INDUSTRY
OVERVIEW
INDUSTRY PROFILE
A mutual fund is a type of professionally managed collective investment vehicle that pools money
from many investors to purchase securities. A common pool of money into which investor put their
contribution. This money is to be invested according to the pre-stated objectives of the fund. Ownership
of the fund is joint or mutual amongst all investors -equivalent to the contribution made as a proportion of
the overall fund Ownership through holding of units at NAV
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.3
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.4

LITERATUER REVIEW
Ashraf and Sharma, 2014 Performance Evaluation of Indian Equity Mutual Funds against
Established Benchmarks Index International Journal of Accounting Research.
In this paper, an attempt has been made to analyses the performance of equity mutual funds industry
against risk free rate and benchmarks return over the five years. The samples consists 10 growths
oriented- open ended- equity mutual fund schemes belong to 5 public and 2 private mutual fund
companies. Results are tested through risk-return analysis, Coefficient of Variation, Treynors ratio,
Sharps ratio, Jensens measure, Famas measure and Regression analysis. The data used is monthly
closing NAVs and benchmark market index closing for the study period of April 2007 to March 2012.
The risk return analysisrevealed that out of 10 schemes 3 have underperform the market, 7 are found to
havelower total risk than the market and all the schemes have given returns higher than risk free rates.
The Treynor ratio of all the mutual funds scheme are over perform the benchmark market index and
Sharpe ratio of 3 mutual funds scheme underperform the benchmark market index. The result of
regression analysis suggests that benchmark market return index has statistically significant impact on
mutual fund return at 5% level of significance.
24
The asset management industry globally has shown a steady growth trajectory. Developed countries
economy is cooling down or at least slow-down, investors are moving out of saturated markets like US,
UK and Europe, characterized by their increasing levels of debt and looking towards emerging markets
such as India, China, Brazil, Turkey to give a new direction to growth.
A mutual fund is the ideal investment vehicle for today's complex and modern financial scenario. Markets
for equity shares, bonds and other fixed income instruments, real estate, derivatives and other assets have
become mature and information driven. Price changes in these assets are driven by global events
occurring in faraway places. A typical individual is unlikely to have the knowledge, skills, inclination and
time to keep track of events, understand their implications and act speedily. An individual also finds it
difficult to keep track of ownership of his assets, investments, brokerages dues and bank transactions etc.
A mutual fund is the answer to all these situations.
25
There are around 58 Asset Management Companies (AMC) offering mutual funds in India. All these fund
houses have several mutual fund schemes in each segment like equity, debt, gilt and liquid funds. Out of
which equity segment is flourished and most of the investors are attracted towards equity mutual fund
schemes. Because of availability of wide range of equity MF schemes in each AMC, it would be difficult
for the investor to choose the best scheme.
It is appropriate to consider risk and return of each fund to yield better returns before taking investment
decision. Hence Present study is an attempt of identifying risk and returns of equity funds and comparing
the same with bench mark returns and peers to help mutual fund investors in choosing better funds as
investment avenue

Ms.M.V.Subha1, Ms. S. Jaya Bharathi An Empirical Study on the Performance of Select Mutual Fund
Schemes in India
This paper has mainly aimed at examining the investment performance of Indian Mutual funds in terms of
a) Sharpe Ratio b) Treynor Ratio and c) Jensen differential return measure. The study used daily NAV
for 51 mutual fund schemes for a period of one year from 1st October 2004 to 30th September 2005, and
the empirical results reported here indicated a mixed performance of sample schemes during the study
period. The Sharpe Ratio indicates good performance by majority of the scheme, while in terms of
Treynor ratio only few schemes show good performance. The Jensens measure, alpha is positive for 98%
of the funds which shows that the funds are generating good returns. The returns of the funds are positive
and hence in general we can say that the performance of the Mutual funds during this period is
satisfactory. However we have to note that except one scheme no other scheme has produced excess
return in the market and the funds are not adequately diversified. With the positive outlook at the Capital
Market, we can hope that the Mutual fund industry would perform better in the days to come.

Theodore Prince Frank Bacon Analyzing Mutual Fund Performance Against Established Performance
Benchmarks: A Test of Market Efficiency Research in Business and Economics Journal
The efficient market hypothesis maintains that active investment management is pointless. Rather, an
investor is better off deploying a passive investment strategy by utilizing a market index alternative.
However, the existence of a significant mutual fund industry illustrates a belief to the contrary. This
paper analyzes the small cap growth stock sector of the mutual fund industry against risk-free and market
returns over the ten years 1997-2006. Results are tested against a toolkit of performance benchmarks to
see if expected performance closely corresponds to the actual results.
Development of various
performance benchmarks has allowed investors to quantitatively assess various portfolio alternatives and
has established that diversification can reduce systematic risk. Mutual funds are a way for most investors
to achieve these results without the need for expensive research and excessive trading costs. The results
indicate that some excess returns have been generated; however, beyond a handful of the funds, it is
impossible to rely upon a single benchmark as a reliable indicator of even past performance. A portfolio
approach of combining the benchmarks does not seem to work any better. The evidence tends to support
market efficiency since for the most part, the actively managed funds examined in this study produced
returns that were largely expected.

Dr. R.S. Rai, Dr. T.V. Raman, Mr. Gaurav Shreekant, Volume : 4 | Issue : 12 | Dec 2014 Comparing
Returns Between Large and Mid & Small Cap Equity Mutual Funds in India Indian Journal of
Applied Research
Mutual funds are increasingly becoming popular vehicles of investments in financial markets worldwide.
In this paper we attempt to test two popular beliefs w.r.t. mutual funds performance. The first belief being
that the mid and small cap funds provide higher returns to investors than the large-cap funds. The
second belief being that active management of funds by fund mangers results into superior returns by
funds than their respective benchmark indices. In the present study an attempt has been made to compare
the performance of returns of largecap and mid & small-cap equity mutual funds in India between
them as well with their benchmark indices over one, three and five year time durations. In all, 40 equity
open ended mutual fund schemes are selected - 22 large-cap and 18 mid & small-cap schemes and their
annualized over last 1, 3, and 5-years are compared. It is observed that the mid & small-cap schemes
performed significantly better than the large-cap schemes over all the three selected periods. It is also
found that during all the three time durations, the average annualized returns of in both of the selected
categories to be significantly superior to their respective benchmark indices.

Sahil Jain Analysis of Equity Based Mutual Funds in India. IOSR Journal of Business and
Management (IOSRJBM)
The last decade has seen a tremendous growth in the mutual fund industry. As per the latest data the
assets under management in this industry is more than Rs 6.8 thousand billion. Today the Indian market is
flooded with more than a thousand mutual fund schemes, promising better returns than others. In this
paper an attempt has been made to analyze the performance of equity based mutual funds. A total of 45
schemes offered by 2 private sector companies and 2 public sector companies, have been studied over the
period April 1997 to April 2012 (15 years). The analysis has been made using the risk-return relationship
and Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). The overall analysis finds that HDFC and ICICI have been the
best performers, UTI an average performer and LIC the worst performer which gave below- expected
returns on the risk-return relationship.

INTRODUCTION
TO TOPIC
31
CONCEPT
A mutual fund is pool money collected from investor and it invested according to investment objectives.
A mutual fund is created when investor put their money together. It is therefore a pool of investors fund.
The term mutual means that the investors contribute to the pool and also benefit from the pool. There are
no other claimants to the funds. The pool of fund held mutually by investors is the mutual fund.
32
SPONSOR:
Sponsor is the person who acts alone or in combination with another body corporate to establish a
mutual fund.
TRUSTEE:
The main responsibility of the Trustee is to safeguard the interest of the unit holders and ensure
that the AMC functions in the interest of investors and in accordance with the SEBI Regulations.
is required to be approved by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to act as an asset
management company of the Mutual Fund.
33
Mutual Fund.
CUSTODIAN:
A custodian handles the investment back office of a mutual fund. Its responsibilities include
receipt and delivery of securities, collection of income, distribution of dividends, and segregation of
assets between schemes. The sponsor of a mutual fund cannot act as a custodian to the fund. For example,
Deutsche Bank is a custodian, but it cannot service Deutsche Mutual Fund, its mutual fund arm.
DISTRIBUTOR:
An individual or an entity facilitating buying and selling of units of mutual fund by investors.
A distributor earns upfront/trail commission for bringing in investors into the mutual fund schemes.
34
35
AS PER CONSTITUTION
C. Interval Scheme:
These schemes combine the features of open ended and close ended schemes. They may be traded on
the stock exchange or may be open for sale or redemption during pre-determined intervals at NAV based
prices.
Hybrid Schemes:
These schemes are commonly known as balanced schemes. These schemes invest in both Equity as
well as Debt. By investing in a mix of this nature, balanced schemes seek to attain the objective of income and
moderate capital appreciation and are ideal for investors with a conservative, long term orientation.
36
Gilt Funds:
Gilt Funds are mutual funds that invest only in government securities. They are preferred by risk
averse and conservative investors who wish to invest in the shadow of secure government bonds.
Description: Since gilt funds invest only in government bonds, investors are protected from credit risk.
Sector Funds:
Sector funds portfolios consist of investments in only one industry or sector of the market such as
Information Technology, Pharmaceuticals or Fast Moving Consumer Goods. Since sector and company
specify risk than diversified equity funds
Index Funds:
An index fund tracks the performance of a specific stock market index. The objective is to match the
performance of the stock market by tracking an index that represents the overall market. The fund invests in shares
that constitute the index and in the same proportions the index.

RESEARCH
METHODOLGY
38
INTRODUCTION
A mutual fund is a professionally managed type of collective investment scheme that pools money from
many investors and invests it in stocks, bonds, short-term money market instruments and other securities.
There are many reasons why investors prefer mutual funds. Buying shares directly from the market is one
way of investing. But this requires spending time to find out the performance of the company whose share
is being purchased, understanding the future business prospects of the company, finding out the track
record of the promoters and the dividend, bonus issue history of the company etc. An informed investor
needs to do research before investing. However, many investors find it cumbersome and time consuming
to pore over so much of information, get access to so much of details before investing in the shares.
Investors therefore prefer the mutual fund route. They invest in a mutual fund scheme which in turn takes
the responsibility of investing in stocks and shares after due analysis and research. The investor need not
bother with researching hundreds of stocks. It leaves it to the mutual fund and its professional fund
management team.
As we have seen that there are many Mutual Fund schemes in India. The investor is has very large
number of option which is a benefit but at the same time a demerit because it is hard to choose among
large number of schemes which scheme to choose. And if the customer chooses wrong scheme he would
end up making lose instead of profit. So, this study is focused on solving the investors confusion
regarding which scheme to choose by analysing their risk and return. We have taken 20 Equity Mutual
Fund schemes and their return for last 5 years.
39
PROBLEM STATEMENT:
In a competitive situation with multiple mutual funds operating in Indian market, it is necessary to
know about the performance of different mutual funds as the investor chooses the scheme based on the
performance of the mutual fund. In this study, our focus is upon performance of different Equity Mutual
Funds schemes. Hence our study is conducted to solve the problem of the investor in choosing among
different schemes.
Hypothesis:
H0: The return of mutual fund schemes is higher than the benchmark index.
H1: The return of mutual fund schemes is lower than the benchmark index.

DATA
ANALYSIS
42
Beta:
It describes the relationship between the stocks return and the index returns. It is a measure of the
volatility of a security as compared to the market as whole. Beta signifies the risk or volatility relative to
the Benchmark indices.
By, definition benchmark indices hold Beta of 1. For example if funds Beta is 1.2, it simply
means that fund is 1.2 times more volatile than the benchmark index.
B = COV(x, y) / Var(x)
Alpha:
A measure of performance on a risk-adjusted basis. Alpha, often considered the active return on
an investment, gauges the performance of an investment against a market index used as a benchmark,
since they are often considered to represent the markets movement as a whole. The excess returns of
a fund relative to the return of a benchmark index is the fund's alpha.
Alpha is most often used for mutual funds and other similar investment types. It is often
represented as a single number (like 3 or -5), but this refers to a percentage measuring how
the portfolio or fund performed compared to the benchmark index (i.e. 3% better or 5% worse)
= {(Fund return-Risk free return) (Funds beta) *(Benchmark return- risk free
return)}.
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.
r=
nxy (x)( y)
43
Co-efficient of Determination:
The square of correlation of co-efficient is the co-efficient of determination. It gives the
percentage variation in the stocks return explained by the variation in the market return.
= r2
Treynors Ratio:
The Treynor Ratio, named after Jack L. Treynor, one of the fathers of modern portfolio theory. It
is also known as Reward to Volatility ratio. To calculate Treynor ratio, risk free rate is subtracted from
portfolio returns and dividing the result by the Beta of the portfolio returns. Treynor ratio is a riskadjusted measure based on Beta.
T = R RFR/
Where,
R Return on investment.
RFR Risk Free Return
Sharpes Ratio:
Sharpes ratio is also known as Reward to Risk ratio. The Sharpe ratio is the average return
earned in excess of the risk-free rate per unit of volatility or total risk. To calculate Sharpe ratio, risk free
rate is subtracted from portfolio returns and dividing the result by the Standard deviation of the portfolio
returns. The higher the Sharpe ratio better the performance.
S = R RFR/
Mean:
The mean average is a quick mathematical measure of a number of data points as a unit. It will tell
you important information about a group of data in your business. It is almost a summary of all the data in
your dataset.
Standard Deviation:
The degree that a single value in a group of values varies from the mean (average) of the
distribution. Standard deviation is a statistical measure that uses past performance of an investment or
portfolio to determine the potential range of future performance and assess the probability of that
performance. Standard deviations can be calculated for an individual security or for the entire portfolio

INTERPRETATION:
The current average risk free rate i.e. is the bank rate is 9%
As per the rule of Beta, if scheme Beta is greater than 1 it means that the company is more volatile
than the benchmark, and vice versa.
Only two schemes i.e. BNP Paribas Equity Fund Gr. has Beta < 1. So, the schemes are less
volatile than the Benchmark.
UTI Midcap Fund Growth has highest Beta greater than 1, which means it is more volatile than
Benchmark.
As per the Sharpe ratio definition, the scheme SBI Magnum Midcap Fund Gr. has highest sharpe
ratio i.e. 1.4% means fund has better performance.
The scheme BNP Paribas Equity Fund Gr. has negative sharpe ratio (-0.3733) hence, funds
performance is poor
Jensen ratio indicate how much the fund has outperformed the expected return in comparison to
risk associated, the highest Jensen ratio is of Birla Sunlife India GenNext Fund Gr. with 11.07%.
Hence, the scheme has outperformed the Benchmark by 11.07% in comparison to risk associated.
BNP Paribas Midcap Fund Gr. has lowest Jensen ratio i.e. 0.1192%. hence scheme has
underperformed the Benchmark.

The major findings of the study are as follows:
89
CONCLUSION
This study has been carried out to evaluate the performance of selected 20 equity schemes during
the study period of last 1year, 2 year, 3 year, and 5 year. An attempt has been made to evaluate the funds
performance and managers ability to pick the undervalued stocks. The study revealed that except one all
the sampled schemes have performed better than market. Supporting the established relationship of high
risk- high return, better performing schemes are exposed to higher risk.
In terms of overall performance as measured by portfolio returns Sharpe measure, SBI Magnum
Midcap Fund Gr. is the best scheme, as per trenyor measure Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip Fund- Gr is
the best scheme and as per jenson measure Birla Sunlife India GenNext Fund Gr. is the best scheme.
