The sample size is very less, hence the responses of just
100 respondents does not imply for the complete
population.
There was lack of time and resources that prevented from
carrying out an in depth study.
The findings of the survey are based on the subjective
opinion of the respondents and there is no way of
assessing truth of the statements.
There is some respondent’s bias which cannot be
removed.
Lastly, some amount of error exists in the data filling
process because of the following reasons:
Influence of others.
Misunderstanding of the concept.
Hurried filling of the questionnaire.
It is advised that those investors who are not very familiar
with the stock market should not invest directly rather go
through mutual funds route.
As per the report Sundram Finance Group Shares 14 % of
the market share, a fair portion in the market but need to
emphasize more on the advertisement so as to generate
awareness among the mass and for better market share.
Sundram Finance Group excels in tax saver funds and since
tax saver funds are sold much in market as compared to
others, so need to give special attention to raise the sales
and income.
Some effective steps are needed to be taken to approach
new customers rather than on counting those previously
enrolled with the organization.
