Frankly speaking, any job or the task, have the specific objective i.e. what is need and what is the requirement of the particular work. In the same way my objective is also to learn something from the summer internship program . It means that the training program in any reputed company give the market knowledge of its subject matter of study. The right choice of the company in which a student has to do the training, is also the part of the learning and what he/she want to learn in the summer training. In the short span since the insurance sector was opened up, Many companies have literally dictated the market’s evolution. Catering to all age and income segments, the company stated out with the traditional insurance policies that were easy to understand, the idea was to entice customers used to LIC’s style of functioning. Reliance money began exploring new areas; it introduced modern products, like Unitlinked Product where return are linked to the market performance of the underlying assets. Reliance Money leads and virtually all parameters; size of agent force, number of policies sold, total sum, total sum assured, premium income and productivity of agents it has set exacting standards for its range of products, riders offered, quality of information in promotional material and even in the insurance awareness events organized. What has been in favour of Reliance Money is the range of product in each segment of life insurance-traditional, unit-linked and single premium option, that are for retirement plan or child plan. With such a comprehensive bouquet, it caters to the financial goals of a customer. Reliance Money a growing reputed company give the good platform in selling of the product like insurance, Equity & commodities, derivative, IPO’s, offshore investment, mutual fund, gold coins etc. So the objective of study is to see in the basket of product and satisfaction of customers with the company through research work in Dehradun.

This project has been a great learning experience for me, at the same time it gave me enough scope to implement my analytical ability. The first part gives an insight about the Demat Account, Life Insurance, General Insurance and mutual funds and theirs various aspects. It is purely based on whatever I learned at Reliance Money. One can have a brief knowledge about mutual funds and all its basics through the project. Other than that the real servings come when one moves ahead. Some of the most interesting questions regarding these products have been covered. Some of them are: •

Why has it become one of the largest financial intermediaries?



How investors do chose between funds and these products?

Most popular stocks among fund managers, most lucrative sectors for fund managers, a special report on Systematic Investment Plan, does fund performance persists and the topping of all the servings in the form of portfolio analysis tool and its application. All the topics have been covered in a very systematic way. The language has been kept simple so that even a layman could understand. All the quarries of the customer asked by them, had been solved with the support of the seniors in the organization. The problems of the customer were being recorded for the purpose of the research and development.

The scope of the study refers to the job that to know about the activities of the organization. The study means that the analysis of the products of the company on which he/she has to focus. During the summer training the volunteer need to find out the corporate strategies of the running company and The mile stone which the company has covered during its journey. In the summer training, it is necessary for the student that he /she involve with the experience guys to get the knowledge about the company. That is how the company has got the success, Or if it is going in the loss, why. In my training period I have found that the reliance group is the biggest group in Indian companies.

Considering the entire life market, including the Rs. 12,890 crores booked by life insurance Corporation, Reliance life insurance market share works out to around 6.25% . The life insurance market continuous to be dominated by LIC which has about 67% share this only a marginal dip from its 73% share in end-July . These comparisons are only for first year or new business premium. The gap between Reliance life insurance and the second-in-line private insurer is vast. In fact, this scenario has led some analysts to wonder if the company is not a trifle too aggressive. But others say this has more to do with the companies’ customer-centric

14

focus, its pan-India presence and superior risk management and investment strategies. Reliance Money is not, however, resting on its laurels. Company’s customer centric approach will be studied during the training period and the finding of the research work will definitely focus on the present condition & future requirement (if any) relating to products of company.

Products of Life Insurance Life Insurance products are usually referred to as ‘plans’ of insurance. These plans have two basic elements, one is the “Death Cover” providing for the benefits being paid on the

26

death of the insured person within a specified period. The other is the “Survival Benefit” providing for the benefit being paid on survival of a specified period. •

Plans of insurance that provide only death cover are called “Term Assurance” Plans.



Plans of insurance that provide only survival benefits are called “Pure Endowment” Plans.

Term Life Insurance Term Life Insurance provides protection for a specified period of time. A death benefit is paid to the beneficiary if the insured dies within a specified period of time while the policy is still in force.

Whole Life Insurance Whole Life insurance is a permanent life insurance and provides protection for life. As long as premiums are paid, a death benefit is paid to the beneficiary.

ULIPs A ULIP is a life insurance which provides a combination of Life Insurance protection and investment. Money can be invested in the following fund:- Equity Fund, Debt Fund, Money Market Fund (Liquid Fund) and Balance Fund.

Annuities Annuities are practically the same as pension. Pension provides periodical payments to the employees, who have retired. They are paid as long as the recipient is alive. Annuities are called the “reverse” of Life Insurance.

Choose from four different investment funds



Flexibility to switch between funds

Option to package your policy with accidental rider



Flexibility to increase the sum assured



Liquidity through partial withdrawals

How does this plan work The premium paid by the client net of premium allocation charges is invested in fund/funds of your choice and units are allocated depending on the price of units for the fund/funds. The fund value is the total value of units that you hold in the fund/funds. The mortality charges and policy administration charges are ducted through cancellation of units whereas the fund management charge is priced in the unit value.

Benefits Life cover Assured: in case of unfortunate loss of life, the beneficiary will get sum assured or fund value, whichever is higher. The client can choose the basic sum assured within the minimum and maximum levels mentioned below.

Minimum sum Assured: •

Regular premium: annualized premium for 5 years or annualized premium for half the policy term, whichever is higher.



Single premium: 125% of the single premium.

Maximum sum Assured No limit (50000 for age up to 12 years)

Maturity Benefits 31

On survival to maturity the fund value on maturity will be paid out.

Rider Benefits The Client can add the Accidental Death & Total and Permanent Disablement Benefit Rider (available only with the regular premium option). This benefits doubles the life coverage in case of accidental death or accidental total and permanent disablement at a very nominal additional cost. The maximum cover is Rs. 50,00,000 per life. In case of accidental death of the life assured during the policy term, the accident benefit sum assured will be paid immediately in a lump sum. In case of accidental total and permanent disablement, 1/10th of the accident benefit sum assured will be paid at the end of each year for ten years. If the

total and permanent

disablement has commenced, the accidental death benefit cover ceases. In case of maturity or on death of the life assured before payment of all installments of accidental total and permanent disablement benefits, the remaining unpaid installments of any will be paid in one lump sum along with death or maturity benefit. Accidental total and permanent disablement means disability caused by bodily injury, which causes permanent inability to perform any occupation or to engage in any activities for remuneration or profits. This disability should last for at least 6 months before being eligible for accidental total and permanent disablement benefits. Accidental total and permanent disablement includes loss of both arms or both legs or one arm and one leg or of both eyes. Loss of arms or legs means dismemberment by amputation of the entire hand or foot. Loss of eyes means entire and irrecoverable loss of sight.

Overview of Demat Account.

38

In India, a Demat account, the abbreviation for dematerialised account, is a type of banking account which dematerializes paper-based physical stock shares. The dematerialised account is used to avoid holding physical shares: the shares are bought and sold through a stock broker. This account is popular in India. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) mandates a demat account for share trading above 500 shares. As of April 2006, it became mandatory that any person holding a demat account should possess a Permanent Account Number (PAN), and the deadline for submission of PAN details to the depository lapsed on January 2007.

Procedure 1. Fill demat request form (DRF) (obtained from a depository participant or DP with whom your depository account is opened). 2. Deface the share certificate(s) you want to dematerialise by writing across Surrendered for dematerialisation. 3. Submit the DRF & share certificate(s) to DP. DP would forward them to the issuer / their R&T Agent . 4. After dematerialisation, your depository account with your DP, would be credited with the dematerialised securities.

your

Points To Remember 1. Only securities admitted by NSDL can be dematerialised. The list is available with your DP. 2. Only securities registered in the name of the account holder can be dematerialised. 3. Dematerialisation is normally completed within 15 days after the share certificates have reached the issuer/ their R&T Agent. Thus it may take you a month from the date you hand over shares, to receive demat credit. 4. Dematerialisation would be done only when the issuer / their R&T Agent is satisfied of genuineness of securities & ownership status. 5. All the joint holders should sign the DRF. 6. The pattern of holding in the DRF should match the pattern of holding on the share certificate & the pattern in which account is opened. 7. Demat requests with name(s) not matching exactly with the name(s) appearing on the certificates merely on account of initials not being spelt out fully or put after

44

or prior to the surname, would be processed, provided the signature(s) of the client(s) on the DRF tallies with the specimen signature(s) available with the issuer/ their R & T agent. 8. If the signature in the DRF does not match with the signature available with the issuer/ their R & T agent, the issuer/ their R & T agent may at the time of demat confirmation, ask for additional documentation (like bank attestation/ notarisation, etc.) to prove that the certificate belongs to the person who forwarded the DRF. 9. In case there is any problem in processing the DRF, contact your DP and if he cannot resolve the problem you may contact NSDL.

Systematic Investment Plan(SIP)



Lump sum: In Lump sum the investment is only one times that

.

is of Rs. 5,000. and if the investment is monthly then the investment will be 6,000/-.



Systematic Investment Plan(SIP) :

We have already mentioned about SIPs in brief in the previous pages but now going into details, we will see how the power of compounding could benefit us. In such case, every small amounts invested regularly can grow substantially. SIP gives a clear picture of how an early and regular investment can help the investor in wealth creation. Due to its unlimited advantages SIP could be redefined as “a methodology of fund investing regularly to benefit regularly from the stock market volatility. In the later sections we will see how returns generated from some of the SIPs have outperformed their benchmark. But before moving on to that lets have a look at some of the top performing SIPs and their return for 1 year: Amoun t NAV

In the above chart, we can see how if we start investing Rs.1000 per month then what return we’ll get for the total investment of Rs. 12000. There is reliance diversified power sector retail giving the maximum returns of Rs. 2524.07 per year which comes to 21% roughly. Next we can see if anybody would have undertaken the SIP in Principal would have got returns of app. 18%. We can see reliance regular savings equity, DWS investment opportunities and BOB growth fund giving returns of 13.20%, 14.92%, and 14.74% respectively which is greater than any other monthly investment options. Thus we can easily make out how SIP is beneficial for us. Its hassle free, it forces the investors to save and get them into the habit of saving. Also paying a small amount of Rs. 1000 is easy and convenient for them, thus putting no pressure on their pockets. Now we will analyze some of the equity fund SIP s of Birla Sunlife with BSE 200 and bank fixed deposits In a tabular format as well as graphical.

Exposure of Mutual Funds Companies in India The concept of mutual funds in India dates back to the year 1963. The era between 1963 and 1987 marked the existence of only one mutual fund company in India with Rs. 67bn assets under management (AUM), by the end of its monopoly era, the Unit Trust of India (UTI). By the end of the 80s decade, few other mutual fund companies in India took their position in mutual fund market. The new entries of mutual fund companies in India were SBI Mutual Fund, Canbank Mutual Fund, Punjab National Bank Mutual Fund, Indian Bank Mutual Fund, Bank of India Mutual Fund. The succeeding decade showed a new horizon in Indian mutual fund industry. By the end of 1993, the total AUM of the industry was Rs. 470.04 bn. The private sector funds

51

started penetrating the fund families. In the same year the first Mutual Fund Regulations came into existence with re-registering all mutual funds except UTI. The regulations were further given a revised shape in 1996. Kothari Pioneer was the first private sector mutual fund company in India which has now merged with Franklin Templeton. Just after ten years with private sector players penetration, the total assets rose up to Rs. 1218.05 bn. Today there are 33 mutual fund companies in India in which some are as below. •

Advantages of Mutual Funds •

Diversification: The best mutual funds design their portfolios so individual investments will react differently to the same economic conditions. For example, economic conditions like a rise in interest rates may cause certain securities in a diversified portfolio to decrease in value. Other securities in the portfolio will respond to the same economic conditions by increasing in value. When a portfolio is balanced in this way, the value of the overall portfolio should gradually increase over time, even if some securities lose value.



Professional Management: Most mutual funds pay topflight professionals to manage their investments. These managers decide what securities the fund will buy and sell.



Regulatory oversight: Mutual funds are subject to many government regulations that protect investors from fraud.



Liquidity: It's easy to get your money out of a mutual fund. Write a check, make a call, and you've got the cash.



Convenience: You can usually buy mutual fund shares by mail, phone, or over the Internet.



Low cost: Mutual fund expenses are often no more than 1.5 percent of your investment. Expenses for Index Funds are less than that, because index funds are

54

not actively managed. Instead, they automatically buy stock in companies that are listed on a specific index •

Drawbacks of Mutual Funds Mutual funds have their drawbacks and may not be for everyone: •

No Guarantees: No investment is risk free. If the entire stock market declines in value, the value of mutual fund shares will go down as well, no matter how balanced the portfolio. Investors encounter fewer risks when they invest in mutual funds than when they buy and sell stocks on their own. However, anyone who invests through a mutual fund runs the risk of losing money.



Fees and commissions: All funds charge administrative fees to cover their dayto-day expenses. Some funds also charge sales commissions or "loads" to compensate brokers, financial consultants, or financial planners. Even if you don't use a broker or other financial adviser, you will pay a sales commission if you buy shares in a Load Fund.



Taxes: During a typical year, most actively managed mutual funds sell anywhere from 20 to 70 percent of the securities in their portfolios. If your fund makes a profit on its sales, you will pay taxes on the income you receive, even if you reinvest the money you made.



Management risk: When you invest in a mutual fund, you depend on the fund's manager to make the right decisions regarding the fund's portfolio. If the manager

55

does not perform as well as you had hoped, you might not make as much money on your investment as you expected. Of course, if you invest in Index Funds, you forego management risk, because these funds do not employ managers

Markets In tune with the global stock markets that began to recover from the second half of 2003; Indian stock markets too witnessed rapid growth. India’s two leading indices, the most popular BSE Sensex, and the one most used by the markets the National Stock Exchanges’ S&P CNX Nifty rose to record levels. Both primary and secondary market activity experienced sharp surge. Much progress was made in further strengthening and streamlining risk management, market regulation and supervision. A few aspects of the major developments in the India’s stock markets are described below. And the insurance sector is also play an important role in the growth of the financial market.

Market Structure Indian securities market is fairly large as compared to several other emerging markets. There are 22 stock exchanges in the country, though the entire liquidity is shared between the country’s two national level exchanges namely, the National Stock Exchange of India and the Bombay Stock Exchange Ltd. The regional stock exchanges are in pursuit of business models that make them viable and vibrant. Meanwhile, these exchanges have become members of the national level exchanges through formation of subsidiaries whose business is showing continuous growth and progress. The number of brokers in various stock exchanges rose from 6,711 in 1994-95 to 9,335 in FY06. The number of brokers in all the exchanges together peaked to 10,213 in the year FY01 but gradually declined thereafter when the regional stock exchanges began to lose business in the light of wide ranging market structure reforms introduced since then.

62

In FY01, when the markets were in upswing, several regional stock exchanges were generating business owing to the availability of deferral products, such Badla and different settlement calendars prevailing at that time in these exchanges. For instance in FY01, the Delhi Stock Exchange registered cash market turnover of Rs 838.71 bn; Uttar Pradesh Stock Exchange, Rs 247.47 bn, Ludhiana Stock Exchange Rs 97.32 bn, Pune Stock Exchange Rs 61.71 bn as against Rs 13,395.11 bn of the turnover at the National Stock Exchange and Rs 10,000.32 bn turnover at the Bombay Stock Exchange. With the abolition of the deferral products and introduction of uniform T+2 settlement cycle, the liquidity in these exchanges flowed to the national level system consisting of NSE and BSE.

Investor Protection

66

The most vital problem spotted is of ignorance. Investors should be made aware of the benefits. Nobody will invest until and unless he is fully convinced. Investors should be made to realize that ignorance is no longer bliss and what they are losing by not investing. Mutual funds offer a lot of benefit which no other single option could offer. But most of the people are not even aware of what actually a mutual fund is? They only see it as just another investment option. So the advisors should try to change their mindsets. The advisors should target for more and more young investors. Young investors as well as persons at the height of their career would like to go for advisors due to lack of expertise and time. The advisors may try to highlight some of the value added benefits of Mutual funds such as tax benefit, rupee cost averaging, and systematic transfer plan, rebalancing etc. these benefits are not offered by other options single-handedly. So these are enough to drive the investors towards mutual funds. Investors could also try to increase the spectrum of services offered. Now the most important reason for not availing the services of advisors was spotted was being expensive. The advisors should try to charge a nominal fee at the beginning.

With the globalize economy and immense competition among countries for faster development of their respective economies, the significance of Mutual Funds and Foreign investment has taken manifold. With a buoyant vibrant and experienced stock market, India today is looking ahead to surpass China in terms of foreign Investment and growth prospects. Stock exchange being the barometer of the economy plays a vital role in showcasing growth of an economy and luring investment. While studying the role of Mutual fund and FIIs in Stock Market, I discussed with a few persons who are into stock broking business. And the information they have provided shows that though the investment and participation of domestic investors are rising, still, they have not been able to prove themselves to be as influential as mutual funds and FIIs. Importance and the role of Mutual funds and FIIs play in the Indian stock market can be seen from the fact that the recent surge in Sensex and NIFTY is attributed to the active participation of FIIs in the Stock Market. Despite being aware of the Asian economic crisis where FIIs role was of a major concern, the importance of foreign capital in the development of economy can not be undermined in anyway.
