Analysis As on Dec 23, 2013

 

The fund behaves like a dynamic bond fund with the fund manager changing the average maturity as per his conviction.

 

Strategy
The primary objective is to generate a steady stream of income through investments in fixed income securities. Ideally, for a time horizon of 6 months to 3 years.

 

It is a scheme designed for investors seeking regular returns in the form of dividends or capital appreciation. Investing in capital bonds and debentures, the scheme has an active management style that emphasises quality of debt, tapping opportunities from interest rate changes and deriving maximum value by targeting undervalued sectors. It strives to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns by actively managing a portfolio of high quality fixed income securities.

The fund has increased its average maturity in the last two years and currently it is around 5 years. Its expense ratio has usually been on the higher side and within the range of 1.25 per cent to 2.25 per cent. Currently, it is around 1.92 per cent.

 

Performance
It has outperformed its category average 10 out of 16 times. In the past 3 years it has performed better than its peers. Its year-to-date return of 11.98 per cent is also higher than the category average return of 9.96 per cent.

 

Its best performance was in the year 2009 when it was ranked 9th out of 63 funds as it was one of the few funds to deliver positive returns. The fund was also part of the top quartile in 2011 as well as 2012.

 

Why invest?
The fund has changed its average maturity as per the fund manager's conviction. As its name suggests, the fund has build wealth for its investors with it earning a return of nine per cent since its launch. It has outperformed most of its peers in recent times.

Debt Mutual Fund Dividends are Taxable

DDT is deducted when a non-equity fund declares dividends. Equity and balanced fund dividends are tax-free The AMC is correct to deduct the dividend distribution tax (DDT) as it is mandated by tax laws. DDT in mutual funds is deducted every time a non-equity fund declares dividends. Equity fund and balanced fund dividends are tax-free . It is possible that you have invested in a non-equity fund for the first time or have received the dividend under a non-equity fund for the first time. That is why this is the first occasion when you have come across DDT.   The rate at which non-equity schemes deduct DDT has also gone up after the July 2014 budget. This is due to a change in calculation methodology. Earlier, if the fund has to declare a dividend of R 100, it used to make a provision for R 128.3, paying R 28.3 to the taxman and distributing the balance to the investor. This allowed the investor to bear less tax since the effective tax rate was 22.07 per ce...
