INDUSTRY PROFILE
Evolution
Indian Stock Markets are one of the oldest in Asia. Its history
dates back to nearly 200 years ago. The earliest records of security dealings
in India are obscure. The East India Company was the dominant institution
in those days and business in its loan securities used to be transacted towards
the close of the eighteenth century.
By 1830's business on corporate stocks and shares in Bank and Cotton
presses took place in Bombay. Though the trading list was broader in 1839,
there were only half a dozen brokers recognized by banks and merchants
during 1840 and 1850.
The 1850's witnessed a rapid development of commercial enterprise and
brokerage business attracted many men into the field and by 1860 the
number of brokers increased into 60.
In 1860-61 the American Civil War broke out and cotton supply from
United States of Europe was stopped; thus, the 'Share Mania' in India
begun. The number of brokers increased to about 200 to 250. However, at
the end of the American Civil War, in 1865, a disastrous slump began (for
example, Bank of Bombay Share which had touched Rs 2850 could only be
sold at Rs. 87).
At the end of the American Civil War, the brokers who thrived out of Civil
War in 1874, found a place in a street (now appropriately called as Dalal
Street) where they would conveniently assemble and transact business. In
1887, they formally established in Bombay, the "Native Share and Stock
Brokers' Association" (which is alternatively known as “The Stock
Exchange "). In 1895, the Stock Exchange acquired a premise in the same
street and it was inaugurated in 1899. Thus, the Stock Exchange at Bombay
was consolidated.
The Second
World War broke out in 1939. It gave a sharp boom, which was followed by
a slump. But, in 1943, the situation changed radically, when India was fully
mobilized as a supply base.
On account of the restrictive controls on cotton, bullion, seeds and other
commodities, those dealing in them found in the stock market as the only
outlet for their activities. They were anxious to join the trade and their
number was swelled by numerous others. Many new associations were
constituted for the purpose and Stock Exchanges in all parts of the country
were floated.
The Uttar Pradesh Stock Exchange Limited (1940), Nagpur Stock Exchange
incorporated.
The CCI guidelines were abolished with the introduction of Securities &
Exchange Board of India (SEBI) formed under the SEBI Act, 1992 with
the prime objective of protecting the interests of investors in securities,
promoting the development of, and regulating, the securities market
and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto.’
The SEBI Act came into force on 30th January 1992 and with its
establishment, all public issues are governed by the rules & regulations
issued by SEBI.
SEBI was formed to promote fair dealing in issue of
securities and to ensure that the capital markets function efficiently,
transparently and economically in the better interests of both the issuers
and the investors.
The promoters should be able to raise funds at a relatively low cost. At the
same time, investors must be protected from unethical practices and their
rights must be safeguarded so that there is a steady flow of savings into the
market. There must be proper regulation and code of conduct and fair

Trading Mechanism
A member broker in an Indian stock exchange can act as an agent, buy and
sell securities for his clients on a commission basis and also can act as a
trader or dealer as a principal, buy and sell securities on his own account and
risk, in contrast with the practice prevailing on New York and London Stock
Exchanges, where a member can act as a broker only.
The nature of trading on Indian Stock Exchanges are that of age old
conventional style of face-to-face trading with bids and offers being made by
open outcry. However, there is a great amount of effort to modernize the
Background:
The BSE Sensitive Index (Sensex) has, to a considerable
extent, been serving the purpose of quantifying the price movements as also
reflecting the sensitivity of the market in an effective manner. It is the oldest
stock exchange, established in 1875.
The number of companies listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange has
registered a phenomenal increase from 992 in the year 1980 to about 4800
companies by the end of July 2005 and their combined market capitalization
rose from Rs. 5,421 crores to around Rs. 18, 00,000crores at end of July
2005.
Coverage:
The equity shares of 200 selected companies from the specified
and non-specified lists of this Exchange have been considered for inclusion
in the sample for `BSE-200'. The selection of companies has primarily been
done on the basis of current market capitalization of the listed scrip on the
exchange. Besides market capitalization, the market activity of the
companies as reflected by the volumes of turnover and certain fundamental
factors were considered for the final selection of the 200 companies.
Choice of Base Year: The financial year 1989-90 has been chosen as the
base year for the price stability exhibited during that year and due to its
proximity to the current period.

CONCEPTUALIZATION
Investing is not just putting money in some instrument for the future but it
involves taking careful steps to make money grow. When you invest, your
goal is that its value will increase over a period of time. There are large
numbers of investment avenues available to invest like stocks, real estate,
bank deposits, government of India bonds, post office saving schemes etc.
The investment vehicles available for one to choose today vary from money
market certificates (which earn set rates of interest) to high-risk growth
stocks. Investing in any instrument almost always involves some risk, but if
you learn how to analyze investments carefully and invest wisely over an
extended period of time, investing is a proven way to increase wealth.
Careful analysis and proper investment steps improve once capability to earn
reward in the long run through investment alternatives available.
Investments are nothing but parking your savings into various instruments
available which suits the best risk and return appetite of the individual.
“Income – expenditure = Savings”
Savings are the difference between the net income and the total expenditure
made.
Investment avenues and alternatives
1.1 ANALYSING VARIOUS AMC’S AND THEIR SCHEMES
In recent years the 6.5 percent tax-free RBI Bonds have become a very
popular saving instrument -- especially amongst individuals. Till 1996, these
bonds gave returns of 10 per cent. This came down to 9 per cent and then 8
percent and then in 2003 it was reduced to 6.5 per cent (tax free). Nowadays,
8 percent taxable Government of India bonds are also doing well to attract
investors who want safe and higher yield.
The person in the 30 percent tax bracket, the 8 per cent RBI bonds will give
returns of approximately 5.6 per cent. Though this is much lower than the
previous 6.5 percent, it is still a better than most other options. If you are a
senior citizen, the Senior Citizens Savings scheme offering a 9 Percent
yearly interest is a good investment option. The scheme was announced in
the Budget 2004-2005 and was meant for people above the age of 60.
However, this scheme has a maximum deposit limit of Rs. 15 lacs while RBI
Bonds do not have any limit. In this case, the term for deposit is five years
with a facility for premature withdrawal. The 9 percent returns are subject to
tax, so if you are in the 30 percent tax bracket, you will effectively get
returns of 6.3 per cent.
Another option can be Floating Rate Bond Fund offered by mutual funds.
Basically, these funds invest in floating rate instruments and therefore have a
direct correlation to interest rates. If interest rates go up the returns from
these funds rise and returns fall with a fall in interest rates. This is unlike
debt funds, where there is a reverse relationship between interest rates and
returns. A rise in interest rates results in a fall in returns. In the current
scenario, these funds are likely to give returns of 5 percent to 5.5 percent.
The dividends are tax-free in the hands of the investor and most importantly,
there is complete liquidity. Again, there is no limit on the amount that can be
deposited. Also, there is hardly any volatility making it a safe option. If you
are willing to take a bit of risk, you can divide your portfolio in such a way
that 60 percent is invested in floating rate bond funds and the remaining 40
percent in equity. That's like having an MIP except that instead of 80 percent
in debt and 20 percent in equity, here the 60 percent is in floating rate bond
funds. Such a portfolio can give you returns of aprox. 8.5 % to 9.5 %.
The NSCs and the Kisan Vikas Patras give returns of 8 percent so for those
in the 30 percent tax bracket, it works out to 5.6 percent. Here too there is no
limit on the amount of deposit. However, here the interest is posted only at
the time of maturity. So it is not a good option if you want regular returns.
On the other hand, RBI Bonds give returns every six months or half yearly.
So, depending upon their risk profile and need for liquidity, one will have to
decide on their portfolio. For anyone below 35 years, it is recommend that
one should invest some part of there portfolio in RBI Bonds and in NSCs,
KVPs as a long term investments and the remaining in combination of
floating rate bond funds and equity But for those above 35,

less than one year at the time of issue are called money market instruments.
The important money market instruments are:
Treasury bills
Money Market Instruments - Debt instruments which have a
maturity of Commercial paper
Certificates of deposits
Real Estate - For the bulk of the investors the most important asset in their
portfolio is a residential house. In addition to a residential house, the more
affluent investors are likely to be interested in the following types of real
estate:
Agricultural land
Semi-urban land
Time share in a holiday resort
Precious Objects - Precious objects are items that are generally small in
size but highly valuable in monetary terms. Some important precious objects
are:
Gold and silver
Precious stones
Art objects
Since every individual would like to earn return on their investment but
where to invest has always been a problem. There has always been a
confusion as to which instrument to invest, which instrument will give me
higher returns, etc. Even now nuclear families are in and so are longer life
spans. Even inflation is increasing increasing and so do the standard of life,
medical costs, and other things. In such a scenario, one need to think as to
how he will take care of all his future needs and build up a corpus that will
not only take care of routine expenses but also provide for extra costs,
especially of health care. One need to have a corpus of funds, post-
retirement, which will give him close to 100% of the salary to preserve the
lifestyle he has grown to enjoy.
Introduction
Suitability of Funds
Mutual Fund suits all class of investors who are interested in raising their
personal funds. The investments are based on the risk factor of the investor
if the risk is higher the return is also high similarly if the risk is low the
return on a particular investment will also be low.
If the risk is slightly-averse, the investor should prefer a balanced fund,
which invests in stocks only up to 60-70%. If the investor wants to go for
larger risk-averse, stick to growth funds. If the investor wants regular returns
than investor must go for income funds, with average risk but the risk is less
than equity fund. The Mutual fund managers make decision of the funds
depending on the investment objective of the investors. They can go for
liquid funds like Cash Funds or short term floating rate funds. They may
also go for funds based on when you want your funds back. The investor
who wants short term and quick return a short-term bond fund would just be
fine as return will be within three to six months. An income fund or an
equity fund would fit in if the investor willing to afford the fund to leave it
with the fund manager for over a year.
Even within each category, you can pick and choose i.e. in equity funds, for
example, you have a variety of options: blue chip funds, mid-cap funds,
contrarian funds, opportunity funds, dividend yield funds, sectoral funds that
invest specifically in select business segments etc. Equity-linked savings
schemes allow you to reap tax gains up to Rs 1 lakh (Rs 100,000) a year.
Many equity funds offer the option of systematic investment plan (SIP) that
allows you to invest a certain sum every month or every quarter. This
amount is fixed for every installment to be paid. This way, you not only
discipline your investments but to a great extent an investor can protect
themselves against the vagaries of the market.
Debt funds don’t lack luster either. The investor have a choice medium term
debt funds, short-term bond funds, floating rate funds, dynamic bond funds
and cash funds. If an investor wants an aggressive debt fund, then they can
go for gilt funds. If the preference is a mix of both equity and debt, MIPs or
balanced funds would do just fine.
The net asset value (NAVs) of a fund, which points to how much a unit of
the fund is worth on a particular day, is declared every working day. You
know where your money is going and how it is doing performing in the
market.
A few years ago, even if you wanted to buy a mutual fund, it was not easy.
Few distributors, most of them small, sold mutual funds. The quality of their
advice often left a lot to be desired. But today, you could buy mutual funds
in over 60 cities or towns, either through their own offices or through banks.
All private sector banks now sell mutual funds across the counters in most
branches. Some public sector banks too have begun marketing mutual funds
through select branches.
Professionally Managed
When you buy a mutual fund, you hand over the task of investing to a
qualified and probably more knowledgeable fund manager who is paid for
finding the right opportunities for you. The service standards set by mutual
fund companies are better as compare to other sources of raising finance. As
other sources of raising funds are more risky than mutual funds as their
investor have to do the direct dealings. As for example, most fund
distributors will come to your residence or office and explain the product
features and also collect your cheque.
If you want to sell your fund, you can do so pretty quickly too, mostly
within one or two working days. There is no paperwork to fear. For
example, in the case of some income funds, the money will be credited
directly into your bank account if the account is held with select banks.
In case of systematic investment plans too, you can do so with auto debits.
Every month, on a day you choose, your bank account will be debited with a
particular sum and specified mutual fund units available for that sum will be
bought. No more hassles of issuing post-dated cheques.
Despite all these facilities, you may have myriad doubts and queries. Mutual
funds offer toll-free lines at over 200 locations. For example, call-free
telephone line, you can get to know valuations, order for account statements
and even redeem your investments without any personal identification
number.
funds are performing better. The result is moving in upward curve of the
financial market. To sum up, mutual funds offer the investor large choices of
various schemes with special features and can be chosen on the requirement
of the investor.

Research Methodology: -
1. Research Design
2. Universe and Survey population
3. Sample Design
4. Collection of Data
5. Analysis Pattern
Sample Design:-
The respondents selected should be as representative of
total population as possible in order to produce a miniature cross-section.
The selected respondent constitute what is technically called a 'sample' &
the selection process is called 'sampling technique'. The survey so
conducted, is known as sample survey.
Sample chosen must be representative of universe to be studied & therefore,
every care must be taken in size may give better results the constraints like
time and money comes to limit the size of sample. So, besides, being care
representative of the universe, a sample should be convenient in terms of
size. It should neither be too small nor too big. It should be manageable.
b) Source Unit:
In this project Karvy Ltd. is the sample unit.
c) Size of Sample:
It refers to the number of items to be selected from
the universe to constitute a sample. It is accepted that the bigger the size of
the sample, the greater the representatives of whole universe. A balance is to
be maintained between sample size and time cost trade off. Sample size has
been restricted to 200 investor. However, it has been tried that all socio-
economic perspectives are well considered in the samples

Every survey has some sort of limitations and this survey also has some
limitations:
1. Time Constraint: -
The major limitation of the study was time
2. Financial Constraint: -
Another limitation was financial constraint
as very few money was available.
3. Small Sample Size: -
Sample size was very small as compared to the
for the whole range of customer satisfaction on the basis of sample data.
4. Lack of knowledge: -
Proper information and knowledge are basis
of any research but there was lack of information and knowledge. Customers
were not ready to provide the information.
5. Inadequate Data: -
There might be wrong data provided in the
questionnaire as data was collected through telephonic calls also.
Conclusion
Mutual fund investment is better than other raising funds and in the coming
years it will prove to be the best source of investors. If past collection figures
are a testimony, investors seem to have realized this. Both the public Mutual
funds and Private Mutual
Other Findings
The Stock Market has been very buoyant until now especially in the
past 3 years. This particular trend is very favorable because a soaring
SENSEX means higher returns, which encourages the investors to
invest their money in the market. Although in the past 3 months the
market has shown very unpredictable trend and has already lost over
1000 points.
People have just opened up to the idea of ULIPs because till now they knew
only two kinds of insurance plans, endowment and term plans so the concept
of high returns with protection is very new to them and slowly and slowly
these are becoming popular so there is a huge market waiting to be tapped
