Introduction

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

It has been a little over 20 years since the asset management industry was opened up to the entry

of new players. The objective was to expand the business by widening and deepening the market

for asset management products. The inclusion of asset management products in the basket of

traditional investment avenues such as cash-in-hand, corporate and fixed deposits (FDs), savings

accounts, stocks and gold was expected to occur over time. The mid-90s saw the emergence of

stock investment trends with large-scale retail investments in the primary and secondary stock

markets. The IPO boom of the early 90s saw retail investors opting to invest a significant portion of

their investible surpluses in the stock markets. The enhanced liquidity chasing stocks

correspondingly saw a surge in the BSE Sensex from under 2000 in 1992 to around 5000 as on 31

March 2000. The same period also saw the asset management industry expand rapidly in terms of

number of schemes, products and companies. Considering the industry is still relatively young, its

evolution and growth over the two decades is impressive. This is true in all aspects and not just

about the scale of growth of assets under management (AuM). It applies to the creation of evolved

products as well as the human capital and skill development. The ecosystem including support and

outsourced functions has been created and knit together almost from scratch. The regulatory

regime kept pace with the changing environment and the AuM of the asset management industry

grew from 470 billion INR in 1993 to 1396 billion INR in 2004 and to 8252 billion INR in 2014.

LOOKING AHEAD

We earn regularly, we spend regularly but do we invest regularly??We all have various dreams that

we want to realize such as owning a house, owning a car or going on a vacation. Investments in

mutual funds can help realize such dreams. As we all know mutual funds have become highly

popular financial instrument in the recent years. Half of the household in America invest in a

mutual fund which stands out to trillions of dollars. This is indeed a huge sum of money. Slowly but

steadily the Indian Market is also adopting to investments in the Mutual Fund Industry. Currently

there are about 78 Lakh Investors in India who contribute to Mutual Funds on a regular basis. This

might be a small number as compared to other developed markets but one must consider this as

taking a baby step towards the right direction. This project gives you an insight into the mutual

fund industry and the likely trend in the Mutual Fund industry in the near future.

WHAT IS A MUTUAL FUND??

The history of Mutual Funds in India can be dated back to 1963, when UTI was established, by an

act of Parliament. There has been a drastic rise in the AuM in this period a mere 470 billion INR in

1993 to 1396 billion INR in 2004 and to 8252 billion INR in 2014. In this context it becomes

pertinent to study the pattern and behavior of the Mutual fund schemes, to which the common

man is still unaware of. The risk-return relationship is perhaps one of the best ways to analyze the

performance of a mutual fund. (AMFI, 2015)

A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common

financial goal. It is essentially a diversified portfolio of financial instruments - these could be

equities, debentures/bonds or money market instruments. The corpus of the fund is then

deployed in investment alternatives that help to meet predefined investment objectives. The

income earned through these investments and the capital appreciation realised are shared by its

unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is a suitable

investment for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally

managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost. The various types of funds are Balanced,

Debt. , Dynamic/Asset Allocation, Equity, ETF, Fund of Funds, GILT, Liquid, Regular and Speciality

Funds.

WHY ANALYSIS OF OPEN ENDED EQUITY MUTUAL FUNDS??

Open-ended Mutual Funds are priced daily and are always willing to buy back units from investors.

This means that investors can sell their holdings in Mutual Fund investments anytime without

worrying about finding a buyer at the right price. In the case of other investment avenues such as

stocks and bonds, buyers are not necessarily available and therefore these investment avenues are

less liquid compared to open-ended schemes of Mutual Funds. Thus there is a continuous shift in

the portfolio of an Open ended equity mutual fund. A closer look into the various portfolios can

help us predict an industry shift i.e. uptrend and downtrend in the NAV (Net Asset Value) of a fund.

Objective and Methodology

OBJECTIVE:

To analyze all the open ended equity mutual Fund schemes in India using an in house built in excel

tool.

“The Market offers more than 340 Parent open ended mutual fund schemes in India. Each mutual

fund is promising better returns than the other. In this paper an attempt has been made to analyze

the performance of all the open ended equity mutual funds schemes in India.”Comparisons have

been made on the basis of current 2 months portfolio data.

Impact of performance and overall market movement on inflows:

72 % of the investors profit on exit, even during turbulent times. Worryingly, may be cutting

themselves off from further gains. It’s time for distributors and fund houses to reinforce the

benefits of sticking around longer. It has also been noticed that the largest 4 schemes in the open

ended equity category are the ones which have built up a reputation for performance for a

substantial part of their long existence - HDFC Top 200, Reliance Growth Fund, HDFC Equity and

Franklin India Prima fund. (Jain, 2015)

The report concludes on an optimistic note that equity funds have come of age and are likely to

keep up this momentum over the next five to six years given many favorable factors such as under

penetration, high economic growth rate, tax benefits such as equity linked savings schemes and

enhanced presence in household savings products.

METHODOLOGY:

An excel tool had been built for the comparison of data. The tool helped us to amalgamate data

from MFI Explorer and Capital Line.

The project can be divided into 3 parts:

1. Data extracted from MFI Explorer, data extracted from Capital Line in an excel sheet(.xls

format )

2. Compilation of data into a master file (.xls format)

3. Analysis of data using Pivots in Excel Sheet. Data changes based on Large Cap, mid cap,

diversified funds etc.

on the monthly average price or the day price. Formula Used VLOOKUP (BSE Code, ISIN Code)>>

Capitaline Master.

Market Cap: Market Cap represents the total market capitalization of a company. It represents the

value of all the listed shares of that particular company. Formula Used VLOOKUP (BSE Code, ISIN

Code)>> Capitaline Master.

Note: Market cap represents the total market capitalization based on the current price of the share.

Market Cap Band: Market cap band represents the current market cap scenario of the company.

The company can be small, mid, micro or a large cap company. Bifurcations have been made on the

basis of size of the market capitalization.

The entire Market cap lies in the range of 0 to 10000 Cr, 10000 Cr. and above. It signifies type of

companies the mutual funds are investing in.

Instrument: Instrument signifies the type of instrument the Mutual Fund scheme has invested in, it

can be an equity or debt. Any other instrument apart from equity is named as “Other Instrument”.

Change in Share Price Band: Change in the share price band represents the percentage change in

the price of shares. The change in share price detail is on month on month basis. Data is framed

from MFI Explorer as the current month on top and the previous month on bottom.

The range of change in Share price band is categorized into 6 bifurcations from “More than 30%

Decrease to More than 30% increase “.

Change in Volume of Shares Traded: Change in the volume of shares traded represents the

percentage change in the volume of shares traded. This field forms an important part as we see

from our analysis that there is not always an increase in the price due to an increase in the volume

of shares being traded.

The range of change in volume of shares traded band is categorized into 6 bifurcations from “More

than 30% Decrease to More than 30% increase “.

Return: Returns on the stock. Returns can be 1M, 3M, 6M, 1Y returns. Formula used HLOOKUP

(“Based on time frame”) >> Capitaline Master.

Index Weighatge: This field shows the weightage of the particular stock in stated benchmark index.

Benchmark index can be BSE Sensex, Nifty, BSE 100, BSE 200, BSE Sharia Index etc. It means a

mutual fund considering BSE Sharia as its benchmark will only invest in stocks present in the BSE

Sharia index.

Note: it is not necessary that all large cap, small cap etc. should follow the same set of index. A

HDFC fund may follow a different index than a DSP Blackrock fund though both may be large cap

funds.

Coverage Ratio: Coverage ratio is the weightage of that particular stock in the fund. We usually

compare the coverage ratio with the index weightage. It briefs us about the stocks exposure in the

fund as compared to the exposure of the stock in the index.

Active Ratio: The difference of the corpus percentage and the coverage ratio is the active ratio. It

signifies what percentage of the investment has been done outside the coverage ratio.

Note: Till date no mutual fund officially publishes the coverage rate or the active ratio.

Scheme Classification: Scheme classification shows type of scheme i.e Diversified, balanced, large

cap, GILT Funds etc.

MoM Change in Shares: MoM shows the changes in the number of shares on a monthly basis. There

can be an increase or decrease in the number of shares on a monthly basis.

ACTIVE RATIO AND COVERAGE RATIO OF ALL INDEX FUNDS

Portfolio profiles are always carefully monitored in terms of 'active ratio’ and 'coverage ratio'

which measures aggregate active weights in individual stocks and overlaps with benchmark

holdings respectively.

While active ratio is a key metric for the alpha generation potential of a portfolio, coverage ratio

represents the alpha preservation component needed to maintain the desired beta and style

characteristics. The figure shows the Active ratios and the coverage ratios of all the prominent

index funds in the industry.

Findings and Observation

Findings and observation are based on the current economic scenario.

1. Oil Prices:

Oil prices have risen about 35-40% from the low levels seen in the recent past. Currently crude oil

is trading at 66 Dollars per Barrel. India has benefitted disproportionately from the sharp

fundamental fall in crude prices. Crude price has fallen from ~110 in the FY 14 to ~65 now.

(http://www.oil-price.net/, 2015) India's crude import bill for FY 14 was 165 Billion USD. The

sharp fall has helped the economy save nearly 50 Billion USD. The budgeted subsidy bill for

petroleum has been reduced by Rs. 30 thousand Crs. Further, with the fuel reforms, the pressure

on Government from increasing crude prices is far lower. India will be easily able to manage the

current oil prices (or even a marginally higher level from now). (NASDAQ, 2015) In addition, the

fundamental outlook for crude is for the prices to remain muted. Therefore, the recent hike in the

prices is not a major concern but oil and Gas stocks have thereby not performed substantially.

Returns in the Oil and gas sector are a mere 2.5% for the past 3months. Mutual funds holding huge

corpus under the Oil and Gas Sector have not benefited much from the sharp fall in the crude oil

prices.

2. Rupee:

Rupee had depreciated to 64 levels against the Dollar - lowest in 20 Months, before retracing

marginally to current levels of 63.7. However, despite the recent depreciation, Rupee is one of the

Best among EM currencies. Rupee has lost just 1.86% in the current year, as against Turkish Lira or

Brazilian Real, which have fallen by about 14%. Over the medium term, sustained economic

growth will attract capital flows, and help Rupee. (Currency, 2015)

Global investors still feel that the Indian markets are overvalued. The market had therefore had

correction in the recent months leading to a decrease in NAV Net asset value) of all the leading

funds.

3. Bond Yields

The 10 Year G-Sec Yields had inched closer to 8%.The movement in gilt yields is in line with sharp

sell-off in the global bonds. US 10 year Yield inched up to 2.27%, a sharp increase in the recent

past, perhaps on the fear that oil prices could go up further. In my view India is one of the few

Page 36: PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS OF ALL THE OPEN ENDED EQUITY MUTUAL FUND SCHEMES IN INDIA

Page 34

34

countries in the world, which could afford to cut interest rates meaningfully - Current over-night

rates are 250 bps above CPI inflation. Rates across the yield curve far higher. The Central Bank is

targeting a real rate of 1.5-2%, leaving enough headroom to cut rates. Continuing fiscal prudence,

disinflationary trends and benign liquidity scenario are expected to result in lowering of interest

rates. The Lowering of the rate cut could lead to an improvement of market sentiments.

4. Monsoon and RBI Rate Cuts.

The RBI cut interest rates for a third time this year on 2nd June 2015, taking advantage of subdued

inflation to lend more support to an economy that the bank itself says is not doing as well as latest

impressive growth numbers suggest. The Reserve Bank of India also left open the possibility of

further cuts later this year, even with forecasts of a below-average monsoon that could put

pressure on food prices. Previous cuts in January and March had also been by 25 basis points. As

on the first week of June the monsoon was below average thus leading to only 25 basis points

reduction in the interest rates rather than a 50 basis point reduction in the rate cut estimated by

many analysts. Over the month of June the conditions of Monsoon had increased leading to an

estimation of further rate cut in the next quarter. If the conditions of stable monsoon improve we

can expect further rate cut leading to an uptick in Sensex and Nifty indices.

Despite demands from India's commercial banks, the RBI did not take steps to free up liquidity,

which bankers had said were needed for them to lower lending rates further and pass on the

benefits of monetary easing to the broader economy. Instead, with growth in bank lending at its

lowest in almost two decades, the RBI urged banks to reduce rates quickly.

The market had been down by about 600-700 points on the day the rate cuts had been declared.

The Mid and Micro cap had fallen by around 10-12% on intraday trading. The conditions of

Monsoon improved during the month of June leading to an improvement in market sentiments and

leading to an increase in the Indices.

5. Sharp run-up in markets.

Indian equities had gone up by 55% since Sep 2013 (since Mr. Modi was announced as BJP

candidate), before the recent correction of 8-10%.There may be a bit of fatigue and profit-booking

in some stocks. However, the valuation of Indian equities is very attractive. At 19x trailing P/E on

low cyclical earnings, and 15x 2 Yr Fwd PE on expectations of decent turnaround in earnings, the

valuations are quite attractive. Market Cap / GDP at 75% low in absolute and relative terms.

Page 35

6. Flows to other countries.

Countries like China, Korea, Taiwan and Japan have been attracting inflows in the recent past. Most

investors were heavily underweight in countries like China because their economy was

systemically slowing down. However, cheap valuations have started attracting fund flows recently.

For instance, since the beginning of August 2014, their markets have gone up by nearly 85%. Some

of the recent IPOs have also attracted flows into China. However, over the medium to long term,

investors are likely to be guided by fundamentals, and hence we believe India is well-placed to

receive flows. In Dollar Terms, Indian equity markets are at the same level as in May 2014, around

elections, making it particularly attractive for FIIs. This had led to a correction in the market.

FIIs have pulled out nearly Rs. 4000 Crs from equity markets in the first two weeks of May.

However, FIIs have been consistently investing into India over the longer term. Since 2009, they

have invested 120 Billion USD, an average of 20 Bn USD per year. They have been net sellers only in

2008-2009 during the global crisis when they had sold 10.4 Bn USD. With the fundamental outlook

for India remaining strong, we expect FII flows to be robust. In addition to FII flows, Domestic

Flows will also help. Mutual Funds, for instance, invested 6.6 Bn USD in 2014.

7. Policy Issues.

The current government is working on various reforms and is trying to implement reforms swiftly.

Government is firmly committed to bringing about key reforms and implementing them. GST has

been passed in the Lok Sabha, diesel price has been deregulated, gas price revision, targeted

subsidy, hiking FDI limit in critical sectors of Railways, Defence and Insurance, etc., to name a few.

It’s very much likely that more such reforms will get implemented, benefiting the economy.

Recommendations

1. India is extremely well-placed for long-term economic growth and to generate attractive

equity returns. The current market correction should be used as a good opportunity to

increase allocation to equities. Mutual Funds provides up an opportunity to invest in

mutual funds with lesser risk and higher returns.

2. It is on the basis on one’s risk appetite that once should decide on the type of Mutual Fund

he should invest in. Equity Mutual Funds is high risk instrument and one should invest in

equity mutual funds over long term to negate the risk factor. Balanced Funds invest in both

equity and debt components and thus the risk factor is moderate. Tata Balance fund has

given decent return of 16 % over a period of 5 Years. Certain Mutual Funds invests in Bonds

and Government securities where the risk factor is less but the returns are low as well.

3. Investing in mutual fund once should always have a long term perspective. If one would

have remained invested in Reliance Growth Fund for 20 years it would have earned CAGR of

above 20 %. In short if one would have invested Rs. 1,00,000 in 1995 he would have an

asset value of 78,50,000 by 2015. Thus it is advisable to invest in mutual funds to fulfill long

term goals.

4. Mutual Funds can also be segmented into various types based on the sector where the Fund

has invested its corpus into. The various sectors might be Pharmaceuticals, Banking and

Financial Services, Infrastructure or PSU’s. We should be very clear about the asset class the

fund is investing into. The various asset classes might not give similar returns every time.

Pharmaceuticals Funds has given maximum returns for the past 10 Years where as Banking

& Financial Services have given a return of more than 60 % CAGR return only over a period

of 3 years. Thus the portfolio of the scheme should be thoroughly analyzed before investing.

5. One must take help from financial planners and investment advisors before investing into a

mutual fund scheme.
