Advantages Drawbacks Risk-return profile Suitability for investors Preferred investment duration
Index funds Track a key stock market index, like BSE Sensex or Nifty. Their portfolio mirrors the benchmark index both in terms of composition and individual stock weightages. A convenient way of investing in equity index. Since it is more of a passive strategy of portfolio management, the returns are highly linked with index returns. In India, active funds offer higher risk-adjusted returns than index funds. Low risk-return profile amongst equity funds. Suitable for investors who wants to earn index linked returns. Equity index investing should preferably be for long-term.
Dividend yield funds Similar to the equity diversified funds except that they invest in companies offering high dividend yields. Since dividend yield stocks are less volatile such funds are associated with low level of risk. Less risky than a diversified equity fund. As appreciation in the value of a dividend yield stock is not very high, these funds offer lower return than equity diversified funds. Low risk-return profile compared to equity diversified fund. Apt for conservative equity investor. Long term horizon is preferred (at least 3 years)

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

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.
