EXECUTIVE SUMMERY
There are so many investment avenues. So that investors does not know
which avenues provides best return. As per the financial rule of Do not put all
the eggs in one basket investors portfolio are most diversified. So that risk
should be minimized. If the person do not have knowledge of how to get
maximum return with minimum risk or vice-versa then they should invest in
mutual fund. There are so many funds and schemes are available in mutual
fund market. Investors know that how much risk they can take and based on
that they have to choose schemes. The primary object of the present project
is to know about which mutual funds gave highest performance within oneyear.
This study has been undertaken to evaluate the performance of the Indian
Mutual Funds vis--vis the Indian stock market. For the purpose of this study,
10 open ended equity based growth mutual funds were selected as the
Sample. The data, which is the quarterly NAVs of the funds and the closing of
the S & P NIFTY Index, were collected for a period of 1 year starting
01/01/2013. to 31/12/2013.
Different statistical tools were used on the data obtained to calculate the
Average returns, Standard deviation, Fund Beta, Treynors Performance
Index, Sharpes Performance Index and Jensens Alpha. These variables of
the funds were compared with the same variables of the market to assess
how the different funds have performed against the market.
Data we have used to calculate average returns are 10 funds quarterly
returns and S & P NIFTYs quarterly returns for the year 2013. Data we have
used to calculate standard deviation of portfolio (p) is the average return of
mutual fund and market. Data we have used to calculate beta of portfolio (p)
is the covariance of the returns of the fund and market and variance of the
market.
9
We have used return of portfolio (mutual fund) i.e. Rp, return of risk free
securities i.e. Rf and beta of portfolio to calculate Treynors Performance
Index. We have used return of portfolio i.e. Rp, return of risk free securities
i.e. Rf and standard deviation of portfolio to calculate Sharpes Performance
Index. We have used Rp, Rf, p and Rm i.e. return of market to calculate
Jensens alpha.
Sharpe and Treynor model are used to compare the performance of mutual
funds and rank them according to their performance. Jensen model is used to
calculate the fund managers stock selection capability.
In this project we have calculated Sharpe, Treynor and Jensens performance
index of 10 mutual funds and rank them according to that. We have also
calculated the same for market to compare the performance of mutual funds
with the market and to check whether the mutual funds can beat the market or
not.

Mutual funds are investment companies that pool money from investors at
large and offer to sell and buy back its shares on a continuous basis and use
the capital thus raised to invest in securities of different companies. The
stocks these mutual funds have are very fluid and are used for buying or
redeeming and/or selling shares at a net asset value. Mutual funds posses
shares of several companies and receive dividends in lieu of them and the
earnings are distributed among the share holders.
2
Mutual funds are conceived as institutions for providing small investors with
avenues of investments in the capital market. .Since small investors generally

do not have adequate time, knowledge, experience and resources for directly
accessing the capital market, they have to rely on an intermediary, which
undertakes informed investment decisions and provides consequential
benefits of professional expertise.
Mutual funds have diversified investments spread in calculated proportions
amongst securities of various economic sectors. Mutual funds get their

earnings in two ways. First, is the most organic way, which is the dividend
they get on the securities they hold? Second, is by the redemption of their
shares by investors will be at a discount to the current NAVs (net asset
values).

The mutual fund industry has been in India for a long time. This came into
existence in 1963 with the establishment of Unit Trust of India, a joint effort by
the Government of India and the Reserve Bank of India. The next two
decades from 1986 to 1993 can be termed as the period of public sector
funds with entry of new public sector players into the mutual fund industry
namely, Life Insurance Corporation of India and General Insurance

Corporation of India.
6
The year of 1993 marked the beginning of a new era in the Indian mutual
fund industry with the entry of private players like Morgan Stanley, J.P
Morgan, and Capital International. This was the first time when the mutual
fund regulations came into existence.
SEBI (Security Exchange Board of India) was established under which all the
mutual funds in India were required to be registered. SEBI was set up as a
governing body to protect the interest of investor. By the end of 2008, the
number of players in the industry grew enormously with 46 fund houses
functioning in the country.
With the rise of the mutual fund industry, establishing a mutual fund
association became a prerequisite. This is when AMFI (Association of Mutual
Funds India) was set up in 1995 as a non-profit organization. Today AMFI
ensures mutual funds function in a professional and healthy manner thereby
protecting the interest of the mutual funds as well as its investors.
The mutual fund industry is considered as one of the most dominant players
in the world economy and is an important constituent of the financial sector
and India is no exception. The industry has witnessed startling growth in
terms of the products and services offered, returns churned, volumes
generated and the international players who have contributed to this growth.
Today the industry offers different schemes ranging from equity and debt to
fixed income and money market.
7
The market has graduated from offering plain vanilla and equity debt
products to an array of diverse products such as gold funds, exchange traded

funds
(ETFs), and capital protection oriented funds and even thematic funds. In
addition investments in overseas markets have also been a significant step.
Due credit for this evolution can be given to the regulators for building an
appropriate framework and to the fund houses for launching such different
7
http://www.getcited.org/pub/103509466
15
products. All these reasons have encouraged the traditional conservative

investor, from parking fund in fixed deposits and government schemes to
investing in other products giving higher returns.
8
It is interesting to note that the major benefits of investing in a mutual funds is
to capitalize on the opportunity of a professionally managed fund by a set of

fund managers who apply their expertise in investment. This is beneficial to
the investors who may not have the relevant knowledge and skill in investing.
Besides investors have an opportunity to invest in a diversified basket of
stocks at a relatively low price. Each investor owns a portion of the fund and
hence shares the rise and fall in the value of the fund. A mutual fund may
invest in stocks, cash, bonds or a combination of these.
9
Mutual funds are considered as one of the best available investment options
as compare to others alternatives. They are very cost efficient and also easy
to invest in. The biggest advantage of mutual funds is they provide
diversification, by reducing risk & maximizing returns.
10
India is ranked one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Despite
this huge progression in the industry, there still lies huge potential and room
for growth. India has a saving rate of more than 35% of GDP, with 80% of the
population who save. These savings could be channelized in the mutual funds
sector as it offers a wide investment option. In addition, focusing on the
rapidly growing tier II and tier III cities within India will provide a huge scope
for this sector. Further tapping rural markets in India will benefit mutual fund
companies from the growth in agriculture and allied sectors. With subsequent
easing of regulations, it is estimated that the mutual fund industry will grow at
a rate of 30% - 35% in the next 3 to 5 years and reach US 300 billion by 2015.

Mutual Fund A Globally Proven Investment

11
Worldwide, the Mutual Fund has a long and successful history. The
popularity of the Mutual Fund has increased manifold. In developed financial

markets, like the United States, Mutual Funds have almost overtaken bank
deposits and total assets of insurance funds.
12
Internationally, on-line investing continues its meteoric rise. Many have
debated about the success of e-commerce and its breakthroughs, but it is true
that this aspect of technology could and will change the way financial sectors
function. However advanced countries like US, mutual funds buy-sell
transactions have already begun on the net, while in India the net is used as a
source of information. Such changes could facilitate easy access, lower
intermediation costs and better services for all.
Since the creation of the first mutual fund in 1929, the mutual fund industry
has enjoyed the fastest growth rate of the financial investment industry. In
1949, all mutual fund companies combined controlled $2 billion; fund assets
soared to $6.5 trillion at the outset of 2003, and more than $12 trillion in 2007,
making the funds Americas largest financial investment vehicles.
13
The mutual fund industry consists of investment companies that sell shares
in one or more portfolios of financial assets. Fund managers determine the

composition of the portfolio, which may include stocks, bonds, government
securities, shares in precious metals, and other financial assets. As open-end
funds, they are sold publicly, and their shares must be redeemed by the
investment company on request of the shareholder.
Mutual funds are categorized by their general investment objectives. Equity
funds consist of common stocks and are organized to achieve capital growth.
Bond funds are composed of corporate, U.S. government or municipal bonds
and emphasize regular income.

14
Income funds have the same objective as bond funds but include
Government National Mortgage Association securities, government securities,

and common and preferred stocks as well as bonds. Money market mutual
funds consist of short-term instruments, such as U.S. government securities,
bank certificates of deposit and commercial paper.
15
The mutual fund industry is regulated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) and by state regulations and securities laws. The first
mutual fund was developed on March 21, 1924, when three Boston securities
executives pooled their money to establish the Massachusetts Investors
Trust. In just one year, the mutual fund grew from $50,000 to $392,000 in
assets. Investors welcomed the innovation and invested in this new vehicle
heavily; however, the stock market crash of 1929 slowed its growth. To instill
investors with confidence, the U.S. Congress passed the Securities Act of
1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Investment Company Act
of 1940, which set standards with which mutual funds must comply.
16
By the end of the 1960s, there were approximately 270 funds with $48
billion in assets. One of the largest contributors to the mutual funds growth
was the provision added to the Internal Revenue Code in 1975 that allowed
individuals already in a corporate pension fund to contribute up to $2,000 per
year to an individual retirement account (IRA). Mutual funds became popular
in employer sponsored 401(k) retirement plans, IRAs, and Roth IRAs. In
1976, John Bogle founded the first retail index fund (a passively managed
fund that tries to mirror the performance of a specific index, such as the S&P
500), named First Index Investment Trust. Later renamed Vanguard 500
Index Fund, it revolutionized investing, becoming one of the worlds largest
mutual funds, with more than $115 billion in assets. Mutual fund assets first
reached the trillion dollar mark in January, 1990. By the end of 1990, the
industry had also posted new records, both in the number of funds (3,108)
and in the number of individual accounts (62.6 million). By 1996, total mutual
fund assets reached $3 trillion. The industry blossomed in the dawn of the

new millennium, and in 2007, there were 8,015 mutual funds, with a combined
worth of $12.4 trillion.
1.3 MUTUAL FUND INDUSTRY IN INDIAN MARKET

17
The Indian mutual funds industry is witnessing a rapid growth as a result of
infrastructural development, increase in personal financial assets, and rise in

foreign participation. With the growing risk appetite, rising income, and
increasing awareness, mutual funds in India are becoming a preferred
investment option compared to other investment vehicles like Fixed Deposits
(FDs) and postal savings that are considered safe but give comparatively low
returns, according to Indian Mutual Fund Industry.

Size of industry
The size of Indian Mutual Fund Industry has grown and now has the boast of
having dominance in this industry. In April 2008 the total Asset Under
Management popularly known as AUM has increased from Rs.1, 01, 565
crores in January 2000 to Rs.5, 67, 601.98 crores
According to the Association of Mutual Funds in India, the growth of mutual
fund industry has been exceptional. This industry has indeed come a very
long way with only 34 players in the market and more than 480 schemes.
Domestic and Export Share
Despite the growth of Mutual Fund Industry, penetration levels in India are low
as compared to other global economies. Assets under management as a
percentage of GDP is less than 5% in India as compared to 70% in the US,
67% in France and 37% in Brazil.
The industry has grown in size and manages total assets of more than
$30351 million. Of the various sectors, the private sector accounts for nearly
91% of the resources mobilized showing their overwhelming dominance in the
market. Individuals constitute 98.04% of the total number of investors and
contribute US $12062 million, which is 55.16% of the net assets under
management.
19
Employment opportunities
Indian Mutual Fund Industry is playing an active role in the capital market
today and is one of the fastest growing industries in the country. The industry
offers multiple career options to the youths irrespective of their academic
subjects. Graduates from arts, science and commerce can easily find a job in
this promising and growing sector. Due to the participation of private players
and many financial institutions into the mutual funds markets, they have
further widened the scope of employment in this sector. Career in Mutual

funds require the minimum qualification of a certification (Advisor Module) and

a registration number from the Associations of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI).
SEBI has made mandatory for any entity or person engaged in marketing and
selling of mutual fund products to pass AMFI certification test (Advisors
Module) and obtain registration number from. This certification remains valid
for 5 years from the date of the test.

model to be in sync with the new norms put in place by the capital
market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India, or SEBI.
India has 36 asset management companies (AMCs) and at least some

of them are planning to start their own distribution business instead of
selling funds through third-party distributors. Among other things, they
plan to cut distributors commission by 25-30 basis points (bps) and
shift their focus from frequent churning of funds to managing money for
the longer term. One basis point is one-hundredth of a percentage
point.
Out of the 32 Crore employed Indians, only 2.5% are investors. Many
investors, particularly youth mostly having the dispensable income opt
for mutual funds to enter into the securities market indirectly. Hence,
potential investors in mutual funds need evaluation not only by financial
institutions but also by academicians so that they can make a right

choice in their investment decisions.

.
1.4 GROWTH OF MUTUAL FUND INDUSTRY

21
The mutual fund industry in India started in 1963 with the formation of Unit
Trust of India, at the initiative of the Government of India and Reserve Bank of
India. The history of mutual funds in India can be broadly divided into four
distinct phases.
22
Phase I - Establishment and Growth of Unit Trust of
India 1964-87
Unit Trust of India (UTI) was established on 1963 by an Act of Parliament. It
was set up by the Reserve Bank of India and functioned under the Regulatory
and administrative control of the Reserve Bank of India. In 1978 UTI was delinked from the RBI and the Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI) took
over the regulatory and administrative control in place of RBI. The first
scheme launched by UTI was Unit Scheme 1964. At the end of 1988 UTI had
Rs. 6,700 crores of assets under management.
Phase II Entry of Public Sector Funds
1987-93
1987 marked the entry of non- UTI, public sector mutual funds set up by
public sector banks and Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and General
Insurance Corporation of India (GIC). SBI Mutual Fund was the first non- UTI
Mutual Fund in June 1987 followed by Can bank 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
established its mutual fund in June 1989 while GIC had set up its mutual fund
21
22
http://www.amfiindia.com/research-information/mf-history
http://finance.indiamart.com/india_business_information/mutual_funds_industry.html
22
in December 1990. At the end of 1993, the mutual fund industry had assets
under management of Rs. 47,004 crores.
Phase III Entry of Private Sector Funds
1993-96
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.
Phase IV - Growth and SEBI Regulation
1996-04
The number of mutual fund houses went on increasing, with many foreign
mutual funds setting up funds in India and also the industry has witnessed
several mergers and acquisitions. As at the end of January 2003, there were
33 mutual funds with total assets of Rs. 1,21,805 crores. The Unit Trust of
India with Rs. 44,541 crores of assets under management was way ahead of
other mutual funds.
In February 2003, the UTI Act was repealed and UTI was stripped of its
Special legal status as a trust formed by an Act of Parliament. The primary
objective behind this was to bring all mutal fund players on the same level.
UTI was re-organized into two parts: 1. The Specified Undertaking, 2. The UTI
Mutual Fund. UTI Mutual Fund is still the largest player in the industry. In
1999, there was a significant growth in mobilization of funds from investors
and assets under management which is supported by the following data:

Mutual Fund. Simultaneously, more international mutual fund players have
entered India like Fidelity, Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund etc. There were
29 funds as at the end of March 2006. This is a continuing phase of growth of
the industry through consolidation and entry of new international and private
sector players.

PRODUCT PROFILE
3.1 TYPES OF MUTUAL FUND
30
25
A Mutual Fund may float several schemes which may be classified on the
basis of its structure, its investment objectives and other objectives.
Type of Mutual Fund
According to Structure
According to
Investment Objective
According to Other
Objective
A) MUTUAL FUND SCHEMES BY STRUCTURE

Open-Ended Funds: Open-Ended fund scheme is open for subscription all
through year. An investor can buy or sell the units at "NAV" (Net Asset Value)
related price at any time.
Close-Ended Funds: A Close-Ended fund is open for subscription only
during a specified period, generally at the time of initial public issue. The
Close-Ended fund scheme is listed on the some stock exchanges where an
investor can buy or sell the units of this type of scheme.
Interval Funds: Interval Funds combines both the features of Open-Ended
funds and Close-Ended funds.
B) MUTUAL FUND SCHEMES BY INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

31
26
Growth Funds: The objective of Growth Fund scheme is to provide capital
appreciation over the medium to long term. This type of scheme is an ideal
scheme for the investors seeking capital appreciation for a long period.
Income Funds: The Income Fund schemes objective is to provide regular
and steady income to investors.
Balanced Funds: The objective of Balanced Fund schemes is to provide both
growth and regular income to investors.
Money Market Funds: The objectives of Money market funds are to provide
easy liquidity, regular income and preservation of income.
C) OTHER FUNDS
27
Tax Saving Schemes: The objective of Tax Saving schemes is to offer tax
rebates to the investors under specific provisions of the Indian Income Tax
Laws. Investments made under some schemes are allowed as deduction u/s
88 of the Income Tax Act.
Industry specific Schemes: Industry specific schemes invest only in the
industries specified in the offer document of the schemes.
Sectorial Schemes: The scheme invest particularly in a specified industries
or initial public offering.
Index schemes: Such schemes links with the performance of BSE sensex or
NSE.
Loan Funds: Loan Funds charges a commission each time when you buy or
sale units in the fund.

3.2 BENEFITS OF MUTUAL FUNDS

28
Mutual Funds offer several benefits to an investor such as potential return,
liquidity, transparency, income growth, good post tax return and reasonable
safety. There are number of options available for an investor offered by a
mutual fund.
Before investing in a Mutual Fund an investor must identify his needs and
preferences. While selecting a Mutual Fund's schemes he should consider
the effect of inflation rate, diversification of investment, the time period of
investment and the risk factors. There are various types of risk factors as:
Market Risk
Credit Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Inflation Risk
Political Environment
The major benefits are good post-tax returns and reasonable safety,
the other benefits in investing in Mutual Funds are

Professional
Management:
Mutual
Funds
employ
the
services
of
experienced and skilled professionals and dedicated investment research

team. The whole team analyses the performance and balance sheet of
companies and selects them to achieve the objectives of the scheme.
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.
Diversification: Mutual Funds invest in a number of companies across a
wide cross section of industries and sectors.
Low Cost: Investment in Mutual Funds is a less expensive way in
comparison to a direct investment in capital market.
28
http://southerncapital.in/benefits_mutualfunds.php
33
Liquidity: The investor can get the money promptly at the net asset value
related prices from the Mutual Funds open-ended schemes. In close-ended
schemes, the units can be sold on a stock exchange at the prevailing market
price.
Transparency: Mutual Funds have to disclose their holdings, investment
pattern and the necessary information before all investors under a regulation
framework.
Flexibility: Investment in Mutual Funds offers a lot of flexibility with features
of schemes such as regular investment plan, regular withdrawal plans and
dividend reinvestment plans enabling systematic investment or withdrawal of
funds.
Affordability: Small investors with low investment fund are unable to highgrade or blue chip stocks. An investor through Mutual Funds can be benefited
from a portfolio including of high priced stock.
Well regulated: All Mutual Funds are registered with SEBI, and SEBI acts a
watchdog, so the Mutual Funds are well regulated.
3.3 DISADVANTAGES OF MUTUAL FUND

29
Cost: Mutual funds provide investors with professional management, but it
comes at a cost. Funds will typically have a range of different fees that reduce
the overall payout. In mutual funds, the fees are classified into two categories:
shareholder fees and annual operating fees.
30
Misleading Advertisements: The misleading advertisements of different
funds can guide investors down the wrong path. Some funds may be
incorrectly labelled as growth funds, while others are classified as small cap

34
or income funds. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires

that funds have at least 80% of assets in the particular type of investment
implied in their names.
3.4 DIFFERENT PLANS THAT MUTUAL FUND OFFER
31
Growth Plan and Dividend Plan
A growth plan is a plan under a scheme wherein the returns from investments
are reinvested and very few income distributions, if any, are made. The
investor thus only realizes capital appreciation on the investment. This plan
appeals to investors in the high income bracket. Under the dividend plan,
income is distributed from time to time. This plan is ideal to those investors
requiring regular income.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Dividend plans of schemes carry an additional option for reinvestment of
income distribution. This is referred to as the dividend reinvestment plan.
Under this plan, dividends declared by a fund are reinvested on behalf of the
investor, thus increasing the number of units held by the investors.
Automatic Investment Plan
Under the Automatic Investment Plan (AIP) also called Systematic Investment
Plan (SIP), the investor is given the option for investing in a specified
frequency of months in a specified scheme of the Mutual Fund for a constant
sum of investment. AIP allows the investors to plan their savings through a
structured regular monthly savings program.
Automatic Withdrawal Plan
Under the Automatic Withdrawal Plan (AWP) also called Systematic
Withdrawal Plan(SWP), a facility is provided to the investor to withdraw a pre31

35
determined amount from his fund at a pre-determined interval.
3.5 FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE THE PERFORMANCE OF

MUTUAL FUND
32
The performances of Mutual funds are influenced by the performance of the
stock market as well as the economy as a whole. Equity Funds are influenced
to a large extent by the stock market. The stock market in turn is influenced by
the performance of the companies as well as the economy as a whole. The
performance of the sector funds depends to a large extent on the companies
within that sector. Bond-funds are influenced by interest rates and credit
quality. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall, and vice versa. Similarly, bond
funds with higher credit ratings are less influenced by changes in the
economy.
33
Expense Ratio
Mutual funds charge fees, sometimes high fees. A mutual fund's EXPENSE
RATIO is the most important fee to understand. And is made up of the
following: The investment advisory fee or management fee is the money used
to pay the manager(s) of the mutual fund. This is usually taken annually as a
percentage of the fund's assets.
Administrative costs are the costs of record keeping, mailings, maintaining a
customer service line, etc. These are all necessary costs, though they vary in
size from fund to fund. Distribution fee: This fee is spent on marketing,
advertising and distribution services.
Only one third of all equity, mutual funds provided returns greater than the
S&P 500, and that was before fees and expenses which range from 0.5% to
2.0% and 2.0%, respectively. After adjustments were made for the riskiness of
a fund, mutual funds were reported as being able to perform up to the market
32
33
http://www.slideshare.net/navnit1188/performance-evaluation-of-mutual-funds-4912211
http://financialplan.about.com/od/investing/a/MutualFundFees.htm
36
on gross returns, but were underperforming, as compared to the market, after

the various expenses were factored in. Many analysts suggested that the
average 1.3% expense ratio of mutual funds and the need for the retainment
of cash as the culprits of such underperformance.
34
Risk
Risk can be a great ally when trying to estimate the reward potential of a stock
investment. The greater the stock volatility, or risk, the greater also is the
reward. There are several new risk measurements that give guidance for
selecting mutual stocks that provide higher returns for lower risk.
35
Time Horizon
The time horizon of an individual will also influence the performance

measures he/she will look at more closely. If you are investing for less than
four years, you need a fund with consistent performance, so all your money
will be there when you need it. You also do not have time to earn back a large
commission charge on the front end.
Conversely, if you plan to invest your money for 30 years, neither consistency
nor load is very important: you have plenty of time for the market to recover.
With a long-term horizon, your biggest enemies are poor performance and
high annual expenses, both of which can erode that all-important
compounding.

CHAPTER 4
INTRODUCTION OF
THE STUDY
4.1 LITERATURE REVIEW
39
36
Performance evaluation of mutual funds is one of the preferred areas of
research where a good amount of study has been carried out. The area of
research provides diverse views of the same.
For instance one paper evaluated the performance of Indian Mutual Fund
Schemes in a bear market using relative performance index, risk-return
analysis, Treynors ratio, Sharpes ratio, Jensens measure, Famas measure.
The study finds that Medium Term Debt Funds were the best performing
funds during the bear period of September 98-April 2002 and 58 of 269 open
ended mutual funds provided better returns than the overall market returns.
37
Another paper used Return Based Style Analysis (RBSA) to evaluate equity
mutual funds in India using quadratic optimization of an asset class factor

model proposed by William Sharpe and analysis of the relative performance
of the funds with respect to their style benchmarks. Their study found that the
mutual funds generated positive monthly returns on the average, during the
study period of January 2000 through June 2005. The ELSS funds lagged the
Growth funds or all funds taken together, with respect to returns generated.
The mean returns of the growth funds or all funds were not only positive but
also significant. The ELSS funds also demonstrated marginally higher
volatility (standard deviation) than the Growth funds.
One study identified differences in characteristics of public-sector sponsored
& private-sector sponsored mutual funds find the extent of diversification in
the portfolio of securities of public-sector sponsored and private-sector
sponsored mutual funds and compare the performance of public-sector
sponsored and private-sector sponsored mutual funds using traditional

40
investment measures.
38
They primarily use Jensens alpha, Sharpe information ratio, excess
standard deviation adjusted return (ESDAR) and find out that portfolio risk
characteristics measured through private-sector Indian sponsored mutual
funds seems to have outperformed both Public- sector sponsored and
Private-sector foreign sponsored mutual funds and the general linear model of
analysis of covariance establishes differences in performance among the
three classes of mutual funds in terms of portfolio diversification.
Another paper examined the performance of equity and bond mutual funds
that invested primarily in the emerging markets using Treynors ratio,
Sharpes ratio, Jensens measure. With this research they found that on an
average the U.S. stock market outperformed emerging equity markets but the
emerging market bonds outperformed U.S. bonds. They also found that
overall emerging market stock funds under-performed the respective MSCI
indexes. These were evident by their lower return, higher risk, and thus lower
Sharpe ratios.
39
One more paper evaluated whether or not the selected mutual funds were
able to outperform the market on the average over the studied time period. In
addition to that by examining the strength of interrelationships of values of
PCMs for successive time periods , the study also tried to infer about the
extent to which the future values of fund performance were related to its past
by using single index model. The study revealed that there were positive
signals of information asymmetry in the market with mutual fund managers
having superior information about the returns of stocks as a whole. PCM also
indicated that on an average mutual funds provided excess (above-average)
return, but only when unit of time period was longer (1 qtr or 4 qtr). Therefore,
they concluded that for assessing the true performance of a particular mutual
fund, a longer time horizon is better.

41
40
Another study aimed at analyzing performance of select open-ended equity
mutual fund using Sharpe Ratio, Hypothesis testing and return based on
yield. The most important finding of the study had been that only four Growth
plans and one Dividend plan (5 out of the 42 plans studied) could generate
higher returns than that of the market which is contrary to the general opinion
prevailing in the Indian mutual fund market.
41
Even the Sharpe ratios of Growth plans and the corresponding Dividend
plans stand testimony to the relatively better performance of Growth plans.

The statistical tests in terms of F-test and t-Test further corroborate the
significant performance differences between the Growth plans and Dividend
plans.
A similar study examined the empirical properties of performance measures
for mutual funds using Simulation procedures combined with random and
random-stratified samples of NYSE and AMEX securities and other
performance measurement tools employed are Sharpe measure, Jensen
alpha, Treynor measure, appraisal ratio, and Fama-French three-factor model
alpha. The study revealed that standard mutual fund performance was
unreliable and could result in false inferences. In particular, it was easy to
detect abnormal performance and market-timing ability when none exists. The
results also showed that the range of measured performance was quite large
even when true performance was ordinary. This provided a benchmark to
gauge mutual fund performance. Comparisons of their numerical results with
those reported in actual mutual fund studies raised the possibility that
reported results were due to misspecification, rather than abnormal
performance. Finally, the results indicated that procedures based on the
Fama-French 3-factor model were somewhat better than CAPM based
measures.
42
Another paper, analyzed the Indian Mutual Fund Industry pricing mechanism
with empirical studies on its valuation. It also analyzed data at both the fund40

42
manager and fund-investor levels. It stated that mispricing of the Mutual funds
could be evaluated by comparing the return on market and return on stock.
During the pricing period, if the return on stock is negative, then it indicates
overpricing and if are positive indicates under pricing. Relative performance
measurement was used to measure the performance of the MF with SENSEX
and it used Standard Deviation, Correlation analysis, Co-efficient of
Determination and Null Hypothesis. This study revealed that standard
deviations of the 3-month returns were significant with the increase in the
period.
4.2
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
43
Day by day as business is getting more competitive and so the
43
http://www.scribd.com/doc/84509919/Mutual-Funds
43
management is achieving its importance in every field to increase the

efficiency and to cut down the cost of production. The present day giant
organization is a specialized or expert in all spheres of management. The
importance of specialist from each has emerged, these specialist are often
called as professionals.
44
During last few years or so, financial management which was not
considered so much has now been recognize as an important area. This

change has created importance for the study of financial management which
has lead to various objectives-covered in this research methodology. The
methodology of the project reveals the step-by-step procedure done to carry
out the project study.
45
Mutual Fund is a topic which is of enormous interest not only to researchers
all over the world, but also to investors. Mutual funds as a medium-to-long
term investment option are preferred as a suitable investment option by
investors. However, with several market entrants the question is the choice of
mutual fund. The study focuses on this problem of mutual fund selection by
investors. Though the investment objectives define investors preference
among fund types (balanced, growth, dividend etc.) the choice of fund based
on a sponsors reputation remains to be probed. We focus on analyzing the
performance of mutual funds by using three models i.e. Sharpe, Treyner and
Jensen.

PROBLEM STATEMENT AND IMPORTANCE OF THE

STUDY

http://www.ukessays.co.uk/essays/finance/history-of-mutual-funds.php
44
46
There are so many investment avenues. So that investors does not know
which avenues provides best return. As per the financial rule of Do not put all
the eggs in one basket investors portfolio are most diversified. So that risk
should be minimized. If the person do not have knowledge of how to get
maximum return with minimum risk or vice-versa then they should be invest in
mutual fund. There are so many funds and schemes are available in mutual
fund market. Investors know that how much risk they can take. Based on that
they have to choose schemes. Problem is that chosen scheme provides the
best return as compare to the market and other schemes. For that certain
model available Sharpes model, Treynors model and Jensons model. These
models are suggested that which schemes provide best return.
47
Importance of the study is that a funds performance can be judged with
respects to investors expectation. Investors have to define his expectations in

relation to certain indicators on what is possible to achieve or moderate this
with comparable investment alternatives available in the market. These
indicators of performance can acts against investors fund performance. It is
very important to select the right benchmark to evaluate a funds performance.
So the problem arises that in which scheme they should invest according to
their preferences.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
http://www.evelexa.com/resources/EGBS4_Kolchinsky.pdf
45
The primary object of the present project is to know about which mutual funds
gave highest performance in a short-term period.
To know about types of mutual funds in detail.
To know, which schemes gives highest return within one-year.
To find the extent of diversification in the portfolio of securities of

sponsored mutual funds.
To compare the performance of sponsored mutual funds using

traditional investment measures.
In general, Mutual Funds are not considered to be too risky because they
invest in dozens or even hundreds of stocks. But Mutual Funds being marketlinked are prime candidates for stock market related risks. The four aspects
that you should take into account while analyzing risk in Mutual Fund
investment are volatility of the fund as indicated by the Standard Deviation,
risk-adjusted returns as calculated by the Sharpe Ratio, Beta and Alpha.
Standard Deviation shows the degree of risk taken on by the fund, Sharpe
Ratio shows the return generated by the fund per unit of risk taken. Beta
shows how much a fund moves when compared to an appropriate index.
Alpha represents the difference between a Mutual Fund's actual performance
and the performance that would be expected based on the level of risk taken
by the manager.
A Fund with low risk is the one with the lowest Standard Deviation, the
highest Sharpe Ratio within its peer group, Beta closer to one and Alpha
above one. It is advisable for you to evaluate these measures on a historical
basis so as to identify the most consistent performers.

CHAPTER 5
RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY
5.1 RESEARCH DESIGN
47
Research Design is the roadmap for carrying out the research activity in the
project. In our project of Performance Evaluation of Mutual Fund we have
carried out the research of which mutual fund is providing higher return by
comparing the returns of different mutual funds and we have also compared
whether the mutual fund can beat the market return or not.
For this research activity
We have selected 10 mutual funds from Indian market. All funds are in
equity growth category.
Data has been collected from money control, value research online,
and mutual fund India web sites.
Funds selected are mostly preferable by investors.
Treasury bill rate of return is selected as risk free return, which is 8.5%
p.a.
Collected NAV of funds of each quarter for the year 2013 and define
return.
Defined standard deviation on the basis of Quarterly return.
Found out average return.
Defined beta of funds and market, S&P CNX Nifty index return is taken
as market return.
Found out Treynor, Sharpe and Jensen ratio and performance.
Finally we have given rank to mutual funds according to each ratio.
5.2 SOURCES OF DATA
48
Here in this research project we have used Secondary source of data as the
return for different mutual funds and market cannot be established by
ourselves.
5.3 DATA COLLECTION METHOD
Here in this research project we have used data which were published on the
websites of Bombay stock exchange, Money control, value research online,
National stock exchange and mutual fund India.
5.4 POPULATION
Population is a collection of items of interest in research. The population
represents a group that you wish to generalize your research to.
Here in this research project we have taken the population of 46 mutual fund
house in India. Out of 46 we have selected 6 fund houses on the asset under
management basis. 10 Funds across 6 fund houses have been selected. This
population is based on the type of mutual fund i.e. Equity Growth mutual
funds
There are various schemes available in the mutual fund like debt, equity,
balanced, guilt etc. But out of these schemes we have selected Equity growth
scheme as a population.
5.5 SAMPLING METHOD
The random sample

49
Convenient sample is one of the main types of non probability sampling

method. A convenience sample is made up of people who are easy to reach.
Consider the following example. A pollster interviews shoppers at a local mall.
If the mall was chosen because it was a convenient site from which to solicit
survey participants and/or because it was close to the pollster's home or
business, this would be a convenience sample.
Here in this research project we have used convenient sample method for
sampling. We have taken the Sample of 10 Equity Growth mutual funds
on the basis of their highest annual average return in the year 2013.

CHAPTER 6
DATA ANALYSIS AND
INTERPRETATION
6.1 ANALYSIS OF MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE
51
Mutual
fund
performance
can
be
analyzed
through
performance
measurement ratios which are use in portfolio analysis. We here are using
Treynor, Sharpe, and Jensen ratio to evaluate mutual funds and rank
accordingly. Composite portfolio performance measures have the flexibility of
combining risk and return performance into a single value. The most
commonly used composite measures are: Treynor, Sharpe and Jensen
measures. While Treynor measures only the systematic risk summarized by
beta, Sharpe concentrates on total risk of the mutual fund.
TREYNERS PERFORMANCE INDEX
Treynor (1965) was the first researcher developing a composite measure of
portfolio performance. He measures portfolio risk with beta, and calculates
portfolios market risk premium relative to its beta:
Where:
Ti = Treynors Performance Index
Rp = Portfolios actual return during a specified time period
Rf = Risk-free rate of return during the same period
p = beta of the portfolio
Whenever Rp> Rf and p > 0 a larger T value means a better portfolio for all
investors Regardless of their individual risk preferences. In two cases we may
have a negative T value: when Rp < Rf or when p < 0. If T is negative
because Rp < Rf we judge the portfolio performance as very poor. However, if
the negativity of T comes from a negative beta, funds performance is

superb. Finally when Rp- Rf, and p are both negative, T will be positive.
52
Demonstration of Comparative Treynor Measures

Assume we have the following data for three mutual funds; ZBY, with their
respective annual rate of return and systematic risk, Beta. The risk free rate
is 8 %. The systematic risk for M (market) is 1.0 and the rate of return for M
is 14%.

INTERPRETATION
In our analysis we have given ranks on the basis of higher Treyners index.
Higher Treyners index gets 1st rank. Treyners performance index measures
(Beta) systematic risk of portfolio. This model does not consider total risk
(systematic risk + unsystematic risk).
In our analysis we have found out that SBI FMCG fund growth has
lower beta i.e. 0.21 as compared to other nine funds. Same way UTI
transportation & logistic has higher beta i.e. 3.17.
This analysis represents that SBI FMCG fund growth gets higher Treyners
performance index and it stands on eighth rank. Same way UTI transportation
& logistic growth gets lower Treyners performance index and it stands on
9th rank.

This analysis also represents that though ICICI prudential technology Reg
fund growth has higher return i.e. 62.55 % as compared to other nine funds, it
stands on third rank as it is having higher beta i.e. 0.35.
Thus at last we want to conclude that according to Treyners Performance
Index, it is not necessary that fund with higher return is always well performing
fund and stands on first rank because we also have to consider risk
associated with that fund.
SHARPES PERFORMANCE INDEX
Sharpe (1966) developed a composite index which is very similar to the
Treynor measure, the only difference being the use of standard deviation,
instead of beta, to measure the portfolio risk, in other words except it uses the
total risk of the portfolio rather than just the systematic risk.
Where:
Si = Sharpe performance index
= Portfolio standard deviation
Sharpe index, evaluates funds performance based on both rate of return and
diversification. For a completely diversified portfolio Treynor and Sharpe
indices would give identical rankings.
Demonstration of Comparative Sharpe Measures

Assume we have the following data for three portfolios; BOP, with their
respective annual rate of return and standard deviation of their return.
57
The risk free rate is 8 %. The standard deviation for M (market) is 0.20
and the rate of return for M is 14%.
Portfolio

0.13
0.18
0.17
0.22
0.16
0.23
0.14
0.20
Table 6.6
We can calculate the S values for each portfolio.
B
(0.13-0.08) / 0.18
= 0.278
(0.17-0.08) / 0.22
= 0.409
(0.16-0.08) / 0.23
= 0.348
(0.14-0.08) / 0.20
= 0.30
Table 6.7
Thus, portfolio O did the best, and B failed to beat the market.
The trouble with both Sharpe and Treynor techniques for evaluating "riskadjusted" returns is that they equate risk with short-term volatility.
Therefore these measures may not be applicable in evaluating the
relative merits of long-term investments

INTERPRETATION
In our analysis we have given ranks on the basis of higher Sharpes index.
st
Higher Sharpes index gets 1 rank. Sharpes performance index measures

standard deviation of portfolio. This model considers total risk i.e. both
systematic risk and unsystematic risk.
In our analysis we have found out that Reliance Pharma fund growth has a
return of 9.29 % and on the basis of return it stands on seventh rank but its
standard deviation is 2.84 which is lower as compared to other nine funds.
This thing indicates that ICICI prudential export and other service Reg Fund
stands on first rank because it is providing good return with moderate risk.
60
We have analyzed that SBI FMCG Fund growth plan also has lower
standard deviation and then also it stands on last rank according to Sharpes
performance index. The reason behind this is that this fund is providing lower
return as compared to other nine funds. This thing indicates that SBI FMCG
Fund stands on last rank because it is providing lower return with lower risk.
Thus at last we want to conclude that according to Sharpes Performance
Index, it is not necessary that fund with higher return is always well performing
fund and stands on first rank because we also have to consider risk
associated with that fund. Further return of fund should also be good enough;
it should not be so lower.
JENSENS ALPHA
Jensen (1968), on the other hand, writes the following formula in terms of
realized rates of return, assuming that CAPM is empirically valid.
Jensen uses as his performance measure. A superior portfolio manager

would have a significant positive value because of the consistent positive
residuals. Inferior managers, on the other hand, would have significant
negative . Average portfolio managers having no forecasting ability but, still,
cannot be considered inferior would earn as much as one could expect on the
basis of the CAPM.
Jensen performance criterion, like the Treynor measure, does not evaluate
the ability of portfolio managers to diversify, since the risk premiums are
calculated in terms of .
If the value is positive, and then the portfolio is earning excess returns. In
other words, a positive value for Jensen's alpha means a fund manager has
61
beat the market with his or her stock picking skills.

INTERPRETATION
In our analysis we have given ranks on the basis of higher Jensens index.
Higher Jensens index gets 1
st
rank. Jensens performance index measures
alpha of portfolio. This model indicates that higher the value of alpha, higher is
the ability of a fund manager to select good fund.
We have analyzed that alpha of ICICI prudential technology Reg growth is
very high i.e. 62.55 % as compared to other nine funds and it stands on first
rank. This positive value of alpha indicates that fund manager is able to select
ICICI prudential technology Reg fund as a good fund.
We have also analyzed that alpha of SBI FMCG Fund is lower. This may be
due to its lower return. Thus though the risk associated with SBI FMCG Fund
is lower, its alpha value is lower because of its lower return.
Finally we want to conclude that according to Jensenss alpha, the value of
64
alpha not only depends on the return of the fund but also on the risk
associated with that fund. Value of alpha should be always positive.

ANALYSIS
65
The fact that Sharpe uses Standard deviation as a measurement of risk

which is the total risk and Treynor uses Beta or systematic risk, but yet it is
claimed that, if we are examining a well-diversified portfolio, the rankings
should be similar for all three methods. Due to this interesting theory we
have decided to analyze the performance of the portfolios and they will be
ranked identically according to all three; Sharpes, Treynors and Jensens
performance measurement. ICICI prudential technology Reg fund growth
st
get 1 rank from all three method.

From this analysis we have found out similarity in Sharpe and Jensens
model because more schemes are on similar positions in these two
models. Another reason behind this is that Sharpe measures total risk and
Jensen measures the predictive ability of manager, where manager always
consider total risk while selecting the security. Due to this reason both
models indicate similar positions for more schemes.
66
CHAPTER 7
RESULT AND
FINDING
The study done on the performance evaluation of Indian mutual funds was
fruitful as all the objectives of the study were successfully achieved. The
67
following are the findings from this study.
The schemes selected for the study gave returns in coordination with
the markets. When there was boom in the stock market the funds gave
positive returns a little more than what the market had given. During
the recessionary phase the markets declined steadily and so did the
fund returns. Overall the fund returns and the market returns, for the
period of 1 year taken into consideration for this study.
Mostly all the mutual fund schemes are able to beat the market. That
means the schemes are well diversified.
From the entire 10 schemes best scheme is ICICI prudential

technology Reg fund growth because in all the two models it stands on
st
1 rank and also it provides good return.
From this analysis we have found out similarity in Sharpe and Jensens model
because more schemes are on similar positions in these two models. Another
reason behind this is that Sharpe measures total risk and Jensen measures
the predictive ability of manager, where manager always consider total risk
while selecting the security. Due to this reason both models indicate similar
positions for more schemes.
68
CHAPTER 8
LIMITATION OF THE
STUDY
69
We have selected 6 fund houses out of 46 fund houses due to time

constrains. We have not studied all types of mutual fund of 46 fund
houses. We have studied only equity growth fund. We also have not
studied all schemes of 6 mutual fund houses. These schemes we have
selected randomly.
Since the funds selected for this study were open ended equity based
growth mutual funds the fund composition kept on changing over the time
period, so it became difficult to understand the fund properties as historical
data pertaining to the fund structure was not available.
Because of unavailability of historical data and fund composition it was

difficult to ascertain the performance of the fund properties and a simple
evaluation was done against the market performance.
70
CHAPTER 9
CONCLUSION AND
SUGGESTON
Mutual funds are one of the most highly growing products in financial services
market. Mutual funds are suitable for all types of investors from risk adverse
to risk bearer. Mutual funds have many options of return, risk free return,
71
constant return, market associated returned. Mutual funds are suitable to all
age of investors, businessmen, salary person, etc. Investors need not to be
expert in equity market; mutual funds can satisfy their need. Fund managers
are expert in this area and invest fund in well diversified portfolio, high return
with low risk is possible inn mutual fund.
In todays world, investors are showing more trust in mutual fund than any
other financial product. There is no need of a financial consultant, if you have
good knowledge of mutual funds and their type to invest.
Mutual fund is subject to market risk, despite of that it have low risk than stock
market. This is proved in performance evaluation section of this report.
Performance evaluation measurement ratios i.e. Treynors, Sharpes and
Jensens are used by fund managers to take decision of investment and to
diversify portfolio.
Mutual Fund is subject to market risk, analyzing particular fund before

investing.
Study historical return of funds, risk measurement ratios to evaluate

fund.
There should be similarity in your and funds objective.
For high return invest in diversified funds, for tax saving invest in ELSS
equity funds, for moderate risk and return invest in balance funds, for
assure return invest in debt and liquid funds.
As per our opinion, investor should invest around 30% in mutual fund.

2.1 CALCULATION OF BETA
Beta is the measure of volatility of a stock, fund, portfolio, etc with respect
to the market. If the beta is positive then the fund returns are directly
proportional to the market returns and if the beta is negative then the fund
returns are inversely proportional to the market.
Formula:
Where,
a = fund beta
Cov (ra,rp) = covariance of the returns of the fund and the
market, Var rp = variance of the market returns.

2.1 CALCULATION OF STANDARD DEVIATION

81
Beta
0.11
Standard Deviation is a tool which measures the variability of data the set. It is
calculated to measure the riskiness of a fund, stock or portfolio. Higher the
standard deviation means higher the risk and higher the returns of the asset and a
low standard deviation mans that the asset is less risky and will generate less
returns.
The standard deviation of the fund returns are calculated with the following formula:
Where,
S = Standard Deviation
N = number of quarters in the period
X = mean of the periods return

Xi = return of the corresponding week.
