LIMITATIONS:

Not single work is an exception to the limitations every work has got its

limitations. The data collection here in this project is strictly confined to the

secondary sources. No primary data was associated with the project. Collecting

historical NAV is very difficult. Selection of the schemes for the study is also a very

difficult task because of the wide variety of schemes. The results of the study are

subjected to inconsistencies arising out of the assumptions made to make the

portfolios comparable viz., sample selection procedure, portfolio proportion

assumption etc.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:

Data source:

Secondary data - Reports from UTI securities and other reports

from related websites.

Introduction

An investment means employment of funds on assets (i.e. securities or mutual


funds or any of the investment avenues) with the aim of earning income as well as
capital appreciation. There are mainly two attributes while investing to any of the
funds i.e. time and risk. There are mainly four objectives, which the investments
activities will carry on. Those are:

 Return from the investment


 Risk involved
 Liquidity
 Hedge against inflation
 Safety
 Convenience

There are many alternatives investment avenues which are open to the
investors to suit their needs and nature .The selection of investment alternatives
depends up on the required level of return and the risk tolerance level. These
alternatives range from financial securities to traditional non-securities investment.

Following are the various investment alternatives.

Negotiable and fixed income securities

LITERATURE REVIEW

Introduction to Mutual Funds

What is a Mutual Fund?

Like most developed and developing countries the mutual fund cult has been

catching on in India. There are various reasons for this. Mutual funds make it easy

and less costly for investors to satisfy their need for capital growth, income and/or

income preservation.

And in addition to this a mutual fund brings the benefits of diversification and

money management to the individual investor, providing an opportunity for financial

success that was once available only to a select few.

Understanding Mutual funds is easy as it's such a simple concept: a mutual

fund is a company that pools the money of many investors -- its shareholders -- to

invest in a variety of different securities. Investments may be in stocks, bonds, money

market securities or some combination of these. Those securities are professionally

managed on behalf of the shareholders, and each investor holds a pro rata share of the

portfolio -- entitled to any profits when the securities are sold, but subject to any

losses in value as well.

For the individual investor, mutual funds provide the benefit of having someone else

manage your investments and diversify your money over many different securities

that may not be available or affordable to you otherwise. Today, minimum investment

requirements on many funds are low enough that even the smallest investor can get

started in mutual funds.

A mutual fund, by its very nature, is diversified that is, its assets are invested in many

different securities. Beyond that, there are many different types of mutual funds with

different objectives and levels of growth potential, furthering your chances to

diversify.

Evolution:

In most of the countries, mutual funds have emerged as strong rivals to


banking industry in mobilizing savings funds. The reason that may attributed to
same is that in the banking sector there are many restrictions for investment in
the capital market, there as the mutual funds have been a free access to these
markets which in other words have given then an upper hand in the matter of
operations. Consequently, the returns from mutual funds investment are higher
compared to the returns out of savings in banks in an ideal market condition.
Thus, he mutual funds i8ndusty has witnessed a tremendous growth in countries
like Mexico and South Africa.

Mutual Funds can be broadly classified under 3 heads namely

BABASAB PATIL

Reference to risk and return”

a) Investment Trust

b) Holding companies

c) Finance Companies

Out of the above the investment trust got a boost because of good public
response and today we have in India Unit Trust of India that was constituted on
similar lines with the unit trust in the U.S.A.

The unit trusts are open-ended schemes where the investor can buy and sell
‘Unit’ at his only will and wish. The other advantage of unit Trust is that even a
small investor can hold shares of many companies and enjoy the returns arising
lot of the investment.

The unit trust of India was constituted under the unit Trust of India act,
1963 and became operational in the year 1964 with the basic objectives of
mobilizing savings through the sale of units and investing them in corporate
securities with the idea of maximizing yield from them and capital appreciation
with inbuilt liquidity. The unit trust of India still commands a good position
among mutual fund in India and approximately 90% of the investments in
mutual fund are in the schemes floated by unit trust of India.

The unit trust of India has many highlights in its performance so far. The
monopoly of unit trust of India was brought to an end with the entry of public
sector mutual funds in the year 1987. Canara bank, State Bank of India, Punjab
National Bank and Indian bank floated the premier mutual funds that came into
being during 1987.

DEFINITIONS:

BABASAB PATIL

A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

The reason for increased response towards mutual funds world over is on
account of investment analyst, who takes investment decisions based on research.
The concept of the lower risk carried on by the investor as the funds are diverted
with professional body of investment analyst, who take investment decisions based
on research. The concept of mutual fund has been defined in various ways.

According to SEBI (Mutual Fund) regulatins1993, “Mutual fund means


a fund established in the form of trust by sponsor to raise moneys by the trustees
through the sale of units to the public under one or more schemes for investing
in securities in accordance with these regulations”.

However in the Indian context it is safe to define “Mutual Fund as trusts


accepting savings from the investors and invest the same as per the objectives
incorporated in the trust deed to manage diversified portfolio which in turn
assure reasonable returns to the investors.”

Why invest in Mutual Funds.


Investing in mutual has various benefits which makes it an ideal investment
avenue. Following are some of the primary benefits.

Professional investment management


One of the primary benefits of mutual funds is that an investor has access to
professional management. A good investment manager is certainly worth the fees you
will pay. Good mutual fund managers with an excellent research team can do a better
job of monitoring the companies they have chosen to invest in than you can, unless
you have time to spend on researching the companies you select for your portfolio.
That is because Mutual funds hire full-time, high-level investment professionals.
Funds can afford to do so as they manage large pools of money. The managers have
real-time access to crucial market information and are able to execute trades on the
largest and most cost-effective scale. When you buy a mutual fund, the primary asset
you are buying is the manager, who will be controlling which assets are chosen to
meet the funds' stated investment objectives.

Diversification

BABASAB PATIL

A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

A crucial element in investing is asset allocation. It plays a very big part in the
success of any portfolio. However, small investors do not have enough money to
properly allocate their assets. By pooling your funds with others, you can quickly
benefit from greater diversification. Mutual funds invest in a broad range of securities.
This limits investment risk by reducing the effect of a possible decline in the value of
any one security. Mutual fund unit-holders can benefit from diversification techniques
usually available only to investors wealthy enough to buy significant positions in a
wide variety of securities.

Low Cost
A mutual fund let's you participate in a diversified portfolio for as little as
Rs.5,000, and sometimes less. And with a no-load fund, you pay little or no sales
charges to own them.

Convenience and Flexibility


Investing in mutual funds has it’s own convenience. While you own just one
security rather than many, you still enjoy the benefits of a diversified portfolio and a
wide range of services. Fund managers decide what securities to trade, collect the
interest payments and see that your dividends on portfolio securities are received and
your rights exercised. It also uses the services of a high quality custodian and
registrar. Another big advantage is that you can move your funds easily from one fund
to another within a mutual fund family. This allows you to easily rebalance your
portfolio to respond to significant fund management or economic changes.

Liquidity
In open-ended schemes, you can get your money back promptly at net asset
value related prices from the mutual fund itself.

Transparency
Regulations for mutual funds have made the industry very transparent. You
can track the investments that have been made on you behalf and the specific
investments made by the mutual fund scheme to see where your money is going. In
addition to this, you get regular information on the value of your investment.

Variety
There is no shortage of variety when investing in mutual funds. You can find a
mutual fund that matches just about any investing strategy you select. There are funds
that focus on blue-chip stocks, technology stocks, bonds or a mix of stocks and bonds.
The greatest challenge can be sorting through the variety and picking the best for you.

Mutual fund route offers several important advantages.

 The popular saying, “don’t keep all the egg in one basket” is quite
appropriate in the case of instruments, if an investor wishes to maximize
his returns, he should invest in a variety of securities available across the
market. However, a small investor with his limited savings can not
acquire a number of securities of different companies and industries.
Thus, the investor gets a proportion of the average market. This specific
character of mutual fund investment avenues further, the modern portfolio
they states that, diversification reduces the risk and improves the scope
for higher returns.
 Professionals who have knowledge and experience in security analysis
and portfolio management manage the corpus amount mobilized by the
mutual funds under various schemes. Research is continuous process in
mutual funds, where they identify the under valued and high yielding
securities and make will-timed purchases and sales. An investor of a
mutual fund schemes may gain out its professional management. The

BABASAB PATIL
-11-

Reference to risk and return”

investor can save his cost and time in identifying the securities; he can
share the benefits of reach and management costs of the funds with other
investor.
 Mutual funds are floating different schemes with variety investment
objectives. This creates an opportunity among investors to choose the
schemes based on their objective, motivations, and requirements.
 In addition to the above advantages, the Indian mutual funds are
specifically offering the following benefits to the investors.

 In the case of investment in equity shares or debentures, the allotment


would be based on lost or proportional. Whereas, almost all the
mutual funds promise assure allotment to all investors to the extent of
amount subscribed by them. This reduces the investor’s time.
 Mutual funds offer certain tax incentives to the investors and
additional tax benefits for investing in tax planning schemes.

The presence of the Mutual fund institutions in the economy offers certain
advantages to the economy-

 Mutual funds are the financial intermediaries, which mobilize the savings
from surplus units and transfer them to the capital and money market by
investing in a variety of financial instruments.
 Mutual funs with support of their professional managers, carefully
analyses the prospects of new companies and new industries if the
prospects are good, subscribe large amounts to he equity and debt capital
of newly established companies.
 Mutual funds as institutional investors, with their professional expertise in
the stock trading. The increased participation of professional rational
investment reduces the undesirable speculation in the capital market.

Classification of Mutual Fund Schemes

Any mutual fund has an objective of earning income for the investor’s
and/ or getting increased value of their investments. To achieve these objectives
mutual funds adopt different strategies and accordingly offer different schemes
of investments. On this basis the simplest way to categorize schemes would be
to group these into

Operational classification highlights the two main types of schemes, i.e., open-
ended and close-ended which are offered by the mutual funds.

Portfolio classification projects the combination of investment instruments and


investment avenues available to mutual funds to manage their funds. Any portfolio
scheme can be either open ended or close ended

A. Operational Classification or on Structural basis:

Open Ended Schemes:

As the name implies the size of the scheme (Fund) is open – i.e., not
specified or pre-determined. Entry to the fund is always open to the investor
who can subscribe at any time. Such fund stands ready to buy or sell its
securities at any time. It implies that the capitalization of the fund is constantly
changing as investors sell or buy their shares. Further, the shares or units are
normally not traded on the stock exchange but are repurchased by the fund at
announced rates. Open-ended schemes have comparatively better liquidity
despite the fact that these are not listed. The reason is that investor can any time
approach mutual fund for sale of such units. No intermediaries are required.
Moreover, the realizable amount is certain since repurchase is at a price based
on declared net asset value (NAV). No minute-to-minute fluctuations in rates
haunt the investors. The portfolio mix of such schemes has to be investments,
which are actively traded in the market. Otherwise, it will not be possible to
calculate NAV. This is the reason that generally open-ended schemes are Equity
Based.

BABASAB PATIL
-13-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Moreover, desiring frequently traded securities, open-ended schemes


hardly have in their portfolio shares of comparatively new and smaller
companies since these are not generally traded. In such funds, option to reinvest
its dividend is also available. Since there is always a possibility of withdrawals,
the management of such funds becomes more tedious as managers have to work
from crisis to crisis. Crisis may be on two fronts, one is, that unexpected
withdrawals require funds to maintain a high level of cash available every time
implying thereby idle cash. Fund managers have to face questions like ‘ what to
sell’. He could very well have to sell his most liquid assets. Second, by virtue of
this situation such funds may fail to grab favorable opportunities. Further, to
match quick cash payments, funds cannot have matching realization from their
portfolio due to intricacies of the stock market. Thus, success of the open-ended
schemes to a great extent depends on the efficiency of the capital market. The
holders of the shares in the fund can resell them to issuing Mutual Fund
Company at any time They receive in turn the net asset value (NAV) of the
shares at the time of resale. Such mutual funds companies place their funds in
the secondary securities market. They do not participate in new issue markets
to pension funds or life insurance investment companies. Can sell an unlimited
number of shares and thus keep going larger. The open end mutual funds by or
sell their own share.

These companies ell new shares at NAV plus a loading or management


fee and redeem scheme at NAV. UTI’S Unit scheme, 1964 and CANCIGO
and CANGICT are few examples of such funds. The minimum corpus for and
open-ended fund is fifty crores a per SEBI guidelines.

(b) Close Ended Schemes:

Such schemes have a definite period after which their shares/units can be
redeemed. Unlike open-ended funds, these funds have fixed capitalization, i.e.,
their corpus normally does not change throughout its life period. Close ended
fund units trade among the investors in the secondary market since these are to
be quoted on the stock exchanges. Their price is determined on the basis of
demand and supply in the market. Their liquidity depends on the efficiency and

BABASAB PATIL
-14-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

understanding of the engage broker. Their price is free to deviate from NAV,
i.e., there is every possibility that the market price may be above or below its
NAV. If one takes into account the issue expenses, conceptually close ended
fund units cannot be traded at a premium or over NAV because the price of a
package of investments, i.e., cannot exceed the sum of the prices of the
investments constituting the package. Whatever premium exists that may exist
only on account of speculative activities. In India as per SEBI (MF) Regulations
every mutual fund is free to launch any or both types of schemes. Close– ended
mutual funds are different form the open-ended mutual fund. Close-ended and
investment company has definite target amount for the funds and can not sell
more shares after its initial offering. Its growth in terms of numbers is limited.
Its shares are issued like together company’s new issue listed and quoted at
stock ex change. That minimum corpus for Close-ended fund is Rs20 crores.
Close-ended funds changed funds the secondary market acquisition of corporate
securities.

There is no necessary relationship between the price of close-ended


mutual fund share and its NAV. Its shares may les per the current NAV per
share, per more,(at a premium) as per less(at discount). Investor’s doubts about
the abilities of the funds management lack of sales effort (brokers earn less
commission of close ended schemes then open ended schemes) risk ness of the
fund.

B. Portfolio classification of mutual funds.

These are specific mutual funds, which are structured for feeding a
particular invests able purpose. The objective of funds provide fixed return for
those who design safety

Equity (Stock) Funds:

Equity Funds are those that invest primarily in stock. The actual portfolio
holing, trading style, portfolio turnover, etc, are widely depending on the fund’s
investment objectives and manager’s style.

Aggressive Growth:

These funds are also called capital Appreciation fund. Having an investment
objective of maximum capital gains, with minimal or no concern for dividends or
income. These funds tend to be some of the most volatile, with share price rise that
can be thrilling and drop that can be frightening. Not only do the portfolios holding
them be volatile, but many aggressive growth funds magnify the volatility by using
borrowed money (leverage) to increase the size of the position held. Some funds in
this category growth funds fall into the aggressive growth area.

Aggressive growth funds purchase shares of stock in smaller companies, which


have a chance to grow at a faster pace than more “mature” companies. Of course,
there is also greater risk involved with investing in less established companies.
Aggressive growth funds are usually recommended for the investors who seek long-
term capital appreciation and will not need access to money for at least ten years.

Balanced:

Funds invest in a mix of common stock and corporate bonds. The weighting of
going piece of the mix depends on the fund manager’s perceptions of where the
markets and economy are going. Some preferred stock and convertible securities are
commonly allowed, as are cash equivalents such and Treasury Bills, CDs, and
commercial paper.

BABASAB PATIL
-16-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Global:

It is Similar to international, but with the option of investing anywhere


globally including the U.S.

Growth:

The goal for these funds is long-term growth of capital. Growth funds own
shares of medium to large companies, and could include such familiar “blue chip”
names as IBM and GENERAL ELECTRIC. Normally, these established companies
will grow at a moderate pace, and will pay regular dividends to owner of its shares. If
mutual fund is the owner the fund will collect these dividend and pass them to mutual
funds shareholders once are more per year. While capital appreciation is major
objective of these type of fund income derived from dividends is secondary objectives
investments are typically in long – growth stocks, with a lower portfolio turnover then
the aggressive growths funds. Dividends yield tend to be low.

Growth and income:

Despite the name, fund in this category are typically more interested in growth
than income with typical dividend rates on the portfolios in the 1% range. The usual
portfolio is Blue Chip stock, with some income enhancing securities like convertible
preferred stocks are bonds thrown in to the mix.

Index:

Unlike traditional stock funds, which are managed actively by a portfolio


manager based on analysis of economic and market movements, index funds are
passively managed. A passively managed fund buys and holds securities selected to
represent its unmanaged target index, such as standard and poor 500 index.

Sector:

BABASAB PATIL
-17-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Concentrates investments on a narrow market sector like Health care, internal


stocks, bio technology, and so on. Sector funds tend to be volatile as industry groups
fall into and out of favor; portfolios are diversified only within industry group.

Real estate funds:

Real estate funds are of close-ended type. The funds are named so because
primary investment is real estate ventures.

Bond funds:

Bond funds are objective of safety. Bond funds are liquid prices of funds
fluctuates with changing interest rates.

C. Geographical Classification of Mutual Funds

BABASAB PATIL
-18-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

National boundaries provide territorial restrictions on the sale and


purchase of mutual funds units or share, as is the case in commodity trade or
service in view of the, Mutual funds which operate with in the nation
boundaries are different form those which are meant for subscription of
foreigners or the countries national living out side its share. The classification is
of broadly tow types.

1) Domestic Mutual Funds

2) Offshore Mutual Funds

Domestic Mutual Funds

Domestic Mutual Funds are the saving schemes, which are open for
mobilizing saving of the nationals with in the country. All the Mutual fund
schemes in vogue in the country vis-à-vis, UTI, GIC Mutual Fund, LIC Mutual
Fund, SBI Mutual fund, CAN Bank Mutual Fund, PNBMF and BOIMF are the
domestic schemes.

Offshore Mutual Funds

The basic objective of opening offshore Mutual fund scheme is to attract


foreign capital for investment purposes in the country of the issuing company.
Offshore Mutual Funds thus facilitate cross border fund flow, which is a direct
route for getting foreign currency without political strings or domination on the
issue country.

From investment point of view too, offshore Mutual funds open up


domestic capital market to the international investor and global portfolio
investments.

The major point of difference between offshore Mutual funds and


Domestic Mutual funds is the currency and country risk for the global investors
as the source of funds from am broad because of high risk in a higher return in
the invested funds can be expected. Like domestic mutual funds, the offshore

BABASAB PATIL
-19-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Mutual funds can also be functionally classified into Close-ended or Open-


ended funds.

The Major Offshore Mutual Funds opened so far have been close-ended
schemes providing redemption of the units for individual investors only at the
end of the period specified in the scheme. UTIs India funds 1986, India growth
fund, SBIs India Magnum, Can Bank’s Indo-Swiss Himalayan fund, 1990 and
Common wealth equity fund are all close-ended offshore funds.

Characteristics of Mutual Fund Schemes

BABASAB PATIL
-20-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

The following are mutual fund scheme characteristics of the Indian


mutual fund schemes.

 Assurance of minimum returns:

Mutual funds in general do not assure any minimum returns to their


investors. Returns are paid to the investors, commensurate with the returns
earned by the fund on the portfolio, as portfolio consists of various securities,
whose returns are subject to market risks. Contrary to this, the Indian mutual
fund schemes launched during 1987 to 1990 assured specific returns while
marketing their schemes.

I n 1991, SEBI together with the union ministry of finance ordered the
mutual funds not assume minimum returns. Recently, SEBI has formulated of
policy that, mutual funds with a track record ;of 5 years will be allowed to offer
fixed returns. SEBI shall prescribe the returns to be assured from time to time.
However, no fund will be allowed to offer fixed return for more than 1 year.

 Multiple Option

Most of the mutual fund schemes are offering different option to the
investor under one scheme. For example growth oriented scheme may offer
option of either regular income plan, dividend shall be distributed to the
investor, and under second dividend will be re-invested and the total amount at
the time of redemption.

 Immediate monthly income.


 Deferred monthly income.
 Accumulated income and benefits under section 80 1 of the
income act.
 Growth with capital gain.

 Lock in period

BABASAB PATIL
-21-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Mutual fund schemes offer documents that contain a clause of lock in


period ranging from one year to 3 years. Till the completion of the minimum
period, the investors are neither allowed to trade the units on the stock exchange
nor avail repurchased facility.

 Liquidity

a) Open-ended mutual funds offer the facility of repurchase, and the close-
ended schemes are also offering repurchase after a minimum period of two to
three year.

b) Mutual funds units can be pledged or mortgaged in favor of commercial


banks or financial institutions, and can obtain a loan according to the rules and
regulations of the bank or financial institution.

c) Mutual fund can be transferred in favors of any individuals.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

BABASAB PATIL
-22-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

The purpose of the study is to know the returns and the risk associated with

the Mutual Fund’s Equity Diversified schemes and to find out which best scheme to

recommend.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY

 The present study includes 4 years average returns of the mutual funds, which

have the total corpus (mass, quantity, amount,) value, of more than 10000

crores.

 For my study I have scanned all the mutual funds companies and have taken

only those schemes which are having the corpus value of more than 400 crores

and age of the fund is more than 3 years.

 This study covers only equity diversified schemes which are subject to more

fluctuating risks and returns.

 Since the number and nature of stocks, the proportion of stocks in the portfolio

and the relative ness of portfolio to the index considered, differs, the portfolios

are averaged at 0.5 for these factors for variance determination.

 To evaluate the performance of the Mutual Fund schemes, Sharpe’s index,

Treynor’s index and Jensen’s Alpha measures are applied.

Measuring tools and Techniques:

BABASAB PATIL
-35-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Techniques of analysis:

1. Return:

Return on a typical investment consists of two components. The basic is the


periodic cash receipts (or income) on the investment, either in the form of interest or
dividends. The second component is the change in the price of the assets-commonly
called the capital gain or loss. This element of return is the difference between the
purchase price and the price at which the assets can be or is sold; therefore, it can be
a gain or a loss.

The return has been calculated as under:

NAVt – NAVt-1

Portfolio return: Rit =---------------------------------

NAV t-1

Where Rit is the difference between Net Asset Values for two consecutive days
dividend by the NAV of the preceding day.

M.indt – M.indt-1

Market return: Rmt =--------------------------------

M.indt-1

Where Rmt is the difference between market indices of two consecutive days
dividend by the market index for the preceding day

2. Risk :

Risk is neither good nor bad. Risk in holding securities is generally associated
with the possibility that realized returns will be less than expected returns. The
difference between the required rate of returns on mutual fund investment and the

BABASAB PATIL
-36-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

risk free return is the risk premium. Risk can be measured in terms of Beta &
standard deviations.

 Standard deviation:

It is used to measure the variation in individual returns from the average


expected returns over a certain period. Standard deviation is used in the concept of
risk of a portfolio of investments. Higher standard deviation means a greater
fluctuation in expected return.

SD = n ∑X2 – (∑X)2
n (n-1)

 Beta :

Beta measures the systematic risk and shows how prices of securities respond
to the market forces. It is calculated by relating the return on a security with return
for the market. By convention, market will have beta 1.0.Mutual fund is said to be
volatile, more volatile or less volatile. If beta is grater than 1 the stock is said to be
riskier than market. If beta is less than 1, the indication is that stock is less risky in
comparison to market. If beta is zero then the risk is the same as that of the market.
Negative beta is rare.

ß = Covar / (SD)2

Where, Covariance (covar) is the average of the products of deviations for


each data point pair. And, covar is calculated as:

Covar = 1/n Σ(xi –µ x)(yi - µy)

Where, x = scheme returns.

y = market returns.

BABASAB PATIL
-37-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

µ = mean.

β = nΣxy - (Σx)( Σy)

nΣx2-(Σx) 2

Where, n = number of years

X = rolling returns of the BSE index

Y = rolling returns of the schemes

3. Sharpe index

Sharpe index measures risk premium of a portfolio, relative to the total


amount of risk in the portfolio. Sharpe index summarizes the risk and return of a
portfolio in a single measure that categorizes the performance of funds on the risk-
adjusted basis. The larger the Sharpe’s index the portfolio over performs the market
and vise versa.

Formula to calculate Sharpe’s measure is:

RP - Rf
St =
BABASAB PATIL
-38-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

SD

Where,

st = Sharpe’s index

Rp= portfolio return

Rf= Risk free rate of return (5%)


SD= Standard Deviation of the port folio

4. Treynor’s Index

Treynor’s model is on the concept of the characteristics straight line. The


characteristics line has drawn a relationship between the market return and a specific
portfolio without taking into consideration any direct adjustment for risk. It is also
known as reward to volatility ratio and is defined as:

The formula for Treynor’s Index is:

Portfolio avg return (Rp) – risk-free rate of interest (Rf)

BABASAB PATIL
-39-
A study on “Performance Evaluation of Mutual Funds with
Reference to risk and return”

Treynor index (Tn) =

Beta coefficient of portfolio (Bp)

Rp -Rf

Tn =

Bp

It measures portfolio risk in terms of beta, which is weighted average of


individual security beta. The ratio is investors, for who the fund represents only a
fraction of their total assets. The higher the ratio better is the performance.

5. Alpha

The size of the alpha exhibits the stock’s unsystematic return and its average
return independent of market return. If the fund produces the expected return at the
level of risk assumed, the fund would have an alpha equal to zero. A positive alpha
indicates that the manager produced return greater than expected for the risk taken.
Alpha is calculated by comparing the fund’s actual performance with the risk-
adjusted expected return.

Where Rp = portfolio return

Rf = Risk free rate of return (5%)

2nd STEP

Equity diversified Schemes:

There are varieties of schemes offered by the AMCs. Equity diversified is one of

the schemes offered by the AMC. The selection criteria of schemes are totally based

on the fund size and age of the fund. The scheme, which has the corpus value of more

than 400crs and the age of the fund, is more then 3yrs only those funds are qualified

for the analysis.

Equity Diversified Fund diversifies their portfolio evenly across stocks and

industry sectors. The returns from them tend to be moderately high over a long-term

horizon but since the prices of equity shares fluctuate on the stock markets, the net

asset value is subject to these fluctuations. These funds suit investors who have

moderate risk appetite. In a diversified fund, the risk of down-side is mitigated by the

breadth of variety of stocks in the portfolio. Since the portfolio is diversified, the

BABASAB PATIL

under-performance in some stocks or sectors in which the fund has invested is

balanced by the superior performance of other stocks or sectors

Finding and Suggestions:

 According to the Absolute returns of the scanned Equity Diversified


Schemes of the top listed AMCs, Reliance Growth Fund (G) is the one
which is giving good returns from the date of launch.

 According to Sharpe’s performance Index we find that Pru ICICI


Dynamic Plan (G) is ranked as 1st and DSP-ML Equity Fund as 2nd rank
and Birla Equity Fund (G) as 3rd Rank. The Sharpe’s index considers
total risk of the Scheme.

 According to Treynor’s Performance Index, Pru ICICI Dynamic Plan (G)


is ranked as 1st followed by Reliance Vision Growth (G) (2nd Rank) and
Reliance Growth Fund (G) (3rd Rank).
The Treynor’s index considers the return premium for systematic
risk undertaken.

 According to Jensen’s Performance Index, Pru ICICI Dynamic Plan (G)


is ranked as 1st followed by Reliance Vision Fund (G) (2nd Rank) and
Reliance Growth Fund (G) (3rd Rank).
The Jensen’s index compares the actual or relized return of the
portfolio with calculated return and hence depicts the predictive ability
of the managerial personnel.

 According to all the three indexes Pru ICICI Dynamic Plan (G). is the
best equity diversified scheme because this particular scheme is having
the best risk adjusted rate of return.

 When we consider the systematic and un-systematic risk, Pru ICICI


Dynamic (G) has got 2.45% systematic risk and 97.55% of unsystematic
risk and Reliance vision (G) 80.11% systematic risk and 19.89% of
unsystematic risk. And other all schemes have 0% of Unsystematic risk
which means that they are diversified to the fullest extent and the risk is
only due to market factors.

Conclusion

The construction of the mutual fund scheme’s portfolio is done by taking

various factors so even after evaluating the mutual funds and ranking them we cannot

say which is the best scheme in all.
