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.

Bear markets may kill, but bulls always return with vengeance

Average Gain Between Any Two Downturns Has Been 186% IF you have lost a fortune in shares by now, the best way to make it up perhaps could be by buying some more. Since the Great Depression of 1929, the world has undergone 12 major bear market phases. The average bear market has lasted about 22 months, and the market has fallen by an average of 51%. However, the average gain during the bull market between any two downturns has been an eye-popping 186%. The index here in question is the S&P 500. Bull markets — after every recessionary phase — have always been good for investors. All major bull rallies since end-1930 have resulted in markets gaining between 50-500%. Historic numbers show that the magnitude (size or breadth) of a bull market is much heavier than that of a bear market. The million dollar question is: Are we at the threshold of another bull market rally? Markets could go up intermittently, but convincing rallies will take time to happen. The current bear phase is...

Stick to Good Fund Manager who Can Multiply Your Investment

A manager may be the difference between the best and worst funds. Here's how you can find the right one    Does a mutual fund manager make a difference to your investment? The answer may not be as easy as you think, since most best-performing mutual funds have moved away from individualistic fund management to process-driven methods, limiting the scope of an individual's role in investment decisions. In fact, many fund managers would speak at length about how the "system" their fund house has in place makes their task of picking stocks easy even though it restricts their freedom. Still, the question is important, especially after recent reports that the Securities and Exchange Board of India ( Sebi ) may ask fund managers to disclose to investors their track record of managing money. Let us take a look at the universe of large-cap funds over the past five years. According to Value Research, an independent mutual fund tracking firm, the topper in the category is DSP...

NRIs and direct taxes code (DTC)

DTC Proposes To Do Away With Special Provision That Allows NRIs Liberalised Duration Of Stay In Country      THE new direct taxes code could bring a large number of global Indians under the tax net, as it does away with a provision that allowed individuals to escape tax in any country citing double tax avoidance.    The new legislation, introduced in Parliament on Monday, says an individual shall be a resident of India in any financial year if he is in the country for more than 59 days in that year, and has been has been India for more 365 days in four preceding financial years. A number of Indian industrialists including Vedanta's Anil Agarwal and Essar's Ravi Ruia have acquired non-resident status over the years.    The DTC has only attempted to clean up the provision in line with the laws globally. A phrase "being outside India" in the existing income tax law exempted individuals who stay outside the country for six months from paying taxes. This was prone ...
