Although gold prices are at present hovering near their all-time high in the Indian market, investors are heaping-up gold in their portfolio. But interestingly, it is not physical gold which they are heaping-up, instead it is Gold ETFs (GETFs), in which they are evincing interest into.

Ever since the worries of Euro zone debt crisis have gripped the global economy, investors in India too are taking refuge under the precious yellow metal (through GETFs) due to its trait of being a safe haven. This is clear depicted by the ascending trend of the chart above where Assets Under Management (AUM) of GETFs, have swelled from Rs 4,800 crore of AUM in April 2011, the AUM under GETFs have risen to Rs 10,312 crore.

We believe that the rising trend in GETFs indicates that wisdom is dawning upon investors in India, as they have shown preference to invest in gold the smart way.

We are of the view that exposure to gold (through GETFs) should be an integral part of one’s portfolio and can help in diversification. This is because of negative correlation which gold has with other assets like equity – especially during uncertain times. Given the gloom clouds surrounding the global economy due to the burgeoning debt crisis in the Euro zone and slump in economic growth across economies, we think that one should continue to invest in gold, as the secular uptrend appears intact. Yes, any temporary relief measures taken by the Euro zone, like the famous bailout packages may bring in some consolidation in the gold prices but unless a long term solution is chalked out by the Euro region, gold will continue to outperform other asset classes. In our view, one should always have a minimum of 5% – 10% allocation to gold and invest in it with a long- term investment horizon of 10 to 20 years.

If you do not wish to open a demat account, you can invest through a gold fund of fund (FoF). Such a fund just invests in the open-ended Gold ETF with the advantage of not needing a demat account.

Modern day balanced mutual fund approach

Buy Gold Mutual Funds Invest Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India)   In reality, most balanced funds have a strong tilt towards equity instead of a mix of equity and debt THERE are various types of mutual funds available to investors with specific features. Often investors have a particular idea about a specific type of funds in terms of their features and risks, but that is not what is actually available. Therefore, it is necessary for an investor to understand the actual position before picking up a fund. This requires some work on the part of the investor. One example can be the situation with balanced funds. Name is not representative: One of the first things that an investor has to understand is that the name of the fund is often not representative of its investment pattern. The name often represents only the aim of the fund, and not what it actually is.

How Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) works?

    THE tax season is here. And if you are an employee you can't blame your employer for deducting large chunks of money from your salary towards tax deducted at source ( TDS ), which he is legally obliged to do. Your bank will also deduct some percentage from your FD interest of Rs 10,000 or more towards TDS! So what is this TDS all about? How is it computed? Are there any changes this year? Read on... What is TDS? TDS reduces your taxable income and could even provide tax relief! The TDS collections account for 40 percent of the total taxes collected in the country. As the name suggests TDS is the amount of tax that is deducted at source in certain types of income . The TDS thus collected is deposited in the Government treasury within a specified time. How is it computed? Some of the types of income where TDS is applicable include salary, interest, rental fee, interest on securities, insurance commission, dividends from shares and UTI/Mutual Funds, commission and brokerage

What is price deflator?

What is price deflator? A defaltor is used to restate data measured over time to prices prevailing at a particular period or time to make it comparable. Essentially, a deflator removes the effect of inflation from the data. What is the role of price deflator in GDP calculations? Prices are continuously in a state of flux, but generally trend upwards over time. Therefore, even without an increase in the quantity of goods and services produced by an economy, price increase can give the impression of an increase in the gross domestic product, or GDP, the benchmark indicator of economic activity. Therefore, the impact of prices has to be removed at arrive at a true measure of the value of goods and services produced, or real economic growth.
