PREFACE
In India people usually when think to invest their money, they prefer to invest in safe
investment scheme like in Bank Fixed Deposits, Life Insurance Policies and Gold etc. Where
they earn returns near to 8% to 10%.
According to the statistics around 3% Indian invest in Equity Market. Mutual Fund is Better
option for them who wants to earn more return than Bank F.D. Because Mutual fund is the pool
of resources which invested in diversified portfolio. It helps to earn more than Bank Fixed
Deposit.
Our research report is based on the study of the Rating of selected mutual fund schemes and its
relation with AuM (Asset under Management). The main problem of investor is that they look
at the performance and Rating of the scheme and invest in that scheme which results in increase
of AuM of that scheme and sometimes they are not able to earn that much return from that
scheme which they should earn. Our research will clear the relationship of Rating and AuM,
which will help investors to take decision that in which scheme they should invest.
We took the data of Rating and AuM from the “Mutual Fund Insight” magazine of value
research. We took the data of more than 10 years so that we can clearly see the effect of change
in Ranting of the scheme on AuM of that scheme. We took one and a half month to come on
conclusion. We studied Rating and AuM of 10 schemes of 5 different Mutual Fund House.
We hope that our research will help investors as well as Fund Managers to take decision
regarding investment in Mutual Fund and more people will start investing in Mutual fund.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In Indian Mutual Fund Industry the retail investors are relay upon the Rating and AuM (Asset
under Management) of the schemes for the investments. By seeing high Rating of the scheme
investor assume that the particular scheme is performing well and will give them good
returns. But sometimes it does not happen. Our report will through light on this problem and
help the retail investor and Mutual Fund Manager to take decision whether to relay on Rating
or not.
This report provides analysis of different schemes with yearly rating respectively. We took the
data of Rating and Asset of various schemes of popular mutual fund houses from 2003 to 2015.
We used line graph method for our analysis with secondary axis comparing Rating and Assets.
From our research we found that in almost cases if the Rating of preceding year is high then
Asset of current year increases and vice versa.
According to our report we conclude by observing the data that the improvement in Rating of
the particular scheme the retail investors will be attracted to invest in scheme. So, the
improvement in Rating will increase the Asset under management in next year. The second
reason of increase/decrease in the Asset of the scheme is because of market fluctuation. And
last but not the least, if the Mutual fund Managers are efficient in managing funds, they will
also affect the fluctuation in Asset of the scheme.
We recommend to the retail investors that they should avoid investing in Mutual Fund only by
observing the high Rating and Asset of the schemes. There are other parameters also which
should be consider while investing in the Mutual Fund schemes like Performance & Ranking,
Ratio analysis, Risk and return ratios, total expense ratio, Fund manager tenure and experience,
Scheme asset size.

INTRODUCTION
Mutual funds as an investment vehicle have gained immense popularity in the current scenario,
which is clearly reflected in the robust growth level of assets under management. However, despite
this growth, Penetration level in India is low as compared to other global economy. Assets under
management as a percentage of GDP is less than 5 per cent in India as compared to 70 per cent in
the US, 61 per cent in France and 37 per cent in Brazil. Through this report, we have tried to assess
the key growth drivers for the industry, identifying in the process the factors which may impede
growth in the future. The evolving business and regulatory trends in India have also been
discussed, drawing a comparison with similar developments across other global economies.
To support our analysis, we have also conducted a some secondary research by collecting data
from 79 different books of Mutual Fund Insight to justify our topic. We hope that you find this
report insightful and supportive of further discussion and action. We welcome comments and
observations from the readers of this report to enable us to incorporate any valuable suggestions in
the next report.
Assets under management (AUM) refers to the total market value of investments managed by a
mutual fund, money management firm, hedge fund, portfolio manager, or other financial services
company.
DEFINITION of 'Rating'
1. An evaluation of a corporate or municipal bond's relative safety from an investment standpoint.
Basically, it scrutinizes the issuer's ability to repay principal and make interest payments.
2. An analyst's recommendation on whether to buy, sell or hold a specific stock.
Mutual fund is an important segment of the financial system. It is non-fund based special type of
Institution which acts as an investment conduit. It is a mechanism of pooling together the savings
Of large number of investor for collective investments with an avowed objective of attractive
Yields and appreciation in their value. The SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations 1996 defines a mutual
Fund as “a fund establishment in the form of a trust to raise money through the sale of units to the
Public or a section of the public under one or more schemes for the investing in securities,
Including money market instrument.”

Some basic types of mutual funds are:
Short term debt funds
Gilt funds
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. Present Study
focuses on identification of risk and returns of equity funds by applying performance Evaluation
techniques and suggests the investors about outperforming funds before making their Investment
decisions.

Overview of existing schemes existed in mutual fund category:
1. Equity fund:

different stocks. The Equity Funds are sub-classified depending upon their investment
objective, as follows:
Diversified Equity Funds

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
WHAT IS A MUTUAL FUND?
Mutual fund is the pool of the money, based on the trust who invests the savings of a number of
investors who shares a common financial goal, like the capital appreciation and dividend earning.
The money thus collect is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debenture,
and foreign market. Investors invest money and get the units as per the unit value which we called
as NAV (net assets value). Mutual fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it
offers an opportunity to invest in diversified portfolio management, good research team,
professionally managed Indian stock as well as the foreign market, the main aim of the fund
manager is to taking the scrip that have under value and future will rising, then fund manager sell
out the stock. Fund manager concentration on risk – return trade off, where minimize the risk and
maximize the return through diversification of the portfolio. The most common features of the
mutual fund unit are low cost. The below I mention the how the transactions will done or working
with mutual fund.
ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE OF MUTUAL FUNDS
Mutual funds have organization structure as per their Security Exchange Board of India guideline;
Security Exchange Board of India specified authority and responsibility of Trustee and Assets
Management Companies. The objective is to controlling, to promoted, to regulate, to protect the
investor’s right and efficient trading of units. Operation of Mutual fund start with investors saves
their money on mutual fund, than Mutual Fund manager handling the funds and strategic
investment on scrip. As per the objectives of particular scheme manager selected scripts. Unit
value will become high when fund manager investment policy generates the return on capital
market. Unit return depends on fund return and efficient capital market. Also affects international
capital market, liquidity and at last economic policy. Below the graph indicates how the process
was going on to investors to earn returns. Mutual fund manager having high responsibility inside of
return and how to minimize the risk. When fund provided high return with high risk, investors
attract to invest more funds for same scheme.

The Mutual fund organization as per the SEBI formation and necessary formation is needed for
sooth activities of the companies and achieved the desire objectives. Transfer agent and custodian
play role for dematerialization of the fund and unit holders hold the account statement, but custody
of the unit is on particular Asset Management Company. Custodian holds all the fund units on
dematerialization form. Sponsor had decided the responsibility of custodian when investor to
purchase the fund and to sell the unit. Application forms, transaction slip and other requests
received by transfer agent, middle men between investors and Assets Management Companies.

ORIGIN OF MUTUAL FUND IN INDIA
The history of mutual funds dates backs to 19th century when it was introduced in Europe, in
particular, Great Britain. Robert Fleming set up in 1968 the first investment trust called Foreign
and Colonial Investment Trust which promised to manage the finances of the moneyed classes of
Scotland by spreading the investment over a number of different stocks. This investment trust and
other investments trusts which were subsequently set up in Britain and the US, resembled today’s
close – ended mutual funds. The first mutual in the U.S., Massachusetts investor’s Trust, was set
up in March 1924. This was the open – ended mutual fund.
The stock market crash in 1929, the Great Depression, and the outbreak of the Second World War
slackened the pace of mutual fund industry, innovations in products and services increased the
popularity of mutual funds in the 1990s and 1960s. The first international stock mutual fund was
introduced in the U.S. in 1940. In 1976, the first tax – exempt municipal bond funds emerged and
in 1979, the first money market mutual funds were created. The latest additions are the
international bond fund in 1986 and arm funds in 1990. This industry witnessed substantial growth
in the eighties and nineties when there was a significant increase in the number of mutual funds,
schemes, assets, and shareholders. In the US, the mutual fund industry registered a ten – fold
growth the eighties. Since 1996, mutual fund assets have exceeded bank deposits. The mutual fund
industry and the banking industry virtually rival each other in size.
GROWTH OF MUTUAL FUNDS IN INDIA
By the year 1970, the industry had 361 Funds with combined total assets of 47.6 billion dollars in
10.7 million shareholder’s account. However, from 1970 and on wards rising interest rates, stock
market stagnation, inflation and investors some other reservations about the profitability of Mutual
Funds, Adversely affected the growth of mutual funds. Hence Mutual Funds realized the need to
introduce new types of Mutual Funds, which were in tune with changing requirements and interests
of the investors. The 1970’s saw a new kind of fund innovation; Funds with no sales commissions
called “no load “funds. The largest and most successful no load family of funds is the Vanguard
Funds, created by John Bogle in 1977.
In the series of new product, the First Money Market Mutual Fund (MMMF) i.g. The Reserve
Fund” was started in November 1971. This new concept signalled a dramatic change in Mutual
OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL

Fund Industry. Most importantly, it attracted new small and individual investors to mutual fund
concept and sparked a surge of creativity in the industry.
ADVANTAGES OF MUTUAL FUNDS
Mutual funds have designed to provide maximum benefits to investors, and fund manager have
research team to achieve schemes objective. Assets Management Company has different type of
sector funds, which need to proper planning for strategic investment and to achieve the market
return.
Portfolio Diversification
Mutual Funds invest in a well-diversified portfolio of securities which enables investor to hold a
diversified investment portfolio (whether the amount of investment is big or small). 10
Professional Management
Fund manager undergoes through various research works and has better investment management
skills which ensure higher returns to the investor than what he can manage on his own.
Less Risk
Investors acquire a diversified portfolio of securities even with a small investment in a Mutual
Fund. The risk in a diversified portfolio is lesser than investing in merely 2 or 3 securities.
Low Transaction Costs
Due to the economies of scale (benefits of larger volumes), mutual funds pay lesser transaction
costs. These benefits are passed on to the investors.
Liquidity
An investor may not be able to sell some of the shares held by him very easily and quickly,
whereas units of a mutual fund are far more liquid.
OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL
13 | P a g e
Choice of Schemes
Mutual funds provide investors with various schemes with different investment objectives.
Investors have the option of investing in a scheme having a correlation between its investment
objectives and their own financial goals. These schemes further have different plans/options
Transparency
Funds provide investors with updated information pertaining to the markets and the schemes. All
material facts are disclosed to investors as required by the regulator.
Flexibility
Investors also benefit from the convenience and flexibility offered by Mutual Funds. Investors can
switch their holdings from a debt scheme to an equity scheme and vice-versa. Option of systematic
(at regular intervals) investment and withdrawal is also offered to the investors in most open-end
schemes.
Safety
Mutual Fund industry is part of a well-regulated investment environment where the interests of the
investors are protected by the regulator. All funds are registered with SEBI and complete
transparency is forced.
Difficulty in Selecting a Suitable Fund Scheme
Many investors find it difficult to select one option from the plethora of funds/schemes/plans
available. For this, they may have to take advice from financial planners in order to invest in the
right fund to achieve their objectives
Role of AMFI (Association Mutual Fund in India)
The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) is dedicated to developing the Indian Mutual
Fund Industry on professional, healthy and ethical lines and to enhance and maintain standards in
OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL
14 | P a g e
all areas with a view to protecting and promoting the interests of mutual funds and their unit
holders.
AMFI working group on Best Practices for sales and marketing of Mutual Funds under the
Chairmanship of Shri B. G. Daga, Former Executive Director of Unit Trust of India with Shri
Vivek Reddy of Pioneer ITI, Shri Alok Vajpeyi of DSP Merrill Lynch, Shri Nikhil Khattau of Sun
F & C and Shri Chandrashekhar Sathe, Formerly of Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund has suggested
formulation of guidelines and code of conduct for intermediaries and this work has been ably done
by a sub-group consisting of Shri B. G. Daga and Shri Vivek Reddy.
Recent Trend of Mutual Fund
India is at the first stage of a revolution that has already peaked in the U.S. The U.S. boasts of an
Asset base that is much higher than its bank deposits. In India, mutual fund assets are not even
10% of the bank deposits, but this trend is beginning to change. Recent figures indicate that in the
first quarter of the current fiscal year mutual fund assets went up by 115% whereas bank deposits
rose by only 17%. (Source: Thinktank, the Financial Express September, 99) This is forcing a large
number of banks to adopt the concept of narrow banking wherein the deposits are kept in Gilts and
some other assets which improves liquidity and reduces risk. The basic fact lies that banks cannot
be ignored and they will not close down completely. Their role as intermediaries cannot be
ignored. It is just that Mutual Funds are going to change the way banks do business in the future.
Challenges for Mutual Fund Industry
1) Lack of Financial Education and Awareness: Financial literacy is the one of the most
fundamental factor impeding the growth of penetration of any financial product in the smaller
cities and towns. Investors need to be made aware of their financial goals and the means to achieve
the same SEBI is making efforts for the investor awareness campaign.
2) Limited Distribution Network: The second critical issue for fund houses to distribute their
products in smaller cities is the availability of quality distribution infrastructure. Fund houses need
infrastructure like branched, adequate number of relationship managers and sales service staff in
these locations to be able to increase their sales volume coming from these geographies.
OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL
15 | P a g e
3) Distribution cost: Cost of establishing A Distribution network in B-15 cities is quite high. It is
the cost per transaction or the low sales volume that makes the pursuit economically unviable or at
least challenging
4) Cultural Bias: Cultural Bias towards physical assets, as of FY13, 46 percent of total individual
wealth in India is invested in physical assets. Although, in the past few decades, the investors have
increasingly relied on financial assets to invest their savings, the contribution of MFs in the asset
portfolio is very low.
The Mutual Fund Industry in India: Opportunities and Challenges
The Indian mutual fund industry finds itself in an economic landscape which has undergone rapid
changes over the past three years. The industry achieved a high water mark when it doubled its
AUM from Rs. 3.6 trillion in FY2007 to Rs. 6.13 trillion in FY2010 – clocking an impressive
growth rate of 16.2% per year. Since then the Indian economy (coupled with the emerging
economies) has faced a slowdown – the most severe of which are happening as this report is being
written. From an average GDP growth rate of 8-9% during the 2008-2011 years, the Indian
economy is now growing at a lack lustre 4.8% growth rate in Q2 2013. Coupled with a steep
decline in the value of the Indian rupee, the mutual fund industry now finds itself in a capricious
global economic environment. However, there is strong reason to believe that the Indian mutual
fund industry has not yet seen its global peak and if proper measures are taken, the industry could
get back on its former growth path.
One of the biggest challenges that the mutual fund industry faces is the lack of healthy
participation from a large part of the country. To illustrate this lack of participation, we first
aggregated the AUMs originating out of each district of India. We then rank ordered all the
districts of India in descending order of their domestic product (GDP) and then partitioned this list
into ten parts. The top 60 districts formed the first decile followed by the second decile and so on.
We then aggregated the AUMs and GDPs for each of these deciles and took the ratio of these two
figures. The AUM/GDP ratio is one of the best indicators of how much of the yearly income in a
given district is being invested into mutual funds.
While the figure of rupees 7.5 trillion of AUM may sound impressive on paper, this figure is
marred by a sharp divide in terms of investment in the first decile of districts and the rest of the
country. Chart 1 on the next page presents this stark 16 contrast. For the country as a whole, the
OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL
16 | P a g e
AUM/GDP stands at approx. 6.99%. When this ratio is calculated for the first decile of districts,
the ratio is 29.52% - slightly lower than the world average. However, the rest of India paints a
dismal picture with the AUM/GDP ratio standing at 1.82%. This skewed origination of AUM in
India is its single biggest challenge and its biggest opportunity at the same time.

Literature Review
Article 1: - RATING EVALUATION OF SELECT EQUITY
FUNDS IN INDIA
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 avenues
Article 2:- A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF RETURNS OF MUTUAL
FUND SCHEMES RANKED 1 BY CRISIL
Mutual fund industry has experienced a drastic growth in the past two decades. Increase in the
number of schemes with increased mobilization of funds in the past few years notes the importance
of Indian mutual funds industry. To fulfill the expectations of millions of retail investors, the
mutual funds are required to function as successful institutional investors. Proper assessment of
various fund performance and their comparison with other funds helps retail investors for making
investment decisions. The main aim of this paper is to evaluate the performance of mutual fund
Schemes ranked 1 by CRISIL and compare these returns with SBI domestic term deposit rates.
Considering the interest of retail investors simple statistical techniques like averages and rate of
returns are used.
The results obtained from the study clearly depicts that, in most of the cases the mutual fund
schemes have failed even to provide the return of SBI domestic term deposits.

Article 3
Academic research often focuses on fund returns, sometimes adjusted for style and market cap
biases. Because fund rating systems play a central role in the asset management industry, we
consider another approach in this paper. Using a Markov modelling of these ratings, we illustrate
that the persistence of the performance is relatively poor with respect to the time horizon of
investors. We show that two facts may explain these results. First, the rating system is not
necessarily time-homogeneous. Second, the importance of style is crucial when comparing the
ratings of mutual funds. However, we show that it is extremely difficult to characterize
quantitatively the style of a mutual fund. We conclude that fund selection is more art than science,
and that quantitative analysis must be combined with qualitative insight.

Research Methodology
Research Objective
The primary objective of doing this research is to “Identify the Rating of different Scheme in
comparison of Assets of the Fund”
Research Design
Research Design is the roadmap for carrying out the research activity in the project. In our project
of “Study of Selected Mutual fund scheme Rating in Related With AUM” we have carried out the
research of which mutual fund is providing higher return by comparing the returns of different
mutual funds and we have also compared whether the mutual fund can beat the market return or
not.
For this research activity
 We have selected 10 mutual funds from Indian market. All funds are in equity diversified
category.
 Data has been collected from Mutual Fund Insight book, value research online, and mutual
fund India web sites.
 Funds selected are mostly preferable by investors.
 Collected Rating and Assets of funds of each July Month for the year 2003 to 2015.

Limitations
 The biggest limitation of this research is, it is not valid for the scheme of mutual funds. It is
valid only for the selected fund on which we have conducted research.
 As we have collected Secondary data from the monthly Magazine Mutual Insight, in this
there were many data missing due to that we have to opt for the scheme website.
 In some of the month there were no appropriate data available due to which we have face
problem to come of it.
 In our data we have face problem that in some months rating were not giving due to which
we cannot get the proper conclusion.
 As we have taken 10 scheme so our research valid only for that 10 scheme. No investor can
take decision for remaining scheme of mutual funds.

CONCLUSION
Looking at the research we have done above we can conclude that Assets of the scheme depends
on the 3 factors
1. Market up down
2. Wise Fund Manager
3. Rating of the scheme
The assets of the scheme some time depends on the market ups and downs it all because if the
market is good then the performance of the scheme will increase due to which there were will more
investment by the investor and vice versa.
If the fund manager of the scheme invests the fund wisely in different equity then the performance
of the scheme will improve due to that the investment increase and assets of the scheme will
increase.
With the help of rating many of the investor are attracted due to good rating due to which they
invest looking at the rating and ignore too look at the performance of the scheme due to which
there will be increase in the assets of the fund.

  • 7. PREFACE In India people usually when think to invest their money, they prefer to invest in safe investment scheme like in Bank Fixed Deposits, Life Insurance Policies and Gold etc. Where they earn returns near to 8% to 10%. According to the statistics around 3% Indian invest in Equity Market. Mutual Fund is Better option for them who wants to earn more return than Bank F.D. Because Mutual fund is the pool of resources which invested in diversified portfolio. It helps to earn more than Bank Fixed Deposit. Our research report is based on the study of the Rating of selected mutual fund schemes and its relation with AuM (Asset under Management). The main problem of investor is that they look at the performance and Rating of the scheme and invest in that scheme which results in increase of AuM of that scheme and sometimes they are not able to earn that much return from that scheme which they should earn. Our research will clear the relationship of Rating and AuM, which will help investors to take decision that in which scheme they should invest. We took the data of Rating and AuM from the “Mutual Fund Insight” magazine of value research. We took the data of more than 10 years so that we can clearly see the effect of change in Ranting of the scheme on AuM of that scheme. We took one and a half month to come on conclusion. We studied Rating and AuM of 10 schemes of 5 different Mutual Fund House. We hope that our research will help investors as well as Fund Managers to take decision regarding investment in Mutual Fund and more people will start investing in Mutual fund.

  • 9. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In Indian Mutual Fund Industry the retail investors are relay upon the Rating and AuM (Asset under Management) of the schemes for the investments. By seeing high Rating of the scheme investor assume that the particular scheme is performing well and will give them good returns. But sometimes it does not happen. Our report will through light on this problem and help the retail investor and Mutual Fund Manager to take decision whether to relay on Rating or not. This report provides analysis of different schemes with yearly rating respectively. We took the data of Rating and Asset of various schemes of popular mutual fund houses from 2003 to 2015. We used line graph method for our analysis with secondary axis comparing Rating and Assets. From our research we found that in almost cases if the Rating of preceding year is high then Asset of current year increases and vice versa. According to our report we conclude by observing the data that the improvement in Rating of the particular scheme the retail investors will be attracted to invest in scheme. So, the improvement in Rating will increase the Asset under management in next year. The second reason of increase/decrease in the Asset of the scheme is because of market fluctuation. And last but not the least, if the Mutual fund Managers are efficient in managing funds, they will also affect the fluctuation in Asset of the scheme. We recommend to the retail investors that they should avoid investing in Mutual Fund only by observing the high Rating and Asset of the schemes. There are other parameters also which should be consider while investing in the Mutual Fund schemes like Performance & Ranking, Ratio analysis, Risk and return ratios, total expense ratio, Fund manager tenure and experience, Scheme asset size.

  • 13. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 4 | P a g e INTRODUCTION
  • 14. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 5 | P a g e INTRODUCTION Mutual funds as an investment vehicle have gained immense popularity in the current scenario, which is clearly reflected in the robust growth level of assets under management. However, despite this growth, Penetration level in India is low as compared to other global economy. Assets under management as a percentage of GDP is less than 5 per cent in India as compared to 70 per cent in the US, 61 per cent in France and 37 per cent in Brazil. Through this report, we have tried to assess the key growth drivers for the industry, identifying in the process the factors which may impede growth in the future. The evolving business and regulatory trends in India have also been discussed, drawing a comparison with similar developments across other global economies. To support our analysis, we have also conducted a some secondary research by collecting data from 79 different books of Mutual Fund Insight to justify our topic. We hope that you find this report insightful and supportive of further discussion and action. We welcome comments and observations from the readers of this report to enable us to incorporate any valuable suggestions in the next report. Assets under management (AUM) refers to the total market value of investments managed by a mutual fund, money management firm, hedge fund, portfolio manager, or other financial services company. DEFINITION of 'Rating' 1. An evaluation of a corporate or municipal bond's relative safety from an investment standpoint. Basically, it scrutinizes the issuer's ability to repay principal and make interest payments. 2. An analyst's recommendation on whether to buy, sell or hold a specific stock. Mutual fund is an important segment of the financial system. It is non-fund based special type of Institution which acts as an investment conduit. It is a mechanism of pooling together the savings Of large number of investor for collective investments with an avowed objective of attractive Yields and appreciation in their value. The SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations 1996 defines a mutual Fund as “a fund establishment in the form of a trust to raise money through the sale of units to the Public or a section of the public under one or more schemes for the investing in securities, Including money market instrument.”

OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 6 | P a g e Some basic types of mutual funds are: Short term debt funds Gilt funds 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. Present Study focuses on identification of risk and returns of equity funds by applying performance Evaluation techniques and suggests the investors about outperforming funds before making their Investment decisions.

The structure of the fund may vary different for different schemes and the fund manager’s 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.

  • 18. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 9 | P a g e INDUSTRY OVERVIEW WHAT IS A MUTUAL FUND? Mutual fund is the pool of the money, based on the trust who invests the savings of a number of investors who shares a common financial goal, like the capital appreciation and dividend earning. The money thus collect is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debenture, and foreign market. Investors invest money and get the units as per the unit value which we called as NAV (net assets value). Mutual fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in diversified portfolio management, good research team, professionally managed Indian stock as well as the foreign market, the main aim of the fund manager is to taking the scrip that have under value and future will rising, then fund manager sell out the stock. Fund manager concentration on risk – return trade off, where minimize the risk and maximize the return through diversification of the portfolio. The most common features of the mutual fund unit are low cost. The below I mention the how the transactions will done or working with mutual fund. ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE OF MUTUAL FUNDS Mutual funds have organization structure as per their Security Exchange Board of India guideline; Security Exchange Board of India specified authority and responsibility of Trustee and Assets Management Companies. The objective is to controlling, to promoted, to regulate, to protect the investor’s right and efficient trading of units.

As per the objectives of particular scheme manager selected scripts. Unit value will become high when fund manager investment policy generates the return on capital market. Unit return depends on fund return and efficient capital market. Also affects international capital market, liquidity and at last economic policy. Below the graph indicates how the process was going on to investors to earn returns. Mutual fund manager having high responsibility inside of return and how to minimize the risk.

OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 10 | P a g e The Mutual fund organization as per the SEBI formation and necessary formation is needed for sooth activities of the companies and achieved the desire objectives. Transfer agent and custodian play role for dematerialization of the fund and unit holders hold the account statement, but custody of the unit is on particular Asset Management Company. Custodian holds all the fund units on dematerialization form. Sponsor had decided the responsibility of custodian when investor to purchase the fund and to sell the unit. Application forms, transaction slip and other requests received by transfer agent, middle men between investors and Assets Management Companies.
  • 20. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 11 | P a g e ORIGIN OF MUTUAL FUND IN INDIA The history of mutual funds dates backs to 19th century when it was introduced in Europe, in particular, Great Britain. Robert Fleming set up in 1968 the first investment trust called Foreign and Colonial Investment Trust which promised to manage the finances of the moneyed classes of Scotland by spreading the investment over a number of different stocks. This investment trust and other investments trusts which were subsequently set up in Britain and the US, resembled today’s close – ended mutual funds. The first mutual in the U.S., Massachusetts investor’s Trust, was set up in March 1924. This was the open – ended mutual fund. The stock market crash in 1929, the Great Depression, and the outbreak of the Second World War slackened the pace of mutual fund industry, innovations in products and services increased the popularity of mutual funds in the 1990s and 1960s. The first international stock mutual fund was introduced in the U.S. in 1940. In 1976, the first tax – exempt municipal bond funds emerged and in 1979, the first money market mutual funds were created. The latest additions are the international bond fund in 1986 and arm funds in 1990. This industry witnessed substantial growth in the eighties and nineties when there was a significant increase in the number of mutual funds, schemes, assets, and shareholders. In the US, the mutual fund industry registered a ten – fold growth the eighties. Since 1996, mutual fund assets have exceeded bank deposits. The mutual fund industry and the banking industry virtually rival each other in size. GROWTH OF MUTUAL FUNDS IN INDIA By the year 1970, the industry had 361 Funds with combined total assets of 47.6 billion dollars in 10.7 million shareholder’s account. However, from 1970 and on wards rising interest rates, stock market stagnation, inflation and investors some other reservations about the profitability of Mutual Funds, Adversely affected the growth of mutual funds. Hence Mutual Funds realized the need to introduce new types of Mutual Funds, which were in tune with changing requirements and interests of the investors. The 1970’s saw a new kind of fund innovation; Funds with no sales commissions called “no load “funds. The largest and most successful no load family of funds is the Vanguard Funds, created by John Bogle in 1977. In the series of new product, the First Money Market Mutual Fund (MMMF) i.g. The Reserve Fund” was started in November 1971. This new concept signalled a dramatic change in Mutual
  • 21. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 12 | P a g e Fund Industry. Most importantly, it attracted new small and individual investors to mutual fund concept and sparked a surge of creativity in the industry. ADVANTAGES OF MUTUAL FUNDS Mutual funds have designed to provide maximum benefits to investors, and fund manager have research team to achieve schemes objective. Assets Management Company has different type of sector funds, which need to proper planning for strategic investment and to achieve the market return. Portfolio Diversification Mutual Funds invest in a well-diversified portfolio of securities which enables investor to hold a diversified investment portfolio (whether the amount of investment is big or small). 10 Professional Management Fund manager undergoes through various research works and has better investment management skills which ensure higher returns to the investor than what he can manage on his own. Less Risk Investors acquire a diversified portfolio of securities even with a small investment in a Mutual Fund. The risk in a diversified portfolio is lesser than investing in merely 2 or 3 securities. Low Transaction Costs Due to the economies of scale (benefits of larger volumes), mutual funds pay lesser transaction costs. These benefits are passed on to the investors. Liquidity An investor may not be able to sell some of the shares held by him very easily and quickly, whereas units of a mutual fund are far more liquid.
  • 22. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 13 | P a g e Choice of Schemes Mutual funds provide investors with various schemes with different investment objectives. Investors have the option of investing in a scheme having a correlation between its investment objectives and their own financial goals. These schemes further have different plans/options Transparency Funds provide investors with updated information pertaining to the markets and the schemes. All material facts are disclosed to investors as required by the regulator. Flexibility Investors also benefit from the convenience and flexibility offered by Mutual Funds. Investors can switch their holdings from a debt scheme to an equity scheme and vice-versa. Option of systematic (at regular intervals) investment and withdrawal is also offered to the investors in most open-end schemes. Safety Mutual Fund industry is part of a well-regulated investment environment where the interests of the investors are protected by the regulator. All funds are registered with SEBI and complete transparency is forced. Difficulty in Selecting a Suitable Fund Scheme Many investors find it difficult to select one option from the plethora of funds/schemes/plans available. For this, they may have to take advice from financial planners in order to invest in the right fund to achieve their objectives Role of AMFI (Association Mutual Fund in India) The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) is dedicated to developing the Indian Mutual Fund Industry on professional, healthy and ethical lines and to enhance and maintain standards in
  • 23. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 14 | P a g e all areas with a view to protecting and promoting the interests of mutual funds and their unit holders. AMFI working group on Best Practices for sales and marketing of Mutual Funds under the Chairmanship of Shri B. G. Daga, Former Executive Director of Unit Trust of India with Shri Vivek Reddy of Pioneer ITI, Shri Alok Vajpeyi of DSP Merrill Lynch, Shri Nikhil Khattau of Sun F & C and Shri Chandrashekhar Sathe, Formerly of Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund has suggested formulation of guidelines and code of conduct for intermediaries and this work has been ably done by a sub-group consisting of Shri B. G. Daga and Shri Vivek Reddy. Recent Trend of Mutual Fund India is at the first stage of a revolution that has already peaked in the U.S. The U.S. boasts of an Asset base that is much higher than its bank deposits. In India, mutual fund assets are not even 10% of the bank deposits, but this trend is beginning to change. Recent figures indicate that in the first quarter of the current fiscal year mutual fund assets went up by 115% whereas bank deposits rose by only 17%. (Source: Thinktank, the Financial Express September, 99) This is forcing a large number of banks to adopt the concept of narrow banking wherein the deposits are kept in Gilts and some other assets which improves liquidity and reduces risk. The basic fact lies that banks cannot be ignored and they will not close down completely. Their role as intermediaries cannot be ignored. It is just that Mutual Funds are going to change the way banks do business in the future. Challenges for Mutual Fund Industry 1) Lack of Financial Education and Awareness: Financial literacy is the one of the most fundamental factor impeding the growth of penetration of any financial product in the smaller cities and towns. Investors need to be made aware of their financial goals and the means to achieve the same SEBI is making efforts for the investor awareness campaign. 2) Limited Distribution Network: The second critical issue for fund houses to distribute their products in smaller cities is the availability of quality distribution infrastructure. Fund houses need infrastructure like branched, adequate number of relationship managers and sales service staff in these locations to be able to increase their sales volume coming from these geographies.
  • 24. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 15 | P a g e 3) Distribution cost: Cost of establishing A Distribution network in B-15 cities is quite high. It is the cost per transaction or the low sales volume that makes the pursuit economically unviable or at least challenging 4) Cultural Bias: Cultural Bias towards physical assets, as of FY13, 46 percent of total individual wealth in India is invested in physical assets. Although, in the past few decades, the investors have increasingly relied on financial assets to invest their savings, the contribution of MFs in the asset portfolio is very low. The Mutual Fund Industry in India: Opportunities and Challenges The Indian mutual fund industry finds itself in an economic landscape which has undergone rapid changes over the past three years. The industry achieved a high water mark when it doubled its AUM from Rs. 3.6 trillion in FY2007 to Rs. 6.13 trillion in FY2010 – clocking an impressive growth rate of 16.2% per year. Since then the Indian economy (coupled with the emerging economies) has faced a slowdown – the most severe of which are happening as this report is being written. From an average GDP growth rate of 8-9% during the 2008-2011 years, the Indian economy is now growing at a lack lustre 4.8% growth rate in Q2 2013. Coupled with a steep decline in the value of the Indian rupee, the mutual fund industry now finds itself in a capricious global economic environment. However, there is strong reason to believe that the Indian mutual fund industry has not yet seen its global peak and if proper measures are taken, the industry could get back on its former growth path. One of the biggest challenges that the mutual fund industry faces is the lack of healthy participation from a large part of the country. To illustrate this lack of participation, we first aggregated the AUMs originating out of each district of India. We then rank ordered all the districts of India in descending order of their domestic product (GDP) and then partitioned this list into ten parts. The top 60 districts formed the first decile followed by the second decile and so on. We then aggregated the AUMs and GDPs for each of these deciles and took the ratio of these two figures. The AUM/GDP ratio is one of the best indicators of how much of the yearly income in a given district is being invested into mutual funds. While the figure of rupees 7.5 trillion of AUM may sound impressive on paper, this figure is marred by a sharp divide in terms of investment in the first decile of districts and the rest of the country. Chart 1 on the next page presents this stark 16 contrast. For the country as a whole, the
  • 25. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 16 | P a g e AUM/GDP stands at approx. 6.99%. When this ratio is calculated for the first decile of districts, the ratio is 29.52% - slightly lower than the world average. However, the rest of India paints a dismal picture with the AUM/GDP ratio standing at 1.82%. This skewed origination of AUM in India is its single biggest challenge and its biggest opportunity at the same time.

  • 31. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 22 | P a g e Literature Review Article 1: - RATING EVALUATION OF SELECT EQUITY FUNDS IN INDIA 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 avenues Article 2:- A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF RETURNS OF MUTUAL FUND SCHEMES RANKED 1 BY CRISIL Mutual fund industry has experienced a drastic growth in the past two decades. Increase in the number of schemes with increased mobilization of funds in the past few years notes the importance of Indian mutual funds industry. To fulfill the expectations of millions of retail investors, the mutual funds are required to function as successful institutional investors. Proper assessment of various fund performance and their comparison with other funds helps retail investors for making investment decisions. The main aim of this paper is to evaluate the performance of mutual fund Schemes ranked 1 by CRISIL and compare these returns with SBI domestic term deposit rates. Considering the interest of retail investors simple statistical techniques like averages and rate of returns are used. The results obtained from the study clearly depicts that, in most of the cases the mutual fund schemes have failed even to provide the return of SBI domestic term deposits.
  • 32. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 23 | P a g e Article 3 Academic research often focuses on fund returns, sometimes adjusted for style and market cap biases. Because fund rating systems play a central role in the asset management industry, we consider another approach in this paper. Using a Markov modelling of these ratings, we illustrate that the persistence of the performance is relatively poor with respect to the time horizon of investors. We show that two facts may explain these results. First, the rating system is not necessarily time-homogeneous. Second, the importance of style is crucial when comparing the ratings of mutual funds. However, we show that it is extremely difficult to characterize quantitatively the style of a mutual fund. We conclude that fund selection is more art than science, and that quantitative analysis must be combined with qualitative insight.

  • 36. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 27 | P a g e Research Methodology Research Objective The primary objective of doing this research is to “Identify the Rating of different Scheme in comparison of Assets of the Fund” Research Design Research Design is the roadmap for carrying out the research activity in the project. In our project of “Study of Selected Mutual fund scheme Rating in Related With AUM” we have carried out the research of which mutual fund is providing higher return by comparing the returns of different mutual funds and we have also compared whether the mutual fund can beat the market return or not. For this research activity  We have selected 10 mutual funds from Indian market. All funds are in equity diversified category.  Data has been collected from Mutual Fund Insight book, value research online, and mutual fund India web sites.  Funds selected are mostly preferable by investors.  Collected Rating and Assets of funds of each July Month for the year 2003 to 2015. Source of Data Here in this research project we have used Secondary source of data. Data Collection Method Here in this research project we have used data which were published in the Value Research Book in this book we collect data of Rating and Assets.
  • 37. OAKBROOK BUSINESS SCHOOL 28 | P a g e Limitations  The biggest limitation of this research is, it is not valid for the scheme of mutual funds. It is valid only for the selected fund on which we have conducted research.  As we have collected Secondary data from the monthly Magazine Mutual Insight, in this there were many data missing due to that we have to opt for the scheme website.  In some of the month there were no appropriate data available due to which we have face problem to come of it.  In our data we have face problem that in some months rating were not giving due to which we cannot get the proper conclusion.  As we have taken 10 scheme so our research valid only for that 10 scheme. No investor can take decision for remaining scheme of mutual funds.
