PROJECT PROPOSAL:

Introduction:

The origin of mutual fund industry in India is with the introduction of the concept of mutual fund

by UTI in the year 1963. Though the growth was slow, but it accelerated from the year 1987

when non-UTI players entered the industry.

In the past decade, Indian mutual fund industry had seen a dramatic imporvements, both

qualitywise as well as quantitywise. Before, the monopoly of the market had seen an ending

phase, the Assets Under Management (AUM) was Rs. 67bn. The private sector entry to the fund

family rose the AUM to Rs. 470 bn in March 1993 and till April 2004, it reached the height of

1,540 bn.

Putting the AUM of the Indian Mutual Funds Industry into comparison, the total of it is less than

the deposits of SBI alone, constitute less than 11% of the total deposits held by the Indian

banking industry.

The main reason of its poor growth is that the mutual fund industry in India is new in the

country. Large sections of Indian investors are yet to be intellectuated with the concept. Hence, it

is the prime responsibility of all mutual fund companies, to market the product correctly abreast

of selling.
