Since the opening up of the economy in the early 1990s, Indian mutual fund industry has witnessed fabulous quantitative growth. Funds which invest a larger proportion of their corpus in companies with large market capitalization are called large cap funds. Actively managed funds make use of a human element, such as a single manager, comanagers or a team of managers, to actively manage a fund's portfolio. The main objective of the study is to analyse the performance of select actively managed large cap equity funds in the line of risk-return parameters. This study is based on fourteen funds from twelve Asset Management Companies. All the funds are ranked under seven performance measures, namely, fund return, fund standard deviation, Sharpe Ratio, Treynor Ratio, return from systematic investment plan (SIP), Jensen Alpha, and RSQ, for five different time periods of 1-year, 3-year, 5-year, 7-year, and 10-year.

The mutual fund industry in India has registered significant growth since the liberalization of Indian Economy in 1991 and has emerged as a significant financial intermediary.The growing importance of Indian mutual funds may be noted in terms of the increased mobilization of funds and the increasing number of schemes and investors in the industry.The results show that there is a significant association between educational qualification of the investors and the risk tolerance level and occupation of the investors and the risk tolerance level.The results further indicate that there is no significant association between occupation of the investors and the level of knowledge of mutual fund and monthly savings of the investors and the level of knowledge of mutual fund.Therefore, the investors have to consider the prevailing rate of risk free returns and to compare the fund returns with it. Based on this the selection of schemes and the choice of investment avenues can be decided.Due to the fund man timing skill,stock selection ability,imperfect diversification the schemes had suffered with low return. Hence to increase the fund return the concerned fund managers have to improve all these skills.
