INDUSTRY PROFILE
Introduction:
Capital market is the backbone of any country’s economy. It
facilitates conversion of savings to investments. Capital market can be
classified as primary and secondary market. The fresh issue of securities takes
place in primary market and trading among investors takes place in
secondary market. Primary market is also known as new issue market. Equity
first enter capital market though investment in primary market. In India,
common investors participating in the equity primary market is massive. The
number of companies offering equity though primary markets increased
continuously in the post independence period till the year 1995. After 1995,
there is a continuous slump experienced by the primary market offering
equity. The main reason for slump is lack of investors’ confidence in the
primary market. So it is important to understand the causes and measures of
revival of investors’ confidence leading to capital mobilizing and investment
in right avenues creating, economic growth in the country.
“The Securities market is the market for equity, debt and derivatives.” The
securities market has essentially 3 categories that is the issuer of securities,
the investors in the securities and intermediaries. The issuers are the
borrowers or deficit savers, who issue securities to raise funds. The investors,
who are surplus savers, deploy their savings by subscribing to these
securities. The intermediaries were the agents who match the needs of the
users and suppliers of funds for a commission.
Historically, many investors and been made much before they become
innovations. Inventions become innovations and ignited industrial revolution
when liquid financial market made it possible to develop projects that require
large capital injections for long periods. The industrial revolution had wait the
financial revolution took place.
Since high projects tend to comparatively risky, stock market that facilitates
risk diversification through international integration can encourage a shift to
higher return projects and thereby help to promote growth.
Large active and liquid stock markets induce investors to research and
monitor firm and the resulting improved information improves resource
allocation and accelerates growth.
The origin of the stock exchange in India can be traced back to the later of
the 19th century. After the American civil war (1860-61) due to the share mania
of public, the number of brokers dealing in share increased. The brokers
organized an informal association of brokers dealing in share increased. The
brokers association” in 1975. At presently in India there are 23 stock
Exchanges are there and situated in various part of the country. All the stock
exchanges in India are controlled by SEBI (Security Exchange Board of India).

of 1997, the NSE was more liquid for the 835 scraps that accounted for 97% of
total trading volume. In number of trades, an indicator of the presence of the
retail investor, the NSE was ahead of the BSE.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
With the entry of private sector Funds in 1993, a new Era started in the
Indian Mutual Fund Industry giving the Indian investors a wider choice of
fund families. Also in 1993 was the year in which the first mutual fund
regulation came into existence under which all Mutual Funds, except UTI were
to be registered and governed. The Erstwhile Kothari Pioneer (now merged
with Franklin Templeton) was the first private sector Mutual Fund Registered
in July 1993.
The 1993 SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations were substituted by a more
comprehensive and revised Mutual Fund Regulation in 1996. The industry
now function under the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations 1996.
The number of Mutual Funds houses went on increasing with many
foreign mutual funds setting up funds in India and also the industry has
witnessed several mergers and acquisition. As at the end of January 2003,
there were 33 mutual funds with total assets of Rs. 1,21,805 corers. The UTI
with Rs. 44,541 corers of assets Under Management was way ahead of the
Mutual Funds.
The second in the UTI Mutual Funds LTD, sponsored by SBL, PNB and
LIC. It is registered with SEBI and functions under the Mutual Funds
Regulation. With the bifurcation of the Erstwhile UTI which has in March 2000
more than Rs. 76,000 corers of AUM and with the setting of the UTI Mutual
Fund, confirming to the SEBI Mutual Fund Regulations and with recent
mergers taking place among different private sector funds, the Mutual Fund
industry has entered his current phase of consolidation and growth. As at the
end of September 2004, there were 29 Funds which manage assets of Rs.
1,53,108 corers under 421 schemes.
NOTE:-
Erstwhile UTI was bifurcated into UTI Mutual Fund and the specific
undertaking of the UTI effective from February 2003. The AUM of the
specified undertaking of the UTI has, therefore been excluded from the total
assets.
For 30 years it goaled without a single second player. Through the 1988
year saw some new Mutual Fund companies, nut UTI remained in monopoly
position.
The AUM of UTI was Rs. 67billion, by the end of 1987. Let me
concentrate about the performance of Mutual Funds in India through figures.
From Rs. 67billion, the AUM raise to Rs. 470billion in March 1993 and the
figure had a 3 times higher performance by April 2004. It raise as high as Rs.
1,540billion.
The Net Asset value (NAV) of Mutual Funds in India declined when stock
prices started falling in the year 1992. Those days, the market regulation did
not allow portfolio shifts into alternative investments. These were rather no
choices apart from holding the cash or to further continue investing in shares.
One more thing to be noted, since only closed-end Funds were floated in the
market, the investors disinvested by selling at a loss in the secondary market.
The measure was taken to make Mutual Fund the key instrument for
long-term saving. The more the variety offered, the quantitative will be
investors.
Trust:-
The Trustee as the Investment Manager of the Mutual Fund appoints the
AMC. The AMC is required to be approved by the SEBI to act as an asset
management company of the mutual fund. At least 50% of the directors of
AMC are an independent director who is not associated with the Sponsor in
any manner. The AMC must have a net worth of at least 10 corers at all times.
The AMC if so authorized by the Trust Deed appoints the Registrar and
Transfer Agent to the Mutual Fund. The Registrar processes the application
form redemption request and dispatches account statement to the unit
holders. The Registrar and Transfer Agent also handle communication with
investors and updates investor records.
Diversification:-
Professional Management:-
Regulatory Oversight:-
Liquidity:-
It’s easy to get your money out of mutual fund. Write a check, make a
call, and you’ve got the cash.
Convenience:-
You can usually buy mutual fund shares by mail, phone or over the
Internet.
Mutual fund expenses are often no more than 1.5% of your investment.
Expenses for Index finds are less than that, because index funds are not
actively managed. Instead they automatically buy stock bin companies that
are listed on specific index.
Transparency
Flexibility
Choice of Scheme
Tax Benefit
Well Regulated
Mutual funds have their drawbacks and may not be for everyone
No Guarantees:-
Taxes:-
Management Risk:-
When you invest in mutual fund, you depend on the fund’s manager to
make the right decision regarding the fund’s portfolio. If the manager does not
perform as well as you had hoped, you might not make much money on your
investment as you expected. Of course, if you invest in index funds, you forego
management risk, because these funds do not employ managers.
Open-ended Scheme:-
Close-ended Schemes:-
The close-ended scheme has a fixed corpus and operates for fixed.
Period:-
Hybrid/Balanced Scheme:-
These schemes offer tax rebates to the investor under specific provision
of the Income Tax, 1961 as the Govt. offers the tax incentives for investment in
specified avenues. E.g. Equity Linked Saving Schemes (ELSS). Pension Scheme
launched by the mutual funds also offers 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.
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are mutual fund schemes that are listed
and traded on exchange like stocks. ETFs trading value is based on the net
asset value (NAV) of the assets it represents. Generally, ETFs invest in a basket
of stocks and try to replicate a stock market index such as the S&P CNX Nifty
or BSE Sense, a market sector such as energy or technology, or a commodity
such as gold or petroleum.
Recently, the SEBI amended its regulations and allowed mutual funds
launch gold exchange-traded funds (GETFs) in India. Two mutual funds, UTI
mutual fund and Benchmark Mutual Fund, have been launched. These funds
got listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
These funds are also income funds and their aims is to provide easy
liquidity, preservation of capital and moderate income these schemes invest
exclusively in safer short term instrument such as treasury bills certificates of
deposit commercial paper and interbank call money government securities
etc return on these scheme 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.
Real estate Mutual Funds invest only in real estate and properties.
Leverage Fund:-
Hedge Funds:-
Such type of Mutual Funds like Leverage Funds employs their Funds in
speculative trading in shares. They buy shares whose prices are expected to
rise and sell those whose prices whose are going to fall in future.

Bank deposits are made by the depositors mainly with a view to earn
steady interest on the deposit. Bank deposits are of various kinds such as
saving deposit, fixed deposit, and recurring deposits etc..
Bank deposits have played significance role in garnering saving of the people
particularly after the nationalization. Most of the people are interested to
deposit their money in banks for safety and convenience. Now on a day people
prefer for safety rather than income, banks also have expanded tremendously
in the interest rates and introduction of the innovative deposit scheme are
attracting public.
Look at the rating on the FD even if the rates of interest on FD may be high
you may want to invest your money in an instrument that is safer.
See what are the tenures offered for investment they may vary from 15 days
up to 10 years.

Option for traditional FD is only if you need the finds inflow of at regular
intervals. If not and you have steady flow of income go for the cumulative FD.

Equity Shares also called as ownership Shares, which do not enjoy any
preferential rights either in respect of the payment divided or in respect of
the re-payment of capital at the time of winding up of the company. The
holders of these Shares are the real owners of the company.

Debentures

‘to owe’. So literally debenture means a document acknowledging a debt.
Kinds of Debentures:-
Simple debentures are those which are issued with a mere promise to
pay the interest and to repay the interest and to pay the principal without any
charge on the assets of the company.
From the point of view of redemption debentures may be divided into two

Findings
FINDINGS
SUGESSTIONS
The investor is not having any knowledge about Mutual Funds. So the
company should tell them and they may be ready to invest their money
in Mutual Funds.
The company can increase its market in the areas of Mutual Funds also.
It can be done through targeting the equity market customers and
convincing them to invest in Mutual Funds also.
CONCLUSION
A mutual fund brings peoples together and it’ll make a group of people
and invest their money in stock, bonds, and other securities.
In this report here we can say that there is a lack of knowledge towards
the Mutual Funds in stock market.
Most of the investors thought that Mutual Funds are one-way ticket to a
jackpot but it is not so……
