Introduction of mutual fund
7
Structure of Mutual Funds:
In India mutual funds function as trust created under the Indian Trust
Act, 1882. There are three layers of mutual fund in India. (i) Sponsors
(ii) Trustee and (iii) Asset Management Company. Sponsors work as
Promoters of the company. They take responsibility of starting mutual
fund business. Sponsors contribute initial capital (40% of net worth of
AMC) and appoint Trustees and Board of Trustees. Board of Trustees
act as guardians of investors and ensure that money invested by
investors is used according to the objective of the scheme. Asset
Management Company is the public face of fund management
business. Sponsors and Trustees together form AMC and appoint Fund
Manager. Fund manager with help of fund management team makes all
investment decisions.

Role of Mutual Funds
9
Portfolio Diversification
Do not Put All Eggs in One Basket’. Mutual Fund is the best vehicle to
apply this proverb in practical life as a diversified equity scheme invests
across multiple sectors and stocks. A typical diversified equity scheme
holds around 30 to 50 stocks in portfolio so even if few stocks or sectors
do not perform well investor’s money can get protected
Liquidity
At times, investors in financial markets are stuck with a security for
which they can’t find a buyer – worse, at times they can’t find the
company they invested in! Such investments become illiquid
investments, which can end in a complete loss for investors.
Diversification of Risk
Whatever is your investment amount, that amount gets diversified
across multiple stocks held by fund manager.
Tax benefits
Specific schemes of mutual funds give investors the benefit of
deduction of the amount invested, from their income that is liable to
tax. This reduces their taxable income, and therefore the tax liability.
Further, the dividend that the investor receives from the scheme, is tax-
free in his hands.
10
Systematic Investment Plan (SIP)
A Systematic Investment Plan allows an investor to buy units of a
mutual fund scheme on a regular basis by means of periodic
investments into that scheme in a manner similar to installments paid
on purchase of normal goods. The investor is allotted units on a
predetermined date specified in the application form of the scheme
based on that day’s NAV. Here the Plan allows the investor to take
advantage of the Rupee Cost Averaging methodology.
Disciplined Investment
11
Through an SIP, an investor pledges to invest a fixed amount of money
on a monthly basis in a mutual fund scheme for a predetermined time
period. Also SIP provides the investor with the flexibility to increase
the amount of his monthly installment at any time.
Affordable
Investments do not necessarily mean that one has to collect a
substantial chunk of money to invest. One can start investing with a
very small amount through an SIP.
Easy to Invest
When we think monthly installments, we generally think of one more
date to remember apart from the bill payment dates. That is not the
case with an SIP. You have the convenience of direct debit of your SIP
installments through Electronic Clearing Service (ECS) facility. Your
SIP amount automatically gets debited from your bank account on
the predetermined date

Equity - The best asset class
Equity gives best inflation adjusted return among all asset classes over
a long period of time.

helped outperform various other investment avenues and has also
helped beat inflation by a huge margin.
Portfolio Management System
14
Equity Mutual Funds:
Income Funds:
15
These are the debt category of funds. They invest in fixed income
generating instruments and that is why they are broadly called income
funds. They invest in large universe of debt instruments like money
market instruments, T bill, corporate bonds, government securities etc.
The main objective of Income funds is to generate steady return at
lower level of risk. Based on underlying assets and duration these
funds can be classified in different categories like gilt funds and
income funds. As name suggests gilt funds invest only in government
securities where as income funds invest in corporate bonds and
debentures along with G secs. As gilt funds invest only in G sec there
is no default risk involved. Both Income funds and Gilt funds are
mainly affected by changes in interest rates in the economy.
Liquid Funds:
16
These schemes are similar to equity schemes with only difference
being it comes with 3 year lock in period and provide Section 80 C
benefit under income tax. By investing Rs.1 lakh in any of the ELSS
scheme available, an investor can save tax by claiming deduction under
Section 80 C. Like equity funds, ELSS also invests in equity shares and
subject to risks associated with stock market.
17
Net Asset Value is the price of one single unit of the scheme. It is
derived at my deducting fund’s liabilities from market value of assets
and dividing by number of units outstanding. i.e. (Market Value of
investments ï' Liabilities) / Number of units outstanding.
This is a fee charged when you buy or sell the units of the scheme.
Entry load is charged when you enter (purchase) units and exit load is
charged when you exit (sell) units of the scheme.
When you buy units, you pay a certain percentage of NAV as fee
which is known as entry load. When you sell units, similarly you get
money after exit load getting deducting from your sell price. e.g. If you
invest Rs. 10000 in a scheme with NAV of Rs.10 and entry load of
2.25% you will get 977.995 units (Rs. 10000/Rs.10.225) similarly
when you sell the same number of units at Rs. 20 with exit load of 2%
you will get Rs.19168.702 ( units 977.995 * Rs. 19.6 per unit) after
excluding exit load of 2%.
18
Financial markets today offer enormous growth potential. But
managing your own investments can be an extremely challenging task.
Anticipating market trends, assessing the impact of socio-economic
changes on your investments, keeping abreast of latest corporate
developments and financial analysis all adds up. Managing one’s
investments can become nearly a full-time affair that requires
considerable time and expertise.
During your journey of life, you need to make numerous plans and take
important decisions. Some of these decisions have strong financial
implications and can alter the course of your life and when it comes to
investing your hard earned money, you need to partner with someone
you trust, one who will make your money work hard.

2. Continuous Monitoring – It is important to recognize that
portfolios need to be constantly monitored and periodic changes
should be made to optimize the results.
3. Risk Control – The investment manager employs a qualified
research team to establish the investor's investment strategy and
providing the information to the investment manager. This also
helps in reducing the investment related risks up to significant
extent.
4. Hassle Free Operation – The investment manager gives the
investor a customised service. He takes care of all the
administrative aspects of the investor's portfolio with a periodic
reporting on the overall status of the portfolio and performance.
The investment manager provides various types of reports to his
investors on a regular basis. These reports are related to the
transactions made on their behalf, current holdings of the
investment portfolio and realized Profits and Losses to name a
few.
5. Flexibility – The Portfolio Manager has fair amount of
flexibility in terms of investing patterns and procedures. He can
create a reasonable concentration in the investor portfolios by
investing disproportionate amounts in favour of compelling
opportunities
6. Transparency – PMS provides comprehensive
communications and performance reporting. Investors will get
regular statements and updates from the investment manager.
20
Actively managed funds are funds where the fund manager has
the flexibility to choose the investment portfolio, within the broad
parameters of the investment objective of the scheme. Since this
increases the role of the fund manager, the expenses for running
the fund turn out to be higher. Investors expect actively managed
funds to perform better than the market.
21
Junk bond schemes or high yield bond schemes invest in
companies that are of poor credit quality. Such schemes operate
on the premise that the attractive returns offered by the investee
companies makes up for the losses arising out of a few companies
defaulting.
22
such that the principal amount invested in the zero-coupon
security, together with the interest that accumulates during the
period of the scheme would grow to the amount that the investor
invested at the start.
Suppose an investor invested Rs 10,000 in a capital protected
scheme of 5 years. If 5-year government securities yield 7% at
that time, then an amount of Rs 7,129.86 invested in 5-year zerocoupon
government securities would mature to Rs 10,000 in 5
In the past decade, Indian mutual fund industry had seen a dramatic
imporvements, both qualitywise as well as quantitywise. Before, the
monopoly of the market had seen an ending phase, the Assets Under
Management (AUM) was Rs. 67bn. The private sector entry to the fund
family rose the AUM to Rs. 470 bn in March 1993 and till April 2004,
it reached the height of 1,540 bn.
The main reason of its poor growth is that the mutual fund industry in
India is new in the country. Large sections of Indian investors are yet
to be intellectuated with the concept. Hence, it is the prime
responsibility of all mutual fund companies, to market the product
correctly abreast of selling.
23
The mutual fund industry can be broadly put into four phases according
to the development of the sector. Each phase is briefly described as
under.
Entry of non-UTI mutual funds. SBI Mutual Fund was the first
followed by Canbank Mutual Fund (Dec 87), Punjab National Bank
Mutual Fund (Aug 89), Indian Bank Mutual Fund (Nov 89), Bank of
India (Jun 90), Bank of Baroda Mutual Fund (Oct 92). LIC in 1989 and
GIC in 1990. The end of 1993 marked Rs.47,004 as assets under
management.
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, 1993 was the year in which the first Mutual
Fund Regulations came into being, 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.
24
The 1993 SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations were substituted by a more
comprehensive and revised Mutual Fund Regulations in 1996. The
industry now functions under the SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations
1996.
This phase had bitter experience for UTI. It was bifurcated into two
separate entities. One is the Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of
India with AUM of Rs.29,835 crores (as on January 2003). The
Specified Undertaking of Unit Trust of India, functioning under an
administrator and under the rules framed by Government of India and
does not come under the purview of the Mutual Fund Regulations.
The second is the UTI Mutual Fund Ltd, sponsored by SBI, PNB, BOB
and LIC. It is registered with SEBI and functions under the Mutual
Fund Regulations. With the bifurcation of the erstwhile UTI which had
in March 2000 more than Rs.76,000 crores of AUM and with the
setting up of a UTI Mutual Fund, conforming to the SEBI Mutual Fund
Regulations, and with recent mergers taking place among different
private sector funds, the mutual fund industry has entered its current
phase of consolidation and growth. As at the end of September, 2004,
there were 29 funds, which manage assets of Rs.153108 crores under
421 schemes.

to know that these are very secure schemes. The investors who want to
take very minimum risk debt funds are good schemes for those
investors.
So we can say that debt funds schemes are good schemes for
investment if you have some spare or use less money.
