INTRODUCTION
According to Shakespeare out of this nettle, danger, we pluck this flower, safety'.
The economic development model adopted by India in the post-independence era has been
characterized by mixed economy with the public sector playing a dominating role and the
activities in private industrial sector control measures emaciated from time to time. The
industrial policy resolution was introduced by the government in the 1948, immediately
after the independence. This outlined the approach to industrial growth and development.
The industrial policy statement of 1980 focused attention on the need for promoting
competition in the domestic market, technological up gradation and modernization. A
number of policy and procedural changes were introduced in 1985 and 1986, aimed at
increasing productivity, reducing costs, improving quality, opening domestic market to
increase competition and making free the public sector from constraints.
Overall, in the seventh plan period (1985-86 to 1989-90), Indian industries grew by
an impressive average annual rate of 8.5 percent. The last two decades have seen a
phenomenal expansion in the geographical coverage and financial spread of our financial
system. The spread of the banking system has been a major factor in promoting financial
intermediation in the economy and in the growth of financial savings. With progressive
liberalization of economic policies, there has been a rapid growth of capital market, money
market and financial services industry including merchant banking, leasing and venture
capital. Consistent with this evolution of the financial sector, the mutual fund industry has
also come to occupy an important place.
The prospectus investors have various options to invest his surplus funds, expecting
reasonable returns from his investment .There are various avenues available in the present

CONCEPT OF MUTUAL FUNDS:
Mutual fund is a trust that pools money from a group of investors (sharing common
financial goals) and invest the money thus collected into asset classes that match the stated
investment objectives of the scheme. Since the stated investment objectives of a mutual
fund scheme generally form the basis for an investor's decision to contribute money to the
pool, a mutual fund can not deviate from its stated objectives at any point of time.
Every Mutual Fund is managed by a fund manager, who using his investment management
skills and necessary research works ensures much better return than what an investor can
manage on his own. The capital appreciation and other incomes earned from these
investments are passed on to the investors (also known as unit holders) in proportion of the
number of units they own.

INTRODUCTION TO MUTUAL FUNDS:
The most developed and developing countries the mutual fund cult has been
catching on in India. The important reasons for this interesting occurrence are:
1. Mutual funds make it easy and less costly for investors to satisfy their need for
capital growth, income and/or income preservation.
2. Mutual fund brings the benefits of diversification and money management to the
individual investor, providing an opportunity for financial success that was once
available only to a select few.
Understanding Mutual funds is easy as it's such a straightforward concept. A mutual
fund is a company that pools the money of many investors, its shareholders to invest in a
variety of different securities. Investments may be in stocks, bonds, money market
securities or some combination of these. Those securities are professionally & efficiently
managed on behalf of the shareholders, and each investor holds a pro rata share of the
portfolio -- entitled to any profits when the securities are sold, but subject to any losses in
value as well.
For the individual investor, mutual funds propose the benefit of having someone
else manage your investments and diversify your money over many different securities that
may not be available or affordable to you otherwise. Today, minimum investment
requirements on many funds are low enough that even the smallest investor can get started
in mutual funds.
A mutual fund, by its very nature, is diversified -- its assets are invested in many
different securities. Beyond that, there are many different types of mutual funds with
different objectives and levels of growth potential, furthering your odds to diversify.
A Mutual Fund is a trust registered with the Securities and Exchange Board of India
(SEBI), which pools up the money from individual / corporate investors and invests the
same on behalf of the investors /unit holders, in equity shares, Government securities,
Bonds, Call money markets etc., and distributes the profits. The income earned through
these investments and the capital appreciations realized are shared by its unit holders in
proportion to the number of units owned by them. This pooled income is professionally
managed on behalf of the unit-holders, and each investor holds a proportion of the portfolio

i.e. entitled not only to profits when the securities are sold, but also subject to any losses in
value as well.
For retail investor who does not have the time and expertise to analyze and invest in
stocks and bonds, mutual funds offer a viable investment alternative. This is because:
1. Mutual Funds provide the benefit of cheap access to expensive stocks.
2. Mutual funds diversify the risk of the investor by investing in a basket of assets.
3. A team of professional fund managers manages them with in-depth research inputs
from Investment analysts.
4. Being institutions with good bargaining power in markets, mutual funds have access to
crucial corporate information which individual investors cannot access.
HISTORY OF MUTUAL FUNDS:
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 Phase1964-87
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.
Second Phase1987-1993 (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 InsuranceCorporation 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

RISK AND RETURN ANALYSIS OF MUTUAL FUNDS
RJS Institute of Management Studies 5
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 Phase1993-2003 (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 Phasesince February 2003
In February 2003, following the repeal of the Unit Trust of India Act 1963 UTI wasbifurcated 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.
Mutual funds go back to the times of the Egyptians and Phoneticians 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 later 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 with the twin objective of mobilizing household savings and investing the funds
in the capital market for industrial growth. Household sector accounted for about 80
percent of nations savings and only about one third of such savings was available to the
corporate sector. It was felt that UTI could be an effective vehicle for channelzing
progressively larger shares of household savings to productive investments in the corporate
sector. The process of economic liberalization in the eighties not only brought in dramatic
changes in the environment for Indian industries, corporate sector and the capital market
but also led to the emergence of demand for newer financial services such as issue
management, corporate counseling, capital restructuring and loan syndication. After twodecades of UTI monopoly, recently some other public sector organizations like LIC (1989),
GIC (1991 ), SBI (1987), Can Bank (1987), Indian Bank (1990), Bank of India (1990),
Punjab National Bank (1990) have been permitted to set up mutual funds. Mr. M.R. Mayya
the Executive Director of Bombay Stock Exchange opined recently that the decade of
nineties will belong to mutual funds because the ordinary investor does not have the time,
experience and patience to take independent investment decisions on his own. Importance
of Mutual Fund Small investors face a lot of problems in the share market, limited
resources, lack of professional advice, lack of information etc. Mutual funds have come as
a much needed help to these investors. It is a special type of institutional device or an
investment vehicle through which the investors pool their savings which are to be invested
under the guidance of a team of experts in wide variety of portfolios of corporate securities
in such a way, so as to minimize risk, while ensuring safety and steady return on

investment. It forms an important part of the capital market, providing the benefits of a
diversified portfolio and expert fund management to a large number, particularly small
investors. Now days, mutual fund is gaining its popularity due to the following reasons:
1. With the emphasis on increase in domestic savings and improvement in deployment of
investment through markets, the need and scope for mutual fund operation has
increased tremendously. The basic purpose of reforms in the financial sector was to
enhance the generation of domestic resources by reducing the dependence on outside
funds. This calls for a market based institution which can tap the vast potential of
domestic savings and channelize them for profitable investments. Mutual funds are not
only best suited for the purpose but also capable of meeting this challenge.
2. An ordinary investor who applies for share in a public issue of any company is not
assured of any firm allotment. But mutual funds who subscribe to the capital issue
made by companies get firm allotment of shares. Mutual fund latter sell these shares in
the same market and to the Promoters of the company at a much higher price. Hence,
mutual fund creates the investors confidence.
3. The psycho of the typical Indian investor has been summed up by Mr. S.A. Dave,
Chairman of UTI, in three words; Yield, Liquidity and Security. The mutual funds,
being set up in the public sector, have given the impression of being as safe a conduit
for investment as bank deposits. Besides, the assured returns promised by them haveinvestors had.
4. Great appeal for the typical Indian investor. As mutual funds are managed by
professionals, they are considered to have a better knowledge of market behaviors.
Besides, they bring a certain competence to their job. They also maximize gains by
proper selection and timing of investment.
5. Another important thing is that the dividends and capital gains are reinvested
automatically in mutual funds and hence are not fritted away. The automatic
reinvestment feature of a mutual fund is a form of forced saving and can make a big
difference in the long run.
6. The mutual fund operation provides a reasonable protection to investors. Besides,
presently all Schemes of mutual funds provide tax relief under Section 80 L of the
Income Tax Act and in addition, some schemes provide tax relief under Section 88 of
7/31/2019 Final Draft 2007

the Income Tax Act lead to the growth of importance of mutual fund in the minds of the
investors.
7. As mutual funds creates awareness among urban and rural middle class people about
the benefits of investment in capital market, through profitable and safe avenues,
mutual fund could be able to make up a large amount of the surplus funds available
with these people.
8. The mutual funds attracts foreign capital flow in the country and secure profitable
investment avenues abroad for domestic savings through the opening of off shore funds
in various foreign investors. Lastly another notable thing is that mutual funds are
controlled and regulated by SEBI and hence are considered safe. Due to all these
benefits the importance of mutual fund has been increasing.
GROWTH TREND OF MUTUAL FUND
Opening of the mutual fund industry to the public sector banks and insurance
companies, led to the launching of more and more of new schemes. The mutual fund
industry in India has grown fast in the recent period. The performance is encouraging
especially because the emphasis in India has been on individual investors rather in contrast
to advanced countries where mutual funds depend largely on institutional investors, In
general, it appears that the mutual fund in India have given a good account of themselves
so far.
UTI's annual sale of units crossed Rs.1000 crores mark in 1986 to 87, 2000 crores
mark in 1987-88 and reached Rs.5500 crores mark in 1989 to 90. During 1990 to 91 on
account of decline of corporate interest, sales declined to Rs.4100 crores though individual
sales increased over its preceding year. LICMF has concentrated on funds which includes
life and accident cover. GICMF provide home insurance policy. The bank sponsoredmutual fund floated regular income, growth and tax incentives schemes. Together the eight
mutual fund service more than 15 million investors with UTI alone holds for 13 million
unit holding accounts. Magnum Regular Income Scheme 1987 assured a return of 12
percent but gave 20 percent dividend in 1993, UTI record 26 percent dividend for 1992 to
93 under the unit 1964 scheme. Magnum Tax saving scheme 1988 to 89 did not promise

any return but declared 14 percent dividend in 1993 and recorded a capital appreciation of
15 percent in the first year. Equity oriented scheme have earned attractive returns.
Especially since early 1991 there has been a steady increase in the number of equity
oriented growth funds. With the boom of June 1990 and then again 1991 due to the
implementation of new economic policies towards structure of change the price of
securities in stock market appreciated considerably. The high rate of growth in equity price
led to a high rate of appreciation in the net asset value of the equity oriented funds for
which investors started changing their preferences from fixed income funds to growth
oriented or unfixed income funds. That is why more equity oriented mutual funds were
launched in 1991. Master share provide a respective dividend of 18 per cent in 1993, Can
share earned a dividend of 15 percent in 1993. In general the Unit Trust of India which
manages over 28,000 crores under various schemes has for its service an excellent
reputation.
The concept of mutual funds in India dates back to the year 1963. The era between
1963 and 1987 marked the existence of only one mutual fund company in India with Rs.
67bn assets under management (AUM), by the end of its monopoly era, the Unit Trust of
India (UTI). By the end of the 80s decade, few other mutual fund companies in India took
their position in mutual fund market.
The new entries of mutual fund companies in India were SBI Mutual Fund,Canbank Mutual Fund, Punjab National Bank Mutual Fund, Indian Bank Mutual Fund,
Bank of India Mutual Fund.
The succeeding decade showed a new horizon in Indian mutual fund industry. By
the end of 1993, the total AUM of the industry was Rs. 470.04 bn. The private sector funds
started penetrating the fund families. In the same year the first Mutual Fund Regulations
came into existence with re-registering all mutual funds except UTI. The regulations were
further given a revised shape in 1996.
Kothari Pioneer was the first private sector mutual fund company in India which
has now merged with Franklin Templeton. Just after ten years with private sector players
penetration, the total assets rose up to Rs. 1218.05 bn. Today there are 44 mutual fund
companies in India.

CATEGORIES OF MUTUAL FUND:

Mutual funds can be classified as follow:
Based on their structure:
Open-ended funds: Investors can buy and sell the units from the fund, at any
point of time.
Close-ended funds: These funds raise money from investors only once.
Therefore, after the offer period, fresh investments can not be made into the fund.
If the fund is listed on a stocks exchange the units can be traded like stocks (E.g.,
Morgan Stanley Growth Fund). Recently, most of the New Fund Offers of close-
ended funds provided liquidity window on a periodic basis such as monthly or
weekly. Redemption of units can be made during specified intervals. Therefore,
such funds have relatively low liquidity.
Based on their investment objective:
Equity funds: These funds invest in equities and equity related instruments.With fluctuating share prices, such funds show volatile performance, even losses.
However, short term fluctuations in the market, generally smoothens out in the
long term, thereby offering higher returns at relatively lower volatility. At the
same time, such funds can yield great capital appreciation as, historically, equities
have outperformed all asset classes in the long term. Hence, investment in equity
funds should be considered for a period of at least 3-5 years. It can be further
classified as:

mutual funds vehicle for investors who prefer spreading their risk across various instruments.
Following are balanced funds classes:
i) Debt-oriented funds -Investment below 65% in equities.
ii) Equity-oriented funds -Invest at least 65% in equities, remaining in debt.

STATUTORY REGULATIONS:
There is an association called Associations of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) where all the
mutual fund companies are members. Mutual funds in India are governed by the Securities
Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mutual fund regulations since 1996 as amended from time
to time. It is a non-profit organization committed to develop the Indian Mutual Fund
Industry on professional, healthy and ethical lines and to enhance and maintain standards in
all areas with a view to protecting and promoting the interests of Mutual Funds and their
unit holders. Mutual Fund both conceptually and operationally is different from other
savings instruments. Mutual Funds invest in instruments of capital markets which have
different risk-return profile. It is very necessary that the investors understand properly the
conceptual framework of Mutual Fund and its operational features. AMFI therefore thought
it appropriate to produce a booklet in the form of an investors concise guide that will
explain in simple language the concept and working of Mutual Funds. All the mutual funds
must get registered with SEBI. The only exception is the UTI, since it is a corporation
formed under a separate Act of Parliament. The main statutory regulations protecting the
interest of the investors are as follows:
On the basis of performance of the mutual funds the investors should decide when to
enter / exit from a mutual fund scheme.
Mutual funds are required to send annual report or abridged annual report to the unit
holders at the end of the year.
In case the complaints are not solved by the trustees of the mutual fund, the investors
can approach SEBI for redressal of their complaints / grievances.
The government has taken sufficient initiatives through SEBI to safeguard the interest
of the individual investors who have invested in mutual fund schemes.
Members shall not, in respect of any securities, be party to-
i.
Creating a false market,ii. Price rigging or manipulation
iii. Passing of price sensitive information to brokers, Members of stock exchanges and
other players in the capital markets or take action which is unethical or unfair to
investors.
