10. Introduction of the Study
Literature Review
Panday (2011) Analyzed pattern of investors’ behavior and factors which regulate
their decision of investments in mutual funds by conducting questionnaire survey
on 50 people. He knew that ignorance exists about mutual funds as an investment
option because investors were not aware about benefits they can reap through
mutual funds.
Rangnathan (2006) Examined related aspects of mutual fund selection behavior of
individual investors towards mutual funds in Mumbai city and surveyed 100
educated investors. The study revealed that investors preferred open ended
growth schemes.
Ramamurthy and Reddy (2005) conducted a study of scrutinizing recent trends in
Indian Mutual Fund industry. Authors concluded that major benefits delivered to
small investors by mutual funds are professional management, diversification of
risk, return potential, expedient administration, liquidity, transparency,
affordability, flexibility, wide choice and appropriate regulation.
11. Background of the study
An estimated 76200 mutual funds worldwide currently control about $30
trillion in assets under management (AUM), representing just over 20% of
total global assets under management on behalf of investors worldwide.
Mutual funds have typically come about as an outcome of developed
financial markets, not a cause of it.
12. OBJECTIVES OF STUDY
1. Primary Objective
To show wide range of investment options available in mutual funds by
exhibiting various schemes.
2. Secondary Objectives
Knowing about risk factors involved in mutual funds and generation
of incredible tendency trying to tackle it.
Comparing diverse schemes and concluding apt one to be politely
favored by general public.
To understand recent trends in mutual fund worlds.
Estimating mutual fund as rewarding avenue
To impart brief insight about privileges available from mutual fund
investment.
13. HYPOTHESIS SETTING
H0=Mutual funds are prominent as well as convenient source of
generating side income with latent money lying.
H1=Mutual funds cannot be prominent and convenient source of earning
side income with latent money lying.
H0= Money is invested specifically to avail an advantage of tax.
H1=Money is invested for other motives.
H0=As much as risk is concerned with specific scheme, chances are greater
to have incredible rewards.
H1=Returns from specific schemes do not equate with risk attached with
it.
14. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Sources of data collection Secondary Data

15. DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
Ratios Figures
Current Ratio 2.77:1
Return on assets 21%
Return on equity 26%
Gross profit Ratio 54.48%
Net profit ratio 29.93%
Proprietary ratio/Net worth ratio 0.81:1
Fixed Assets/net worth 0.65:1
Current Assets/Net worth ratio 0.59:1
Current Liability/Net worth ratio 0.21:1
16. Expected versus estimated return
Company Actual return Expected return
ICICI 21.23 13.20
Mirae 34.76 14.85
Birla sunlife 28.1 14.60
DSP blackrock 25.43 13.72
17. From ratio analysis, it was proved that current ratio normally 2:1 is good
for any company while here, SBI mutual fund has even greater portion of
assets than its portion of current liability.
Return on assets is also 21% which is good enough and return on equity
capital employed is 26%.
Turning towards technical aspects, then beta of SBI MF is 0.45 which is <1
so investor would need not to think about prevalence of risk saying silently
that if market goes down, then securities are not going to be affected.
18. Results/Findings
• Systematic investment plan is similar to recurring deposit where an
investor willing to keep some amount for growth motive or for safety
intention invests regularly.
• In many emerging markets and sometimes developed markets, mutual
funds are synthetically grown through first establishing legal and
regulatory framework. Two key aspects of any investment are time as well
as risk.
• When an investor invests money in mutual funds, funds are added to pool,
funds so made are hence invested in equity market in such a way that
even if one incurs losses others shall manage to mitigate losses.
19. LIMITATION OF STUDY
Lack of primary data analysis.
Unable of covering all contents regarding mutual funds due to vast
horizon.
Absence of scheme information documents.
Uncertainty of return from funds.
Market Volatility.
20. SUGGESTION
Most of tax saving mutual funds are ELSS and make investment in equity
market.
ELSS schemes tend to come with lock in period of 3 years which means
that investment cannot be withdrawn till the end of time.
Whereas along with SBI, if a person still is having suspicion about losing
money then he is advised to make one portfolio that are ranked 1 and also
given 5 stars by CRISIL. These excellent funds are
ICICI prudential top 100 funds-18%
Mirae emerging bluechip fund-32%
Birla sunlife equity fund-23%
DSP black rock tax saver fund-27%
21. Conclusion
Indian Mutual Funds have currently over 1.09 crore (10.9 million) SIP
accounts through which investors regularly invest in Indian Mutual Fund
schemes.
SIP is a very convenient method of investing in mutual funds through
standing instructions to debit your bank account every month, without the
hassle of having to write out a cheque each time.
