PREFACE
Many individuals own mutual funds today. Indeed, the mutual fund industry which reached $3.64 trillion in assets by 2009,comprises the bulk of many investors financial assets, whether for retirement or taxable savings purposes .To a large extent, mutual funds are the investment vehicle for the majority of house holds in the India. In the introductory chapter, I have consider the role of mutual fund in today’s investing environment, learn just how popular mutual funds have become and consider why investors have chosen to put so much money into funds. Clearly, mutual funds are a major financial asset for numerous investors, and in many ways they play the dominant role in today’s investing world for millions of house holds. I have also told about the basics of mutual funds, defining terms and discussing the mechanics about how funds work. I have also considered other alternatives .I have mainly focused up on the study that which company’s mutual investments are mostly preferable by investors. Today investors are becoming rational & they see all the parameters before investing .I had also reviewed the types of mutual funds, structure of mutual funds and their current scenario.
The over all objective of my study on this project is to know which company provides better investment opportunities from HDFC & ICICI and make the investors to be able to take better decisions .Of course, as every study needs, I’d adopted an objective view of over all situation that examines both sides of the issue situated in HDFC &ICICI.

What is mean by mutual fund?
Mutual funds are pools of money that are managed by an investment company. They offer investors a variety of goals, depending on the fund and its investment charter. Some funds, for example, seek to generate income on a regular basis. Others seek to preserve an investor's money. Still others seek to invest in companies that are growing at a rapid pace. Funds can impose a sales charge, or load, on investors when they buy or sell shares. Many funds these days are no load and impose no sales charge. Mutual funds are investment companies regulated by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Related: open-end fund, closed-end fund.
Concept of mutual funds
A mutual fund is a trust that pools the savings of a no. of investors, who share a common financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciations realized are shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. Thus a mutual fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost.
Historical Aspect
Mutual fund firstly was established in 1822 in the form of Society General De Belguique. It mainly gains the progress in Switzerland & little in franc and Germany in its initial days. The first investment trust “The foreign and colonial govt. trust” Was founded in London in 1868.
Indian Scenario of Mutual Fund
The origin of mutual fund industry in India is with the introduction of the concept of by UTI in the year 1963. Through the growth was slow, but it accelerated from the year 1987 when non-UTI players entered in industry. The mutual fund industry goes through four phases:-
First phase 1964-87 (Establishment of UTI). Second phase 1987-93 (Entry of public sector funds). Third phase 1993-2003 (Entry of a private sector funds). Fourth phase since feb.2003 (Bifurcated of UTI).

FindingsLimitationsRecommendationsConclusion
43
Findings: - In my research I have founded following things:-
Investors have more faith HDFC’s mutual fund. As the age increases investors are much satisfied, see more risk & become
more risk adverse. Old people &Widows prefer lower risk. Investors are not highly satisfied by company rules & employee behavior. Investors think that HDFC provides better returns than ICICI.
Limitations: - There are some limitations of my study, those are as Following:-
Sample limitation : - which sample is taken by me is very small in size to Compare mutual fund of two companies.
Reliability: - The data collected by me is not much reliable because many investors chosen by me have invested in HDFC.
Parameters: - All the parameters have not been taken. Time limitation: - I had the shortage of time because of that I was not able to
do my study in a good manner. Awareness: - Investors chosen for study are not fully aware of all the terms
and conditions related to mutual fund .So, it is very difficult to construct right information from them.
Recommendations / Suggestions: - In my study I have found some limitations. For that I can suggest both companies following suggestions or areas of improvement:-
ICICI bank should try to provide better returns to its investors as compare to HDFC.
Both companies should try to invest in better securities for better profits. Both companies should try to satisfy their customer by better customer service
or by improving customer relationship management. Companies should try to make people initiative towards risk. Investors should be made fully aware of the concept of mutual fund & all the
terms and conditions. It should more emphasize in advertising, as it is the most
Powerful tool to position ant brand in the mindsets of customers
44
Conclusion: - To conclude we can say that mutual fund is a very much profitable tool for investment because of its low cost of acquiring fund, tax benefit, and diversification of profits & reduction of risk. Many investors who have invested in mutual fund have invested with HDFC and them also thinks that it provides better returns than ICICI .There is also an affect of age on mutual fund investors like; old people & widows want regular returns than capital appreciation. Companies can adopt new techniques to attract more & more investors. In my study I was suppose to do comparative analyses the mutual fund of HDFC &ICICI and I had found that people consider HDFC better than ICICI. But ICICI have also respondents and it can increase its investors by improving itself in some terms.
To conclude we can say mutual fund is a best investment vehicle for old & widow, as well as to those who want regular returns on their investment.
Mutual fund is also better and preferable for those who want their capital appreciation.
Both the companies are doing considerable achievements in mutual fund industry. There are also so many competitors involved those affects on both companies.
