The project on the Comparison and analysis of various Mutual fund schemes in
India vis a vis Benchmark Index was undertaken as a part of learning process of
a Management Student.
Mutual funds are popular financial intermediaries and and manage disposable
income of the investors so as to bring them benefits of equity investment.
The mutual funds in India has caught the attention of millions of investors with
diverse interests around the basic principles of investment viz., safety, liquidity
and returns
Equity mutual funds predominantly invest in company equities and hence are
risky investments. While choosing to invest in equitymutual funds, the
investors expect not only risk premium but also better return than the market
portfolio. Risk Premium refers to the returns earned by the investor in excess of
risk free return.
The key learning from the project was the knowledge of mutual funds and the
psychology of the investors.
MUTUAL FUND
CONCEPT:
Mutual fund is a mechanism for pooling the resources by issuing units to the
investors and investing funds in securities in accordance with objectives as
disclosed in offer document.
Investments in securities are spread across a wide cross-section of industries
and sectors and thus the risk is reduced. Diversification reduces the risk because
all stocks may not move in the same direction in the same proportion at the
same time.Mutual fund issues units to the investors in accordance with quantum
of money invested by them. Investors of mutual funds are known as unit
holders.
The profits or losses are shared by the investors in proportion to their
investments. The mutual funds normally come out with a number of schemes
with different investment objectives, which are launched from time to time.
A mutual fund is required to be registered with Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI), which regulates securities markets before it can collect funds from
the public.
The flow chart below describes broadly the working of a mutual fund:
Wide variety of Mutual Fund Schemes exists to cater to the needs such as
financial position, risk tolerance and return expectations etc. The table below
gives an overview into the existing types of schemes in the Industry:
• By Structure:
o Open - Ended Schemes
o Close - Ended Schemes
o Interval Schemes
• By Investment Objective:
o Growth Schemes
o Income Schemes
o Balanced Schemes
o Money Market Schemes
• Other Schemes:
o Tax Saving Schemes
o Special Schemes
♣ Index Schemes
♣ Sector Specific Schemes
Schemes according to Maturity Period:
¬ Balanced Fund:
The aim of balanced funds is to provide both growth and regular income as such
schemes invest both in equities and fixed income securities in the proportion
indicated in their offer documents. These are appropriate for investors looking
for moderate growth. They generally invest 40-60% in equity and debt
instruments. These funds are also affected because of fluctuations in share
prices in the stock markets. However, NAVs of such funds are likely to be less
volatile compared to pure equity funds.
¬ Gilt Fund:
These funds invest exclusively in government securities. Government securities
have no default risk. NAVs of these schemes also fluctuate due to change in
interest rates and other economic factors as is the case with income or debt
oriented schemes.
¬ Index Funds:
Index Funds replicate the portfolio of a particular index such as the BSE
Sensitive index, S&P NSE 50 index (Nifty), etc These schemes invest in the
securities in the same weightage comprising of an index. NAVs of such schemes
would rise or fall in accordance with the rise or fall in the index, though not
exactly by the same percentage due to some factors known as "tracking error" in
technical terms. Necessary disclosures in this regard are made in the offer
document of the mutual fund scheme.
There are also exchange traded index funds launched by the mutual funds which
are traded on the stock exchanges.
¬ DIVERSIFICATION:
One rule of investing that both large and small investors should follow is asset
diversification. Used to manage risk, diversification involves the mixing of
investments within a portfolio. For eg., by choosing to buy stocks in retail sector
and offsetting them with stocks in industrial sector, an investor can reduce the
impact of the performance of any one security on his portfolio. To achieve a truly
diversified portfolio, an investor may have to buy stocks with different
capitalizations from different industries and bonds having varying maturities
from different issuers. For the individual investor this can be quite costly. By
purchasing mutual funds, an investor is provided with the immediate benefit of
instant diversification and asset allocation without the large amounts of cash
needed to create individual portfolios. One caveat, however, is that simply
purchasing one mutual fund might not give you adequate diversification- check
to see if the fund is sector specific or industry specific. For eg., investing in an oil
and energy mutual fund might spread your money over fifty companies , but if
energy prices fall, your portfolio will likely suffer.
¬ ECONOMIES OF SCALE:
The easiest way to understand economies of scale is by thinking about volume
discounts: in many stores the more of one product you buy, the cheaper that
product becomes. For eg., when you buy a dozen apples, the price per apple is
cheaper than buying a single one. This occurs also in the purchase and sale of
securities. If an investor buys only one security at a time, the transaction fee will
be relatively large.
Mutual funds are able to take advantage of their buying and selling size and
thereby reduce transaction costs for investors. When an investor buys a mutual
fund, he is able to diversify without the numerous commission charges. Imagine
if you had to buy the 10-20 stocks needed for diversification. The commission
charges alone would eat up a good chunk of your savings.
¬ PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT:
Mutual funds are managed by a team of professionals, which usually includes
one mutual fund manager and several analysts. Presumably, professionals have
more experience, knowledge, and information than the average investor when it
comes to deciding which securities to buy and sell. They also have the ability to
focus on just a single area of expertise.
¬ POTENTIAL RETURN:
Mutual funds have the potential to provide a higher return to an investor than
any other option over a reasonable period of time.
¬ LOWER RISK:
Mutual Funds invest the money in a large number of securities, thereby
spreading the funds invested over a large number of securities and at times
even over different asset classes within the same scheme. Investment in a large
number of securities, and different asset classes reduces the risk to which an
ordinary person investing by himself might be exposed.
¬ NO GUARANTEES:
No investment is risk free. If the entire stock market declines in value, the value
of mutual fund shares will go down as well, no matter how balanced the
portfolio. Investors encounter fewer risks when they invest in mutual funds than
when they buy and sell stocks on their own. However, anyone who invests
through a mutual fund runs the risk of losing money.
¬ TAXES:
During a typical year, most actively managed mutual funds sell anywhere from
20 to 70 percent of the securities in their portfolios. If your fund makes a profit
on its sales, you will pay taxes on the income you receive, even if you reinvest
the money you made.
¬ MANAGEMENT RISK:
When you invest in a mutual fund, you depend on the fund's manager to make
the right decisions regarding the fund's portfolio. If the manager does not
perform as well as you had hoped, you might not make as much money on your
investment as you expected.
TAX BENEFITS
¬ GROWTH PLAN:
Under the growth plan, the investor realizes only the capital appreciation on the
investment (by an increase in NAV) and does not get any income in the form of
dividend.
¬ INCOME PLAN:
Under the income plan, the investor realizes the income in the form of dividend.
However his NAV will fall to the extent of the dividend.

availability of distributable surplus in the Scheme. For details of scheme features
and for scheme specific risk factors, please refer to the Scheme Information
Document. Please read the Statement of Additional Information and Scheme
Information Document carefully before investing.
Equity/Growth Schemes
Equity/growth schemes
The aim of growth funds is to provide capital appreciation over the medium to
long- term. Such schemes normally invest a major part of their corpus in
equities. Such funds have comparatively high risks. These schemes provide
different options to the investors like dividend option, capital appreciation, etc.
and the investors may choose an option depending on their preferences. The
investors must indicate the option in the application form. The mutual funds also
allow the investors to change the options at a later date. Growth schemes are
good for investors having a long-term outlook seeking appreciation over a period
of time.
Debt/Income Schemes
The aim of income funds is to provide regular and steady income to investors.
Such schemes generally invest in fixed income securities such as bonds,
corporate debentures, Government securities and money market instruments.
Such funds are less risky compared to equity schemes. These funds are not
affected because of fluctuations in equity markets. However, opportunities of
capital appreciation are also limited in such funds. The NAVs of such funds are
affected because of change in interest rates in the country. If the interest rates
fall, NAVs of such funds are likely to increase in the short run and vice versa.
However, long term investors may not bother about these fluctuations.
Research in common parlance refers to a search for knowledge. once can also
define research as a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on
a specific topic. Research is an art of scientific investigation.
The advanced learner’s dictionary of current English lays down the meaning of
research as ’’a careful investigation or inquiry specially through search for new
facts in any branch of knowledge.’’
The main aim of research is to find out the truth which is hidden and which has
not been discovered as yet. Though each research study has its own specific
purpose. The role of research in several fields of applied economics, whether
related to business or to the economy as a whole, has greatly increased in
modern times. The increasingly complex nature of business and government has
focused attention on the use of research in solving operational problems.
Research, as an aid to economic policy, has gained added importance, both for
government and business.
OBJECTIVE:
SUB OBJECTIVE :
The objective is to assess the financial performance of equity mutual funds in
terms of quarterly profits for a two year period,2005-2006. Rate of returns is the
commonly accepted measure for aassessing the profitability of equity mutual
funds.
• In India , brokers could get more Net savvy than investors and could help the
investors with the knowledge through get from the Net.
• New investors would prefer online : Mutual funds can target investors who are
young individuals and who are Net savvy, since servicing them would be easier
on the Net.
• India has around 1.6 million net users who are prime target for these funds
and this could just be the beginning. The Internet users are going to increase
dramatically and mutual funds are going to be the best beneficiary. With smaller
administrative costs more funds would be mobilized .A fund manager must be
ready to tackle the volatility and will have to maintain sufficient amount of
investments which are high liquidity and low yielding investments to honor
redemption.
• Net based advertisements: There will be more sites involved in ads and
promotion of mutual funds. In the U.S. sites like AOL offer detailed research and
financial details about the functioning of different funds and their performance
statistics. A is witnessing a genesis in this area.
The S&P CNX 500 is India’s first broad-based benchmark of the Indian capital
market for comparing portfolio returns vis-a-vis market returns. The S&P CNX
500 represents about 96% of total market capitalization and about 93% of the
total turnover on the NSE.
The S&P CNX 500 companies are disaggregated into 72 industry indices viz. S&P
CNX Industry Indices. Industry weightages in the index reflect the industry
weightages in the market. For e.g. if the banking sector has a 5% weightage in
the universe of stocks traded on NSE, banking stocks in the index would also
have an approx. representation of 5% in the index.
Method of Computation:
S&P CNX 500 is computed using market capitalization weighted method, wherein
the level of the index reflects the total market value of all the stocks in the index
relative to a particular base period. The method also takes into account
constituent changes in the index and importantly corporate actions such as stock
splits, rights, etc without affecting the index value.
Market Capitalization
• Industry Representation
• Trading Interest
• Financial Performance
Market Capitalization:
A company’s rank on market capitalisation is an important consideration for its
inclusion in the Index.
Industry Representation:
S&P CNX 500 Equity Index reflects the market as closely as possible. In order to
ensure that this is accomplished, industry weightages in the index mirror the
industry weightages in the universe. Consequently, companies to be included in
the index are selected from the industries which are under represented in the
index.
S&P CNX 500 Equity Index currently contains 72 industries, including one
category of diversified companies and one category of miscellaneous. The
number of industries in the Index and the number of companies within each
industry have been kept flexible, in order to ensure that the Index retains its
objective of being an dynamic market indicator.
Trading Interest:
S&P CNX 500 Equity Index includes those companies which have a minimum
listing record of 6 months on the Exchange. In addition these companies must
have demonstrated high turnover and trading frequency.
Financial Performance:
S&P CNX 500 Equity Index includes companies that have minimum record of
three years with a positive net worth.
Others:
A company which comes out with a IPO will be eligible for inclusion in the index,
if it fulfills the normal eligibility criteria for the index for a 3 month period instead
of a 6 month period.
Index Maintenance:
Index Maintenance plays a crucial role in ensuring stability of the Index as well
as in meeting its objective of being a consistent benchmark of the equity
markets.
IISL has constituted an Index Policy Committee, which is involved in policy and
guidelines for managing the CNX Indices. The Index Maintenance Sub-committee
takes all decisions on addition/ deletion of companies in any Index.
The index is reviewed every quarter and a four weeks notice is given to the
market before making changes to the index set.
When a stock goes out and a new stock comes in, doesn't that make index levels
non-comparable?
There are mathematical formulas which ensure that yesterday's value and
today's are comparable, even if a change in composition takes place in-between.
Think of an index as a portfolio. The composition of the portfolio changes, but it
is still meaningful to keep measuring the overnight returns on the portfolio from
day to day. These returns, cumulated up, are the index level.
Review Of Literature
This article examines the rates of returns generated by equity mutual funds,vis-
à-vis,364 days T-bills and the Bombay Stock Exchange-100(BSE-100) National
Index during the period 1993-2002.Rate of return on 364 days T-bill is the
surrogate measure for risk free return and the BSE-100 National index has been
chosen as proxy for market portfolio in our analysis. Equity mutual funds
predominantly invest in company equities and hence are risky investments while
choosing to invest in equity mutual funds, the investors expect not only risk
premium but also better returns than the market portfolio.
The paper has been divided in to four sections.Section1 outlines the scope and
methodology of the study that includes, inter alia, the basis of computation of
rate of return earned by the equity mutual funds,364 days T-bills and BSE-100
National Index,Section2 computes and analyzes rates of return.Section3 is
concerned with comparision od rates of return of private sector company
sponsored equity mutual funds and PSU sponsored equity mutual funds
Concluding observations have been recapitulated in Section 4.
Use the Proprietary Bubble Analysis of the Relative Risk and Return Analysis of
Mutual Funds deve by the ICICI Bank Private Bank Advisory Group.
This article deals with the risk of Mutual Fund Investments, Types of risks, and
the common mistakes done by investor while choosing the funds for the purpose
of investing, Investors responsibility in Investing. To identify suitable fund can
be done in two step manner as follows:
• Selecting a fund with investment objectives and preferences, return objectives,
time horizon and risk tolerances that meet the requirements of investor.
• Selecting a fund that has a detailed asset allocation strategy by fund type
category to reflect the investment objectives of the fund.
The study examined the stock selection abilities of investment managers in India
across the fund characteristics as well as the persistence of such performance. It
also investigated performance variability for a sample of 80 investment schemes
for the period starting from January 1998-December 2002.On the whole, the
results reported documents significant statistical evidences for passive stock
selection abilities of Indian investment managers. It points to the consistency of
performance across the measurement criteria. Investment Performance depends
on the stock selection and pertains to the successful micro forecasting for
company specific events. It refers to the manager’s ability to identify under or
overvalued securities.
The mutual fund industry in India has been on a roll as the assets under
management continue to see strong spurt in growth. The assets under
management swelled to Rs. 1, 67,978 cr. By May 31, 2005 from Rs.1, 01,565 cr.
In January 2000.This apart, the industry has also seen a spurt in the number of
schemes on offer which amount to 460 at present, catering to varied needs of
investors. A booming economy, soaring stock market and a conducive regulatory
environment, amongst a slew of other factors have added to the growth of the
industry. Given the huge opportunity in sub-urban and rural markets, which lie
hitherto untapped and growing income levels in the country, the industry’s
future look bright.
The study is confined to evaluate the performance of mutual funds on the basis
of weekly returns compared with risk free security returns and BSE Index. The
present study includes the five different sector specific schemes. Among these
25 schemes, only sector specific schemes floated by different institutions have
been studied .To evaluate the performance of funds only three performance
measures have been applied i.e. Sharpe Index,Treynor Index and Jensen’s
measure. It is observed that the performance of sample schemes during the
study period is best.However; there are some instances where poor performance
has been reflected. It may lead to regain investor’s confidence
PARAMETERS OF COMPARISON
¬ SHARPE RATIO
This measure uses standard deviation as a measure to evaluate a fund's risk-
adjusted returns. The higher a fund's Sharpe ratio, the better it is i.e. a fund's
returns would be regarded good if the fund returns a high level of Sharpe ratio.
Mathematically, it is arrived at by deducting the risk free returns from the
returns generated by the fund and dividing the residual figure by the standard
deviation of the fund's returns. One thing that has to be kept in mind while using
this measure is that the ratio is not an absolute figure. Its real utility lies in inter
scheme comparison.
¬ TREYNOR'S RATIO
The other measure Treynor's ratio also has the same attributes with the
difference that the residual figure in this case is divided by beta rather than the
standard deviation, thus reflecting only the systematic risk. Beta of the fund is a
volatility measure that quantifies sensitivity of the fund's return to the
benchmark index's returns i.e. given the movements of the benchmark how
much the fund will move. It does not give representation to unsystematic risk
under the assumption that the fund manager can easily wipe out the
unsystematic risk by diversifying across a large number of stocks.
PORTFOLIO SUMMARY
Portfolio Summary
¬ The fund is also unique in the diversity of the stocks it holds, be it large, mid-
or small-cap and growth or value stocks—you will find everything in its portfolio.
¬ It is also more partial to small-caps than other diversified equity funds. And, in
fact, this bias towards small-caps since July 2004 till date has been the biggest
contributing factor for the fund's excellent performance. The fund's small-cap
holdings like Uniphos Enterprises, Swaraj Mazda, Sintex Industries and EID
Parry have seen their prices surge manifold since then.
¬ Following the rally in bank and auto stocks in 2003, Reliance Growth increased
exposure in both sectors. And recently, the fund's higher allocation to technology
and engineering stocks added to its superlative performance.
Portfolio Summary
ANALYSIS
HDFC Equity Fund is an aggressive diversified fund .The fund manager is bullish
on the long-term and expects returns in line with earnings growth. IN the
beginning of the year both index and fund have given negative return. In 3rd
qtr. Investors start getting returns over and above the risk free return but the
fund has outperformed the index by quite a margin, primarily because of fund
manager’s aggressive portfolio churning. Where as in the last qtr. The fund has
underperformed.
ANALYSIS
Year 2005 was very volatile, in the b egining of the year both the index and the
fund has not given any return. But the bull run starts from Qtr.2 Which was
remain there till the end.
ANALYSIS
From the above we can draw the fund has outperformed index but not as much
as the other funds in the same category, primarily because of the fund
manager’s conservative approach.
ANALYSIS
ICICI Pru Dynamic fund was giving same return as of index which was remain
throughout the year.
ANALYSIS
Initially the fund has underperformed than that of index but in the later part of
the year it has outperformed the index.
ANALYSIS
Franklin prima fund is one of the largest gainer in the 2005 in its category, which
can clearly be interpreted from above.
ANALYSIS
Even when the index has given negative returns in the beginning of the year
than that of risk free return, The fund has given the positive returns .The fund
has given steady return to the investors throughout the year.
ANALYSIS
Reliance Growth Fund has been outperformed the index,we can inter prêt that
because of its less variability in the returns over various qtr. It has high sharpe’s
ratio than that of index
Findings
Based on the above ratios,we can see that four of these five funds-Franklin
Prima,SBI Equity,HDFC Equity, Reliance Growth outperformed the S&P 500
Index on an excess return-risk basis during the year 2004.Since this is an
ordinal(relative) measure of portfolio performance, different portfolios can easily
be ranked on this variable. Using only the Sharpe’s measure of the portfolio
performance, we would judge the portfolio with the highest Sharpe’s Ratio (risk
to variability ratio) best in terms of exp post performance. Thus Reliance Growth
is the best performer and Pru Dynamic is the worst performer vis a vis S&P 500.
SHARPE’S RATIOS
2005
CNX 4.84103
ICICI 6.685766
PRIMA 8.808584
GROWTH 10.32903
SBI 5.513816
HDFC 9.136044
FINDINGS
As we can see that all the funds Sharpe’s Ratio exceed the Sharpe’s ratio of the
S&P CNX 500 for the year 2005.The average return for all the fund Franklin
Prima,SBI Equity,HDFC Equity, Reliance Growth,ICICI Pru Dynamic are quite
close but because of their difference in S.D,The Sharpe’s ratios differed. Reliance
Growth was the best performer and SBI Equity was the least. This indicates that
Reliance growth has superior risk-adjusted performance than the other funds.
TREYNOR RATIOS
2004
ICICI 0.098742
PRIMA 0.428187
GROWTH 0.393264
SBI 0.141552
HDFC 0.230929
FINDINGS
TREYNOR RATIOS
2005
ICICI 0.473527
PRIMA 0.69876
GROWTH 0.855697
SBI 0.352228
HDFC 0.57131
FINDINGS
CONCLUSION
Comparing the Sharpe and Treynor Measures:
Given their similarity, when should Sharpe and Treynor be used, and why?
Actually, given the assumptions underlying each measure, both can be said to
be correct. Therefore, it is usually desirable to calculate both measures for the
set of portfolios being evaluated.
The choice of which to use could depend on definition on risk. If an investor
thinks it correct to use systematic risk,.Treynor is appropriate.
This analysis leads to an important observation about the Sharpe and Treynor
measures. Investors who have all of their assets in a potrtfolio iof securities
should rely more on Sharpe measure,because it asseses the portfolio’s total
return in relation to total risk,which includes any unsystematic risk assumed by
the investor.
