INDUSTRY PROFILE
India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world with a rapidly expanding financial services sector. After

adjustments for purchasing power parity, Indias economy is the fourth largest in the world in terms of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). An efficient securities market provides the necessary channel for flow of resources from the providers of capital to the users of capital for economic development. The overall growth of the economy and activity are also important of resources. factors, which determine availability

Indian Finacial Sector

The Indian financial services industry has Experienced significant growth in the last few years. There has been a considerable broadening and deepening of the Indian financial markets due to various financial market reforms undertaken by the Indian regulators, the introduction of innovative financial instruments in recent years and the entry of sophisticated domestic and international financial services participants. Sectors such as banking, asset management and brokerage have been liberalized to allow private sector involvement, which has contributed to the development and modernization of the financial services sector.

This is particularly evident in the non-banking financial services sector, such as brokerage, residential mortgage and insurance services, where new products and expanding delivery channels have helped these sectors to achieve high growth rates recently.

Financial services accounted for approximately 14% of total GDP in fiscal 2007. The combined average daily turnover of the BSE and the NSE for different market segments has increased from approximately Rs. 4.8 billion in March 1996 to approximately Rs. 312.1 billion in March 2006. Over this period, there has also been a substantial growth in the market for other financial products such as insurance, and mutual funds.

Industry Outlook
Existing low penetration levels, increasing affordability of

credit and rising income levels have led to a growing demand for retail financial products. India has a substantial retail investor base throughout the country that has a large pool of untapped surplus funds. The market confidence of small investors has increased with growing levels of education and financial awareness, and the strengthening of regulatory systems. The financial services industry is undergoing consolidation. In the future, it is expected that market share will be captured by financial services providers who can offer a complete range of financial products and services.

SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

1) Giving Multi department skill, Multi work skill training to employees in order to give the tough competition to competitors and also employees become more skilled.

2)

Competitors like Karvy, Indiabulls, etc. are known better than Religare. The company lacks publicity. A good portion of the general public is not quite aware of the existence of such an investment firm like Religare, which caters to most of the available investing instruments. The company could undertake promotional activities with the general public as the target group. They could make aware of the services they render to the public. This could attract new customers which can be transformed into a long lasting relationship? This could be put into action by having print advertisements in papers like The Economic Times, Business Line, and Financial Express etc. Advertisement in CNBC-India could give a very good brand image to the company. 3) The company acts as a mediatory for most of the

investment options. It gives people access to a wide variety of mutual funds, Insurance schemes etc for third party companies. The company can start its own mutual fund and start investing in stocks, debts and government securities.

PART B RISK AND RETURN ANALYSIS OF MUTUAL FUNDS

RESEARCH EXTRACT

In the current economic scenario interest rates are falling and fluctuation in the share market has put investors in confusion. One finds it difficult to take decision on investment. This is primarily, because of investments are risky in nature and investors have to consider various factors before investing in investment avenues. These factors include risk, return, volatility of shares and liquidity. The main objective of comparing investment in different mutual fund schemes is to analyze the performance of mutual funds by using risk, return as a parameter. Historical data were taken for calculating risk, return. Analysis has done on percentage method for comparing mutual fund schemes. Compare to equities mutual funds are less risky with stable returns and mutual funds gives the investor a diversified portfolio. Those who have well knowledge in equity market they can go for equity investments rather that investing in mutual funds because no control on the expenses made by the fund manager. The study will guide new clients who want to invest in mutual fund schemes by providing knowledge about how to measure the risk and return of particular scrip or mutual fund scheme. The study recommends new investors to go for mutual funds rather than equities, because of high risk and market instability.

INTRODUCTION TO MUTUAL FUND

Background of the study
The mutual fund industry in India started in 1964 with the formation of Unit Trust of India, at the initiative of the Government of India. The 1993 SEBI Regulations were substituted by a more comprehensive and revised Mutual Fund Regulations in 1996.The end of millennium marks 40 years of existence of mutual funds in this country.The ride through these 40 years is not been smooth. Investor opinion is still divided.While some are for mutual funds others are against it. UTI commenced its operations from July 1964. The impetus for establishing a formal institution came from the desire to increase the propensity of the middle and lower groups to save and to invest. UTI came in to existence during a period marked by great political and economic turmoil that depressed the financial market; entrepreneurs were rather hesitant to enter the capital markets.

Concept of Mutual Fund

A mutual fund is a trust that pools the money of many investors:-

Its shareholders to invest in a variety of Different securities. Investments may be in stocks, combination of these bonds, money market securities or some

Those securities are professionally managed on behalf of the shareholders, entitled and to each any investor profits holds when a the prorate share are of the sold, portfolio securities

but subject to any losses in value as well. A mutual fund is a group of investors operating through a fund manager to purchase a diverse portfolio of stocks or bonds. There are myriad kinds of mutual funds, each with its own goals and methodologies. Whether or not a mutual fund is a good investment is a matter of much public debate, with many claiming they are excellent for the average person, and others saying they are simply a poor way to invest. For the individual investor, mutual funds provide the benefit of having someone else manage your investments, take care of recordkeeping for your account, and diversify your rupees 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 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.

Schemes of Mutual funds. (1) Schemes according to maturity period:A mutual fund scheme can be classified into open-ended scheme or close ended scheme depending on its maturity period.

Open-ended Scheme:
An open-ended fund or scheme is one that is available for subscription and repurchase on a continuous basis. These schemes do not have a fixed maturity period. Investors can conveniently buy and sell units at Net Asset Value (NAV) related prices which are declared on a daily basis.

The key feature of open-end schemes is liquidity.

Close-ended Scheme:
A close-ended fund or scheme has a stipulated maturity period e.g. 5-7 years. The fund is open for subscription only during a specified period at the time of launch of the scheme. Investors can invest in the scheme at the time of the initial public issue and thereafter they can buy or sell the units of the scheme on the stock exchanges where the units are listed. In order to provide an exit route to the investors, some close-ended funds give an option of selling back the units to the mutual fund through periodic repurchase at NAV related prices. SEBI Regulations stipulate that at least one of the two exit routes is provided to the investor i.e. either repurchase facility or through listing on stock exchanges. These mutual funds schemes disclose NAV generally on weekly basis.

(2) Schemes according to Investment Objective:A scheme can also be classified as growth scheme, income scheme, or balanced scheme considering its investment objective. Such schemes may be openended or close-ended schemes as described earlier. Such schemes may be classified mainly as follows:

Growth / Equity Oriented Scheme:

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 fund shave 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.

Income / Debt Oriented Scheme:

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.

Balanced Scheme:
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.

Money Market or Liquid Fund:

These funds are also income funds and their aim is to provide easy liquidity, preservation of capital and moderate income. These schemes invest exclusively in safer short-term instruments such as treasury bills, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and inter-banks call money, government securities, etc. Returns on these schemes fluctuate much less compared to other funds. These funds are appropriate for corporate and individual investors as a means to park their surplus funds for short periods.

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 weight age comprising of an index. NAV.s 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.

Sector Specific Schemes:

These are the funds/schemes which invest in the securities of only those sectors or industries as specified in the offer documents. E.g. Pharmaceuticals, Software, Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), Petroleum stocks, etc. The returns in these funds are dependent on the performance of the respective sectors/industries.

Tax Saving Schemes:

These schemes offer tax rebates to the investors under specific provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 as the Government offers tax incentives for investment in specified avenues. e.g. Equity Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS).

Pension schemes launched by the mutual funds also offer tax benefits. These schemes are growth oriented and invest pre-dominantly in equities. Their growth opportunities and risks associated are like any equity oriented scheme.

Advantages of Mutual Fund :

1. Professional Investment Management:By pooling the funds of thousands of investors, mutual funds provide full-time, high level professional management that few individual investors can afford to obtain independently. Such management is vital to achieving results in today's complex markets. Your fund managers' interests are tied to yours, because their compensation is based not on sales commissions, but on how well the fund performs.

2. 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 shareowners can benefit from diversification techniques usually available only to investors wealthy enough to buy significant positions in a wide variety of securities.

3. Low Cost:If you tried to create your own diversified portfolio of 50 stocks, you'd need at least Rs.1, 00,000 and you'd pay thousands of rupeesin commissions to assemble your portfolio. A mutual fund lets you participate in a diversified portfolio for as little as Rs.10, 000, and sometimes less. And if you buy a noload fund, you pay or no sale charges to own them.

4. Convenience and Flexibility:You own just one security rather than many, yet enjoy the benefit of a diversified portfolio and a wide range of services. Fund managers decide what securities to trade, clip the bond coupons, collect the interest payments and see that your dividends on portfolio securities are received and your rights exercised.

5. Quick, Personalized Service:Most funds now offer extensive websites with a host of shareholder services for immediate access to information about your fund account. Or a phone call puts you in touch with a trained investment specialist at a mutual fund company shares. who can provide information you can use to make your own investment choices, assist you with buying and selling your fund

6. Ease of Investing:You may open or add to your account and conduct transactions or business with the fund by mail, telephone or bank wire. You can even arrange for automatic monthly investments by authorizing electronic fund transfers from your checking account in any amount and on a date you choose.

7. Total Liquidity, Easy Withdrawal:You can easily redeem your shares anytime you need cash by letter, telephone, bank wire or check, depending on the fund. Your proceeds are usually available within a day or two.

8. Life Cycle Planning:With no-load mutual funds, you can link your investment plans to future individual and family needs and make changes as your life cycles change. You can invest in growth funds for future college tuition needs,then move to income funds for retirement, and adjust your investments as your needs change throughout your life.

9. Market Cycle Planning:For investors who understand how to actively manage their portfolio, mutual fund investments can be moved as market conditions change. You can place your funds in equities when the market is on the upswing and move into money market funds on the downswing or take any number of steps to ensure that your investments are meeting your needs in changing market climates.

10. Investor Information:Shareholders receive regular reports from the funds, including details of transactions on a year-to-date basis. The current net asset value of your shares (the price at which you may purchase or redeem them) appears in the mutual fund price listings of daily newspapers. You can also obtain pricing and performance results for the all mutual funds at this site, or it can be obtained by phone from the fund.

11. Periodic Withdrawals:If you want steady monthly income, many funds allow you to arrange for monthly fixed checks to be sent to you, first by distributing some or all of the income and then, if necessary, by dipping into your principal.

12. Dividend Options:You can receive all dividend payments in cash. Or you can have them reinvested in the fund free of charge, in which case the dividends are automatically compounded. This can make a significant contribution to your longterm investment results.

13. Automatic Direct Deposit:You can usually arrange to have regular, third-party payments such as Social Security or pension checks -- deposited directly into your fund account. This puts your money to work immediately, without waiting to clear your checking account, and it saves you from worrying about checks being lost in the mail.

14. Recordkeeping Service:With your own portfolio of stocks and bonds, you would have to do your own record keeping of purchases, sales, dividends, interest, short-term and long-term gains and losses. Mutual funds provide confirmation of your transactions and necessary tax forms to help you keep track of your investments and tax reporting.

15. Safekeeping:When you own shares in a mutual fund, you own securities in many companies without having to worry about keeping stock certificates in safe deposit boxes or sending them by registered mail. You don't even have to worry about handling the mutual fund stock certificates; the fund maintains your account on its books and sends you periodic statements keeping track of all your transactions.

Disadvantages of Mutual Fund:

There are certainly some benefits to mutual fund investing, but you

should also be aware of the drawbacks associated with mutual funds.

1. No Insurance:Mutual funds, although regulated by the government, are not insured against losses. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) only insures against certain losses at banks, credit unions, and savings and loans, not mutual funds. That means that despite the risk-reducing diversification benefits provided by mutual funds, losses can occur, and it is possible (although extremely unlikely) that you could even lose your entire investment.

2. Dilution:Although diversification reduces the amount of risk involved in investing in mutual funds, it can also be a disadvantage due to dilution. For example, if a single security held by a mutual fund doubles in value, the mutual fund itself would not double in value because that security is only one small part of the funds holdings. By holding a large number of different investments, mutual funds tend to do neither exceptionally well nor exceptionally poorly.

3. Fees and Expenses:Most mutual funds charge management and operating fees that pay for the fund's management expenses (usually around 1.0% to 1.5% per year). In addition, some mutual funds charge high sales commissions,

12b-1 fees, and redemption fees. And some funds buy and trade shares so often that the transaction costs add up significantly. Some of these expenses are charged on an ongoing basis, unlike stock investments, for which a commission is paid only when you buy and sell (see Investor Guide University: Fees and Expenses).

4. Poor Performance:Returns on a mutual fund are by no means guaranteed. In fact, on average, around 75% of all mutual funds fail to beat the major market indexes, like the S&P 500, and a growing number of critics now question whether or not professional money managers have better stock-picking capabilities than the average investor.

5. Loss of Control:The managers of mutual funds make all of the decisions about which securities to buy and sell and when to do so. This can make it difficult for you when trying to manage your portfolio. For example, the tax consequences of a decision by the manager to buy or sell an asset at a certain time might not be optimal for you. You also should remember that you trust someone else with your money when you invest in a mutual fund.

6. Trading Limitations:Although mutual funds are highly liquid in general, most mutual funds (called open ended funds) cannot be bought or sold in the middle of the trading day. You can only buy and sell them at the end of the day, after they've calculated the current value of their holdings.

7. Size:Some mutual funds are too big to find enough good investments. This is especially true of funds that focus on small companies, given that there is strict rules about how much of a single company a fund may own. If a mutual fund has $5 billion to invest and is only able to invest an average of $50 million in each, then it needs to find at least 100 such companies to invest in; as a result, the fund might be forced to lower its standards when selecting companies to invest in.

8. Inefficiency of Cash Reserves:Mutual funds usually maintain large cash reserves as protection against a large number of simultaneous withdrawals. Although this provides investors with liquidity, it means that some of the fund's money is invested in cash instead of assets, which tends to lower the investor's potential return.

9. Different Types:The advantages and disadvantages listed above apply to mutual funds in general. However, there are over 10,000 mutual funds in operation, and these funds vary greatly according to investment objective, size, strategy, and style. Mutual funds are available for virtually every investment strategy (e.g. value, growth), every sector (e.g. biotech, internet), and every country or region of the world, so even the process of selecting a fund can be tedious.

Risk Involved in Mutual Funds

All investments involve some form of risk, which should be evaluated them potential rewards when an investment is selected.

Managing risk At times the prices or yields of all the securities in a particular market rise or fall due to broad outside influences. When this happens, the stock prices of both an outstanding, highly profitable company and a fledgling corporation may be affected. This change in price is due to market risk. Interest rate risk sometimes referred to as .loss of purchasing power.Whenever inflation sprints forward faster than the earnings on your investment, you run the risk that you will actually be able to buy less, not more. Inflation risk also occurs when prices rise faster than your returns.

Credit risk in short, how stable is the company or entity to which you lend your money when you invest? How certain are you that it will be able to pay the interest you are promised, or repay your principal when the investment matures?

Inflation risk Changing interest rates affect both equities and bonds in many ways. Investors are reminded that .predicting. Which way rates will go is rarely successful. A diversified portfolio can help in offsetting these changes. Effect of loss of key professional and inability to adopt an industry.

Key asset

is often the personnel who run the business i.e. intellectual

properties of the key employees of the respective companies. Given the everchanging complexion of few industries and the high obsolescence levels, availability of qualified, trained and motivated personnel is very critical for the success of industries in few sectors. It is, therefore, necessary to attract key personnel and also to retain them to meet the changing environment and challenges the sector offers. Failure or inability to attract/retain such qualified key personnel may impact the prospects of the companies in the particular sector in which the fund invests.

Exchange risks A number of companies generate revenues in foreign Currencies and may have investments or expenses also denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in exchange rates may, therefore, have a positive or negative impact on companies which in turn would have an effect on the investment of the fund.

Investment risks The sectoral fund schemes, investments will be Predominantly in equities of select companies in the particular sectors. Accordingly, the NAV of the schemes are linked to the equity performance of such companies and may be more volatile than a more diversified portfolio of equities.

Changes in government policy

Changes in Government policy especially in regard to the tax benefits may impact the business prospects of the companies leading to an impact on the investments made by the fund.

Statement of the Problem

In the current economic scenario fluctuation in the share market has put investors in confusion. One finds it difficult to take decision on investment. This is primarily, because investments are risky in nature and investors have to consider various factors before investing in investment avenues. Therefore the study aims at comparing mutual fund schemes in form their risk, return &liquidity and also creating awareness about Mutual Fund Schemes among the investors.

Objectives of the Study

Saving money is not enough. Each of us also need to invest ones savings intelligently in order to have enough money available for funding the higher education of ones children, for buying a house, or for ones own golden years. But the rapidly growing number of investment avenues often led to confusion. Objectives of the study are to provide information to goals and attitude to risk. individual investors regarding their risk, and choosing the best investment options to match their

1. To compare Mutual Fund Schemes in respect of their risk & return. 2. Analyzing the performance of mutual fund schemes. 3. Provide information about pros and cons of investing in Mutual Funds.

Scope of the study.

The project primarily deals with mutual funds, The study is limited to

compare different mutual fund schemes in respect of their risk, & return The study covers 2 sectors (FMGC and infrastructure),Index Fund Sensex Plan and Midcap Fund 12 randomly selected mutual fund schemes(3 for each segment) out of mutual fund industry in India for comparison. The analysis is strictly based on unit price information. Other company performance indicators are not considered. It focuses on every month ending closing prices of during the period from1ST JUNE, 2004 to 31ST JUNE, 2007.

Limitations of the Study

The time period for the project was limited to only one and half month and information provided is limited to the extent of internet and journals

Research Design
The whole study can be termed as comparative study. It is also a desk research hence; there is no field work and collection of primary date for this research. The study centers on comparing different mutual fund schemes in respect of their risk, return and liquidity. However, with the objective and scope of the study in mind, it was decided to base the study on return series of selected mutual fund schemes. Since it is not possible to compare all the Mutual Fund Schemes due to time and resource constraints, sampling techniques were considered. Randomly selected samples will facilitate inference of the population, in our case mutual fund industry in India. Hence by stratified random sampling 12 mutual fund schemes out of whole mutual fund industry were selected. Mutual funds schemes were selected according to their weight age of the FMGC, infrastructure midcap and sensex stocks in the portfolio of schemes. Monthly unit prices of the selected from historical data. In order to avoid bias, at least three years monthly data was decided to be necessary. The reference period is from 1ST JUNE, 2004 to 31ST JUNE, 2007.

Recommendations

Following are the recommendations given to investors for investing rationally in mutual fund schemes Aggressive Growth Funds
Investors who can assume the risk of potential loss in value of their investment in the hope of achieving substantial and rapid gains. They are not suitable for investors who must conserve their principal or who must maximize current income.

Growth Funds
Although growth funds are more conservative than aggressive growth funds, they are still relatively volatile. They are suitable for growthoriented investors but not investors who are unable to assume risk or who are dependent on maximizing current income from their investments.

Growth and Income Funds

Growth and income funds have low to moderate stability of principal and moderate potential for current income and growth. They are suitable for investors who can assume some risk to achieve growth of capital but who also want to maintain a moderate level of current income.

Fixed-Income Funds
Fixed-income funds are suitable for investors who want to maximize current income and who can assume a degree of capital risk in order to do so. Again, carefully read the prospectus to learn if a fund's investment policy with respect to yield and risk coincides with your own objectives.

Balanced/Equity Income funds

Balanced and equity income funds are suitable for conservative investors who want high current yield with some growth.

Money Market Funds
