  3. Abstract:
     This study has made an attempt to measure the relative performance of mutual fund dividend and growth plan under balanced category for the year 2009 to 2012 using the non parametric approach (Data Envelopment Analysis).To better evaluate performance the new risk measures value at risk and conditional value at risk have been included as the input variable apart from the standard deviation of return, residual return and imputed cost. While the annual return and residual returns are considered as output variables. The result showed that the overall performance of both types of funds has increased over a period of time and some of the firms remained 100% efficient throughout the period of study. The study has implications for both investors and managers, as investors can choose the fund found to be consistently 100% efficient through the period of study while managers of inefficient funds can identify the source of inefficiency and improve them to become 100% efficient.
