INTRODUCTION TO MUTUAL FUND INDUSTRY
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 improvement, both qualities wise as well as quantity wise. Before, the monopoly
of the market had seen an ending phase; the Assets under Management (AUM) were Rs. 67bn.
The private sector entry to the fund family raised 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 thanthe 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. The mutual fund industry can be broadly put into four phases
according to the development of the sector. Each phase is briefly described as under.
First Phase - 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 de-linked 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, 700crores of assets under management.
Second Phase - 1987-1993 (Entry of Public Sector Funds)
Entry of non-UTI mutual funds. SBI Mutual Fund was the first 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 in 1989 and GIC in
1990. The end of 1993 marked Rs.47, 004 as assets under management.
Third Phase - 1993-2003 (Entry of Private Sector Funds)
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, exceptUTI 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.
The 1993 SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations were substituted by a more comprehensive and
revised Mutual Fund Regulations in 1996. The industry now functions under the SEBI (Mutual
Fund) Regulations 1996.
The number of mutual fund houses went on increasing, with many foreign mutual funds settingup 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.
Fourth Phase - since February 2003
This phase had bitter experience for UTI. It was bifurcated into two separate entities. One is the
Specified Undertaking of the Unit Trust of India with AUM of Rs.29,835 crores (as on January
2003). The Specified Undertaking of Unit Trust of India, functioning under an administrator and
under the rules framed by Government of India and does not come under the purview of the
Mutual Fund Regulations.

The second is the UTI Mutual Fund Ltd, sponsored by SBI, PNB, BOB and LIC. It is registered
with SEBI and functions under the Mutual Fund Regulations. With the bifurcation of the
erstwhile UTI which had in March 2000 more than Rs.76,000 crores of AUM and with the
setting up of a UTI Mutual Fund, conforming to the SEBI Mutual Fund Regulations, and with
recent mergers taking place among different private sector funds, the mutual fund industry has
entered its current phase of consolidation and growth. As at the end of September, 2004, there
were 29 funds, which manage assets of Rs.153108 crores under 421 schemes.

takeover of AMC. The sponsor, who has sold out, exits the AMC. This needs high court
approval as well as SEBI and Trustee approval.

REGULATORY STRUCTURE OF MUTUAL FUNDS IN INDIA
The regulation of mutual funds in India is governed by the SEBI vide the SEBI (Mutual Fund)
Regulation, Act 1996 (here in after referred to as SEBI Regulations). These regulations make it
mandatory for mutual funds to have a three-tier structure of sponsor Trustee Asset
Management Company (AMC). The sponsor is the promoter of the mutual fund and appoints the
trustees. The Trustees are responsible to the investors in the mutual fund and appoint the AMC
for managing the investment portfolio.SEBI regulations also provide for who can be a sponsor,
trustee and AMC, specifying the format of agreement between these entities. These agreements
provide for the rights, duties and obligations of these three entities. The UTI is also structured as
a trust. The important difference through is that UTI does not have sponsors or a separate AMC.
Financial intuitions and banks that contributed to the initial capital of the UTI have their
representatives on UTIs Board of Trustees, which oversees the operation of UTI Mutual Fund.
The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) is a self-regulatory body formed by the
various MF Companies to address the practices and policies of various aspects like new scheme
launches, payments to intermediaries comparisons and other ethical systems.
Likewise, different companies have their own Compliance and Audit offices, which are
mandated to control and report adherence to and deviations if any on the regulations and policies
issued by SEBI.
