Companies raise funds to finance their projects through various methods. The
promoters can bring their own money or barrow from the financial institutions or
mobilizes capital by issuing securities. The funds may be raised through issue of fresh
share at per or premium. Preference shares debenture or global depository receipts. These
are mainly two markets which any company can raise their funds; those are primary
market and secondary market .the companies raise funds for the following purposes:

• To promote a new company.


• To expand an existing company.

Mutual funds:
A mutual fund is a form of collective investment that pools money from many
investors and invests their money in stocks, bonds, short-term money market instruments,
other securities etc. In a mutual fund, the fund manager trades the fund's underlying
securities, realizing capital gains or losses, and collects the the dividend or interest
income. The investment proceeds are then passed along to the individual investors.
A mutual fund is created when investor put their money together. It is therefore a
pool of the investor’s funds.

The term mutual means that investors contribute to the pool and also benefit
from the pool. There are no other claimants to funds. The pool of funds help mutually by
investors is the mutual fund.

A mutual fund business is to invest the funds thus collected according to the
wishes of the investors who created the pool the invested appoints professional
investment mangers, to mange their funds.

IMPORTANT CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MUTUAL FUND

1. A mutual fund actually belongs to the investors who have pooled their funds.
The ownership of the mutual fund is in the hand of the investor

2. A mutual fund is managed by investment professional and other service


providers who earn a fee for their services from the fund

3. The pool of funds is invested in a portfolio of marketable investments. The


value of the portfolio is updated every day.

4. The investor’s share in the fund is denominated by “UNIT”. The value of the
unit changes with changes in the portfolio value every day the value of the
unit of investment is called as the Net Assets Value or NAV.

5. The investment portfolio of the fund is created according to the stated


investment objectives of the fund.
About Mutual Fund Industry

Mutual Funds are financial intermediaries which pool the savings of numerous
individuals and invest the money, thus related in a diversified portfolio of securities,
including equity, bonds debentures and other money market instruments, thus spreading
and reducing risk. The objective of mutual fund is to maximize the return to the investor
who participates in equity indirectly through mutual funds.

Even though the mutual fund industry grown in asset value from Rs.7000
Crores to 2,00,000/- Crores today, this is just the tip of the iceberg. According to most
Fund Managers, the real boom is yet to come.

The sum of Rs. 2,00,000/- Crores represents just 3% - 4%


of the total market capitalization of 25,00,000 Crore. This compares poorly with the US,
where the mutual funds have nearly $ 6.8 billion of market capitalization of roughly
Rs.70000 Crore, barely 3% - 4% of total market capitalization.

This is not expected, because mutual fund history in India, which dates back to
1964, when the first open-ended mutual fund scheme Unit-64 was launched by Unit Trust
of India, is still dominated by it. The focus initially was income earning securities, with
only 20 % of the Corpus going into equity. The early 80’s saw other schemes like the
growing income, fixed income, and monthly income being introduced by the UTI. But it
was only in 1986 that the first pure Growth equity scheme Master share was launched.
The 1989-90 was another landmark year in the history of mutual funds. For the
fist time, the monopoly of UTI over the industry was broken. The government allowed
public sector banks and insurance companies to enter this sector to bring in some
competition. But it was only in 1993, when the private sector was given the green signal
to float mutual funds, that excitement and competition came. Not only did the
Government allowed Indian companies to float mutual funds, it even allowed foreign
funds to set in shop in India and float funds. Thus, in one stroke, this sector was truly
privatized.

Today there are about 12-14 private players in the market including foreign
funds such as Morgan Stanley, besides the nine public sector players and UTI. Together,
these funds have mobilized around Rs.6500 Crore from the market. The collections could
have been better, had not the public sector funds been busy complying with the SEBI
guidelines pertaining to the formation of asset management companies etc.

But the best is yet to come. A number of companies have plans to float mutual
funds at various stages of implementation. Some of the major names which are likely to
come to the market are Tata Sons in collaboration with Kleinwort Benson, ITC Classic
with Thread needle UR, Oppenheimer of US, plus a host of others. And according to
conservative guesstimates, mutual funds are set to collect over Rs.10000 Crore from the
market this year.

The reason for such confidence is that with SEBI firm about the small investor
taking the mutual fund route to investments in the stock market, and the regulatory
changes making it much more difficult to get allotments in primary markets, small
investors will not be left with many opportunities.
Regulatory Structure of Mutual Fund in India

The structure of mutual fund in India is governed by SEBI (MUTUAL FUND)


regulations 1996. These regulations make it mandatory for mutual funds to have a three-
tier structure of SPONSOR-TRUSTEE-ASSET MANAGEMENT COMPANY (AMC).

Concept and role of Mutual Fund


A Mutual Fund is common pool of money into which Investor place their
contributions that are to be invested in accordance with a stated objective. The ownership
of the Fund is thus joint or “mutual”; the fund belongings to all investors.
A single investor’s ownership of the fund is in the same proportion as the
amount of the contribution made by him or her bears to the total amount of the fund.

A Mutual fund uses the money collected from investors to buy those assets,
which are specifically permitted by its stated investment objective. Thus, an Equity Fund
would buy mainly Equity assets-ordinary shares, preference shares, warrants etc. A bond
fund would mainly buy debt instruments such as debentures, bonds or government
securities. It is these assets, which are owned by the investors in the same proportions as
there contribution bears to the total contribution of all investors put together.
When an investor subscribes to a mutual fund, he or she buys a part of these
assets or the pool of funds that are outstanding at that time. It’s no different from buying
“shares” of a joint stock company, in which case the purchase makes the investor a part
owner of the company and its assets. In fact, in the USA, a Mutual fund is constituted as
an investment company and an investor “buys into the fund”, meaning he buys the shares
of the fund. In India, a mutual fund is constituted as a Trust and the investor subscribes to
the “units “ issued by the fund, which is where the term unit Trust comes from.

Types of Mutual Funds Schemes

Schemes floated by the various mutual funds are essentially of two types,
namely open-ended and close-ended. The basic characteristics of these two types of
mutual fund schemes are given below:
OPEN ENDED SCHEMES:

Open-ended schemes are available for subscription all the year round
excluding the period of book-closing. They may or may not have a specified redemption
period. The sale and repurchase prices are fixed by the mutual fund concerned from time
to time. Repurchases are generally allowed al specified rated.

Each open-ended scheme must have a minimum corpus of Rs.50 crore. In case
the fund manager is not able to raise this amount at the time of issue, or 60 % of the
targeted amount whichever is higher, the entire subscription must be returned to the
investor.

CLOSE-ENDED SCHEMES
These are open for subscription only during a specified period. Generally the
redemption dates are also specified when the investor can redeem their units. The
duration of this scheme varies: normally it is 5-7 years. Repurchase during the
intervening period may or may not be allowed. Some of the schemes though have a
repurchase facility after a certain period. Many of these schemes are listed in stock
exchanges, except for some of the close-ended income schemes .

Equity Oriented Schemes:

These schemes, also commonly called Growth Schemes, seek to invest a


majority of their funds in equities and a small portion in money market instruments. Such
schemes have the potential to deliver superior returns over the long term. However,
because they invest in equities, these schemes are exposed to fluctuations in value
especially in the short term.
Equity schemes are hence not suitable for investors seeking regular income
or needing to use their investments in the short-term. They are ideal for investors who
have a long-term investment horizon. The NAV prices of equity fund fluctuates with
market value of the underlying stock which are influenced by external factors such as
social, political as well as economic. HDFC Growth Fund, HDFC Tax saver and HDFC
Index Fund are examples of equity schemes.

Debt Based Schemes:

These schemes, also commonly called Income Schemes, invest in debt


securities such as corporate bonds, debentures and government securities. The prices of
these schemes tend to be more stable compared with equity schemes and most of the
returns to the investors are generated through dividends or steady capital appreciation.
These schemes are ideal for conservative investors or those not in a position to take
higher equity risks, such as retired individuals. However, as compared to the money
market schemes they do have a higher price fluctuation risk and compared to a Gilt fund
they have a higher credit risk.
 INCOME SCHEMES : These schemes provide returns in the form of
dividends. The returns may be cumulative or non-cumulative on a monthly,
quarterly, or yearly basis. Mutual Funds carry market risks and are prohibited
by SEBI from declaring any guaranteed rate of returns. The money under such
schemes are predominantly invested in fixed income securities like
debentures, bonds, Government securities etc.

 Liquid Income Schemes: Similar to the Income scheme but with a shorter
maturity than Income schemes. An example of this scheme is the HDFC
Liquid Fund.

 Money Market Schemes: These schemes invest in short term instruments


such as commercial paper (“CP”), certificates of deposit (“CD”), treasury bills
(“T-Bill”) and overnight money (“Call”). The schemes are the least volatile of
all the types of schemes because of their investments in money market
instrument with short-term maturities. These schemes have become popular
with institutional investors and high net worth individuals having short-term
surplus funds.

Gilt Funds:
This scheme primarily invests in Government Debt. Hence the investor usually
does not have to worry about credit risk since Government Debt is generally credit risk
free. HDFC Gilt Fund is an example of such a scheme.

HYBRID SCHEMES :
These schemes are commonly known as balanced schemes. These schemes
invest in both equities 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. HDFC Balanced Fund and
HDFC Children’s Gift Fund are examples of hybrid schemes.

Interval Schemes:
These schemes combine the features of open-ended and closed-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.

From the investments point of view the existing schemes can be further divided into 4
major categories :

1. GROWTH SCHEMES : These are usually close-ended schemes. The aim of


such schemes is to provide capital appreciation to their investors and accordingly
a substantial part of the Corpus is invested in equities an convertible debentures.
Such schemes are usually listed in the major stock exchanges and the capital
appreciation is reflected in their market value i.e. NAV. They may or may not
declare dividends even though the declaration of annual dividends represents the
health of a scheme.

2. EQUITY-LINKED SCHEMES (ELSS) : These are popularly known as tax-


planning schemes . They are essentially close-ended growth schemes in nature.
They are floated by almost all the public sector mutual funds in the last quarter of
each financial year, some of the essential characteristics are :
a. Investment up to a ceiling of Rs.1,00,000/ come under Section 80C of the
Income Tax Act.
b. Repurchase is allowed after a specified period- usually 3 years.
c. During the lock-in period of 3 years their units cannot be traded, pledged
or transferred.
3. VALUE-ADDED SCHEMES : they are in addition to the growth/income
schemes. Some of the mutual funds schemes have provision for ‘value addition’.
This is usually in the nature of personal insurance cover for accidents, etc. GIC
Mutual Fund was the first to introduce this concept.

• Contacting an Investment advisor in a bank or a brokerage house or an
Independent Financial Advisor is the first step to gathering information.

provide the product and there are dealers who sell them.

2) Evaluation: “Evaluation: choosing the right mutual fund for you


As an investor one may
• for the short term or long term want to invest
• want regular income or growth
• want to target lower risk or higher returns

regularly. Also used to reduce risk when investing in schemes targeting aggressive
growth.

investment regularly. Used when you want to withdraw your investment for a
specific regular payment, like insurance premium payments of monthly/quarterly
frequency.
• Automatic debit: Saves the hassle of writing a cheque when making an
investment. Your account is debited automatically for the amount invested.
• Dividend Plan :
 Dividend Payout: Under this plan investor can redeem his/her dividend at
specific times.
 Dividend Reinvestment: Under this plan investor’s dividend is reinvested
back to it’s principal amount which therefore increase the number of units
investor is holding.
 Growth: Under this plan income generated from investment will put back
to it’s invested amount which therefore increases the value of each unit
customer is holding.

4) Post Purchase Monitoring:

before you receive an account statement on the address mentioned by you in your
application form.
• The Account Statement :Your account statement indicates your current holding
in the scheme that you have invested.

considerations in deciding their exit.

Redemption: In case of open ended funds investor can redeem his/her invested amount.
Most funds take 1-3 days to credit your account with your redemption proceeds.

BETA Beta > 1 = high risky
Beta is a fairly commonly used measure of risk. It Beta = 1 = Avg
basically indicates the level of volatility associated Beta <1 = Low Risky

POINTS:

 Portfolio Diversification – Mutual Funds normally invest in a well-diversified


portfolio or securities where the investor can hold a diversified investment
portfolio even with a small amount of investment.

 Professional Management – The investors does not have the skills and the
resources of their own to succeed in today’s fast moving, global and sophisticated
markets. Thereby they benefits from the professional management skills brought
in by the fund in the management of investor’s portfolio.

 Diversification of Risk- Since the investor acquires a diversified portfolio, it


reduces a risk of loss as compared to investing directly in one or two shares or
debentures or other instruments. While investing in a pool of funds with other
investors any loss, on one or two securities is also shared with other investors.
This risk reduction is one of the most important benefits of a collective investment
vehicle like the mutual fund.
 Reduction of Transaction Costs –When going through a fund the investor has
the benefit of economies of scale, funds pay lesser cost because of larger volumes,
and this benefit is passed onto its investors.

 Liquidity- Investment in a mutual fund is more liquid as an investor can liquidate


the investment, by selling the unit to the fund if open-end, or selling them in a
market if the fund is close-end and collect funds at the end of the period specified
by the mutual fund or the stock market.

 Convenience and Flexibility – Mutual Fund management companies offer many


investor services where in the investor can easily transfer their holdings from one
scheme to the other, get updated market information, and so on.

DISADVANTAGES OF MUTUAL FUNDS:

 No Control over cost – An investor in Mutual Funds has no control over the
overall cost investing as he pays investment management fees as long as he
remains with the fund. He also pays fund distribution costs, which he would not
incur in direct investing.

 No Tailor-made Portfolios –Investors who invest on their own can build their
own portfolios whereas investing through funds involves delegating this decision
to the fund managers.

 Managing portfolio of fund- Availability of the large number of funds can


actually mean too much choice for the investor wherein he needs an advice on
selecting a fund to achieve his objectives, to suit the situation when he selects
individual shares or bonds to invest in.

RISK FACTORS

• Mutual Funds and Securities investment are subject to market risks and there can
be assurance or guarantee that the scheme objectives will be achieved.

• As with any investment in securities, the Net Asset Value of Unit issued under the
Scheme may go up or down depending on the various factors and farces affecting
the capital markets.
• Past performance of the Sponsors and their affiliates / AMC / Mutual Fund and its
scheme do not indicate the future performance of the schemes of the Mutual Fund.

• The Sponsors are not responsible or liable for any loss or shortfall resulting from
the operations of the scheme beyond the contribution of Rs 1 lakh each made by
them towards the corpus of the Mutual Fund.

As per SEBI circular ref. SEBI/IMD/CIR No. 10/22701/03 dated December 12, 2003
read with circular ref SEBI/IMD/CIR NO. 1/42529/05 dared June 14, 2005, it is specified
inter alias that each portfolio under a scheme should have a minimum of 20 investors and
no single investor should account for more than 25% of the corpus of such portfolio.

Summary and Findings

6.1 Findings
PART VI
6.2 Suggestions

6.3 Limitation and scope for further research


6.1 Findings
After having met more than 100 individuals the views expressed by these respondents
have been vary significant. Some of views express by them about the Mutual Funds.

 From the respondents, 34% of the respondents lies in the income level of Rs.
150000 to Rs. 300000 and the majority of the respondents saving Rs. 1000 to
Rs.3000 regularly.
 Majority of the respondents of the sample are invested their money in Bank
Deposits and Insurance.

 From the respondents surveyed, 69% of the respondents are aware about the
concept of Mutual Fund and remaining are not aware of this. Friends and Print
Media create large part of this awareness of concept of Mutual Fund.

 Among the 69 aware respondents 53% are invested their money in Mutual Funds
Schemes and the remaining respondents are not invested because of risk factor
involved in it and lack of information about the various scheme of Mutual Funds.

While investing in Mutual Funds people look in for some attributes they are:

 Reputation of the Company: In this project I have found that the name of
Mutual Fund Company matters lot. If the company’s name is good then the people
will think that their money will be more secured in the reputed company.

 Service: I found that wanted good services from the AMC i.e. information of
Mutual Funds Schemes, details of NAV should be available on phone calls.

 Past performance of Funds: while investing in Mutual Fund majority of the


people will look for the past performance of the funds. If it is good people will
think that their money is safer and they can get good returns.

 Portfolio of the Scheme: it is the very important parameter that the clients
consider because the returns of the schemes depended upon the portfolio.

 Sector Portfolio: These portfolios consist of the company only one sector like
Auto sector, IT sector etc and they will invest in that sector funds, which is in
boom period.
 Flexibility: the clients wanted an exit option whenever they required. They also
wanted option of shifting from one scheme to another.

 The respondents those who are already invested in Mutual Funds gives mixed
opinion about investing there increased savings in Mutual Funds.

Those who are given positive opinion towards this are wanted some extra feature
like sufficient information about the various schemes and wanted agent’s service and
those who are not given the positive opinion are wanted to invest their money in bank
deposits and in Insurance (ULIP) because of the safety and the fluctuations in the stock
markets. And very few of investors are invested in the S.I.P (systematic investment
plans).

 In this project I found that respondents preferred debt fund to equity fund because
of regular returns, less risk, and high fluctuation in the stock markets. And they
are having vague information about the Mutual Funds

Suggestions:

 Client awareness program has to be conducted by IL&FS for Stock


Brokering Services and mutual fund, because most of the people in
Belgaum are unaware about it.

 Since the intent and web based communication is getting popular IL&FS
should update web site frequently and provide information up to date
 IL&FS can rethink on its Brokerage rate. Because the charges are
comparatively little higher than the service charged by its competitors and
also customers are expressing dissatisfaction towards its brokerage rate.

 As investors’ investment decision is based on the study of different


sources, IL&FS should start giving advertisement in business newspaper
and in business magazine.

 IL&FS should expand its business by setting up of new branches in


various places where they have lot of client for example Bijapure.

LIMITATIONS

While completing this study, there were some constraints. They were:
• Time: To undertake a project of this magnitude, eight weeks is a short time. To
collect more data from a much larger, varied sample would take additional
time.
• Sample size: Due to constraints on time, the sample size had to be limited at
155. This, by and large, may not represent the entire community of the Indian
investor.
• The study is restricted to Belgaum only.

Learning Outcomes

7.1 Data Interpretation of Investors


PART VII
Data Interpretation of Investors:

 From the given analysis we see that 75% of the investors do not deal in Mutual
funds but they still believe in the traditional mode of investment, which means
there still exists a high degree of Mutual Fund un-awareness among the people.
Therefore focus should be on Investors education.

 There is a great diversity in the pattern of investment, majority of people who are
mostly the business class people invest for long term as they look for the high
returns and long term capital appreciation. These people have great capacity to
take risk they are called as Risk Takers , while rest invest for short term which
mostly comprise of service class people who go for regular/Monthly income
plans i.e. short term benefits.

 Customers who are aware of the market situations perfectly find it futile to invest
through bank and generally had brokers who refund part of the commission to
them.
