Tata Pure Equity Fund

Earlier known as Tata Twin Option (Equity), the scheme aims at medium to long term capital growth, with 100 per cent investments in the equity of large-cap, liquid blue-chip companies.

 

With predictability as its middle name; Tata Pure Equity has been consistently rated between 3 and 4-star in the Value Research ratings for the last ten years. The fund has outperformed the benchmark almost every year in the last decade, that too with a low risk score.

But the degree of out-performance has never been high with 5-year returns beating the index only by 2 per cent. The consistency comes at a cost, as the fund doesn't seem geared to make the most of bull markets.

The return profile of Tata Pure Equity Fund is sufficient to drive home the point that this is one fund which prefers safety to aggression. The fund had a wavering strategy in the initial years, with mid-cap allocations swinging between 15 and 50 per cent up to the end of 2009. But it has acquired the character of a true large-cap fund from 2010.

Mid-caps have been scaled down to sub-10 per cent since 2013. Apart from a preference for giant caps, the fund runs a diversified portfolio with 35-40 stocks, a sizeable number given its modest assets of R704 crore. The fund's top holdings are mostly drawn from the Nifty or Sensex basket with sector weights also not straying much from the benchmark.

The fund has trailed its benchmark only in four of the 16 years that it has been in existence, a notable achievement. It has proved a good fund to own in falling markets, losing much less value than peers or the indices in 2008 and 2011.

But the fund doesn't manage to beat the indices by a big margin during the tear-away bull phases. In 2007, the fund's 61 per cent return placed it in the middle of its category. In 2009, the fund actually trailed the index with a 77 per cent return.

Performance in the last one year has also been not too hot, with the gain of 44 per cent lagging the category gain of 47 per cent. If predictability is what you prefer over chart-busting performance, this fund is a good long-term bet.

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 ...

How to gauge the risk profile of your mutual fund portfolio?

MUTUAL funds are considered to be an investment option for those who do not generally devote a lot of time to monitoring and managing their portfolios. Investors experience both good as well as tough times as far as mutual fund investments are concerned. But while evaluating the portfolio of their equity mutual fund holdings there are a few points that one should check to know about the level of risk that they are facing. Often there are situations where there is a higher risk than what was estimated initially. Here are a few ways to evaluate various risk levels. Individual holding exposure : The portfolio of the equity fund where one has invested or plans to invest needs to be scrutinised to see whether the risk levels are such that could lead to a larger volatility in the holdings. Depending upon this factor and the risk taking ability of the investor the choice about a particular fund as an investment should be made. One key point to watch out is whether there is a large ex...

Health insurance guide - Part I

Insurance, by definition, is morbid. What if I die suddenly? What if my home caught fire? What if I had to undergo expensive medical treatment? What if something that I thought happened only to others befell me? Insurers, who work with large samples, calculate the probability of such an event and, hence, the possibility of them having to pay out a sum of money to mitigate, to the extent possible, the effects of that disaster. However, the possibility of you undergoing some kind of expensive medical treatment during your lifetime is far more likely than you dying suddenly or your house burning down. Given that costs at private healthcare facilities, where you are most likely to land up, is high, and, doubling every four years 10 months or so, the rest of your money life could easily go out of whack if you had to incur such expenses. Just 12 per cent of India's population is covered with some sort of health insurance. Pared to the bone, for a comparatively small price, health insu...
