual fund managers? performance is examined in the Indian context. The results suggest that the use of conditioning lagged information variables improves the performance of mutual fund schemes, causing alphasto shift towards right and reducing the number of negative timing coefficients.

20 | P a g e

Mishra, et al.,(2002) measured mutual fund performance using lower partial moment. In this paper, measures of evaluating portfolio performance based on lower partial moment are developed. Risk from the lower partial moment is measured by taking into account only those states in which return is below a pre-specified “target rate” like risk-free rate.

Kshama Fernandes(2003) evaluated index fund implementation in India. In this paper, tracking error of index funds in India is measured. The consistency and level of tracking errors obtained by some well-run index fund suggests that it is possible to attain low levels of tracking error under Indian conditions. At the same time, there do seem to be periods where certain index funds appear to depart from the discipline of indexation. The methodology is based on the combination of discrete and continuous multi-criteria decision aid methods for mutual fund selection and composition. UTADIS multi-criteria decision aid method is employed in order to develop mutual fund?s performance models. Goal programming model is employed to determine proportion of selected mutual funds in the final portfolios.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is way to systematically solve the research problem. It is a plan of action for a research project and explains in detail how data are collected and analyzed. Research Methodology may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. It can cover a wide range of studies from simple description and investigation to the construction of sophisticated experiment. A clear objective provides the basis of design of the project. Since the main objective of this study is to identify the customers preference, expectation and perception. It was decided to use descriptive research design include, surveys and fact-findings enquires of different kinds, which found out to be the most suitable design in order to carry out the project. MEANING OF RESEARCH: Research is an art of scientific investigation. The advanced learner?s dictionaries of current English lay are down the meaning of research as, “a careful investigation (or) inquiry especially through search for new facts in any branch of knowledge”. Redmen and Mary define research as a “systematic effort to gain knowledge”. RESEARCH DESIGN : A Research design is plan that specifies the objectives of the study, method to be adopted in the collection of the data, tools in analysis of data and helpful to frame hypothesis. “A research design is the arrangement of condition for collection and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to research purpose with economy in procedure”. Research design is needed because it facilitates the smooth sailing of the various project operations, thereby making the project as efficient as possible yielding maximal information with minimal expenditure of effort time and money. Also it minimizes bias and maximizes the reliability of the data collected.

NATURE AND SOURCE OF DATA :
Secondary data: The data which have already been collected and analyzed by someone else is called secondary data. The secondary data was used mainly to support primary data. Company profiles, websites, magazines, articles were used widely. Size of sample: A Sample of 5Schemes each from 5different types of Funds is being taken. Types of Funds taken are follows: ? ? ? ? ? Diversified funds Large cap funds Mid cap funds Small cap funds Sector funds

Sample design: When population elements are selected for inclusion in the sample based on the case of access, it is called convenience sampling method for the convenience of the researcher. STATISTICAL TOOLS USED: To arrange and interpret the collected data the following statistical tools were used. Analysis has been done by using following Statistical tools: ? ? ? ? Sharpe Ratio: It indicates the Risk-Return Performance of Portfolio. Beta: It measures the volatility, or systematic risk, of a security or a portfolio in comparison to the market as a whole. Standard Deviation: It shows the historical volatility. Annualized Return: It indicate the return on return over the period of times.

Findings & Conclusion Recommendation & Suggestion Limitation

69 | P a g e

CONCLUSIONS
1. Diversified Funds
a) The Performance of Tata Dividend & HDFC top200 are better than their competitors because there Sharpe ratio & CAGR are relatively high against their competitors, there Beta & Standard Deviation both are low. b) The Performance of Reliance Diversified & Sundaram are poor because of their low Sharpe ratio & CAGR. Also they are more risky as compare to their competitors because of their high Beta. c) I would suggest giving first priority to HDFC TOP200 and second to Tata Dividend.

2. Sector Funds
a) The Performance of Reliance Banking on the Basis of CAGR is outperforming as compare to its competitors. Its Sharpe ratio is also good after Franklin FMCG. b) Those who want to take high return as well as risk Reliance Banking is good for them because its Beta is also high among its competitors. c) Those who want to keep them safe and able to take less risk, for them Franklin is better option.

3. Large cap Funds
a) SBI & Reliance vision both have good CAGR and Sharpe ratio, But Reliance have very less Beta as compare to SBI, so Reliance should be the priority for investment. b) JM large cap & Birlasunlife adv both is poor performer as far as CAGR and Sharpe ratio is concern, so try to avoid them.

70 | P a g e

4. Mid cap Funds
a) Sundaram select mid cap is the top performer in term of CAGR and Sharpe ratio, but have relatively high Beta, It is good for Risk taking investors. b) UTI is second best performer, also have low Beta as compare to Sundaram select mid cap, so it is good for safe investment. c) CAGR & Sharpe ratio of SBI is relatively low and its Beta and Standard Deviation are very high as compare to its competitors, so try to avoid it.

5. Small cap Funds
a) Sharpe ratio and CAGR of Religare are relatively high, also its Beta is low, and so it is good to invest in this fund. b) Sundaram small cap has very low CAGR & Sharpe ratio.

SUGGESTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS

?

The most vital problem spotted is of ignorance. Investors should be made aware of the

benefits. Nobody will invest until and unless he is fully convinced. Investors should be made to realize that ignorance is no longer bliss and what they are losing by not investing.

?

Mutual funds offer a lot of benefit which no other single option could offer. But most of

the people are not even aware of what actually a mutual fund is? They only see it as just another investment option. So the advisors should try to change their mindsets. The advisors should target for more and more young investors. Young investors as well as persons at the height of their career would like to go for advisors due to lack of expertise and time.

?

Mutual Fund Company needs to give the training of the Individual Financial Advisors

about the Fund/Scheme and its objective, because they are the main source to influence the investors.

?

Before making any investment Financial Advisors should first enquire about the risk tolerance of the investors/customers, their need and time (how long they want to invest). By considering these three things they can take the customers into consideration.

?

Younger people aged fewer than 35 will be a key new customer group into the future,

so making greater efforts with younger customers who show some interest in investing should pay off.

?

Customers with graduate level education are easier to sell to and there is a large

untapped market there. To succeed however, advisors must provide sound advice and high quality.
