IIFL Dynamic Bond Fund With the yields expected to harden, actively managed bond funds are a better bet among the available debt funds

IIFL Dynamic Bond Fund is an open ended income fund launched by India IIFL Mutual Fund. The new fund offer, which opened for subscription on June 6, closes on June 17.


INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: The scheme aims to generate long-term gains by investing in a range of debt and money market instruments of various maturities.


ASSET ALLOCATION: The fund will invest 100 per cent in debt papers of various maturities.


INVESTMENT STRATEGY: The focus will be on investment in high accrual short-term papers. Investments will also cover medium to long-term government securities and PSU bonds to bank on capital appreciation from falling interest rates.


PLANS & CHARGES: The scheme is available under regular plan and direct plan. The fund has three options available for investment -growth, dividend and bonus. There is no entry load, while an exit load of 0.50 per cent will be charged on exit before six months from the date of allotment. Annual recurring expenses levied could be as high as 2.75 per cent as per the scheme information document.

BENCHMARK: The performance will be benchmarked against Crisil Composite Bond Fund Index.

Being an actively managed fund, this product is appropriate for special situations like the one at present when a rally in yield in April and May is unlikely to continue further with expectations of RBI not indulging into further rate cut in next monetary policy review due to sharp depreciation in rupee in the first half of June. With the yields expected to harden, actively managed bond funds are a better bet among the debt funds available for investment. They can offer better returns than a regular income fund. However, there can be erratic returns among dynamic income funds compared with regular income funds. This is borned in an FC Research Bureau analysis of one-year returns based on June 13 net asset values of income funds from Capitaline NAV database.

Of 58 income funds, 23 funds whose names included any of the following words -dynamic, active, flexi, opportunities and strategic -were categorised as active income funds, while the rest, 35 funds, were considered as regular income funds. The average of one-year returns of dynamic bond funds was 12.1 per cent, higher than 11.9 per cent of regular income funds. But in terms of median of one-year returns, the regular category had a higher average, 12.3 per cent, compared with 12.0 per cent of dynamic category.

All about "Derivatives"

What are derivatives? Derivatives are financial instruments, which as the name suggests, derive their value from another asset — called the underlying. What are the typical underlying assets? Any asset, whose price is dynamic, probably has a derivative contract today. The most popular ones being stocks, indices, precious metals, commodities, agro products, currencies, etc. Why were they invented? In an increasingly dynamic world, prices of virtually all assets keep changing, thereby exposing participants to price risks. Hence, derivatives were invented to negate these price fluctuations. For example, a wheat farmer expects to sell his crop at the current price of Rs 10/kg and make profits of Rs 2/kg. But, by the time his crop is ready, the price of wheat may have gone down to Rs 5/kg, making him sell his crop at a loss of Rs 3/kg. In order to avoid this, he may enter into a forward contract, agreeing to sell wheat at Rs 10/ kg, right at the outset. So, even if the price of wheat falls ...

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund

 ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund scheme seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio that is investing in equities and related securities as well as fixed income and money market securities. The approximate allocation to equity would be in the range of 60-80 per cent with a minimum of 51 per cent, and the approximate debt allocation is 40-49 per cent, with a minimum of 20 per cent. An impressive show in the last couple of years has propelled this fund from a three-star to a four-star rating. The fund has traditionally featured a high equity allocation, hovering at well over 70 per cent, which is higher than the allocations of the peers. But in the last one year, the allocation has been moderated from 78-79 per cent levels to 66-67 per cent of the portfolio. ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund appears to practise some degree of tactical allocation based on market valuations. Within equities, well over two-thirds of the allocation is parked i...

Tax Planning: Income tax and Section 80C

In order to encourage savings, the government gives tax breaks on certain financial products under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. Investments made under such schemes are referred to as 80C investments. Under this section, you can invest a maximum of Rs l lakh and if you are in the highest tax bracket of 30%, you save a tax of Rs 30,000. The various investment options under this section include:   Provident Fund (PF) & Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF) Provident Fund is deducted directly from your salary by your employer.

You can also contribute additional amount through voluntary contributions (VPF). The current rate of interest is 8.5% per annum and interest earned is tax-free.

Fortis Mutual Fund

Fortis Mutual Fund, a relatively new player, it is still to prove its case and define its position in the industry. In September 2004, it came onto the scene with a bang - three debt schemes, one MIP and one diversified equity scheme. And investors flocked to it. Going by the standards at that time, it had a great start in terms of garnering money. Mopping up over Rs 2,000 crore in five schemes was not bad at all. The fund house has not been too successful in the equity arena, in terms of assets. Though it has seven equity schemes, it is debt and cash funds that corner the major portion of the assets. Most of the schemes are pretty new, and the two that have been around for a while have a 3-star rating each. The last two were Fortis Sustainable Development (April 2007), which received a rather poor response, and Fortis China India (October 2007). Fortis Flexi Debt has been one of the better performing funds, after a dismal performance in 2005. It currently has a 5-star rating. None ...
