Franklin India Taxshield Fund

 

Invest Franklin India Taxshield Fund Online

 The scheme seeks medium to long term growth of capital, with income tax rebate. The scheme invests in equities and there is an exposure to PSU Bonds and debentures and Money Market instruments.
 

A fund which has stayed determinedly large-cap tilted, even in a category crowded with multi-cap funds, Franklin India Taxshield has delivered good-enough returns to retain four- to five-star ratings for much of the last eight years. The fund's year-to-year returns don't always beat its more aggressive peers, but its performance adds up to very handsome returns over the long term. A fund which allocates a minimum 60 per cent of its portfolio to large caps, it has pegged up this exposure even higher, to 75 per cent in the last one year. Mid and small caps now make up a fourth of the portfolio, shielding the fund from any valuation meltdown in this segment of the market. The fund also avoids momentum stocks and sticks to bottom-up fundamentals-based investing. Though this fund is from a growth-style fund house, it tends to be quite valuation conscious. The fund doesn't take cash calls and remains fully invested through cycles.

Outpacing the benchmark in 12 of the last 15 years, this fund has proved more adept at containing losses in bear markets than in really acing its peers in runaway bull phases. The last two years, however, have seen the fund widen its outperformance vis-a-vis the benchmark and the category. The fund's bottom-up picks in automobiles and ancillaries, ports and pharma may explain part of this, as also its underweight positions in PSU banks, metals and energy.

It's a top choice for risk-averse investors seeking ELSS benefits.

Mutual Fund Reivew: Birla Sun Life Asset Allocation Conservative

Birla Sun Life Asset Allocation Conservative has numbers on its side to prove its credibility… Don't be surprised to find this Fund of Funds ( FoF ) in our recommendations. It has earned its place. And despite the difference in the structure of the product, there is no arguing with the numbers.   Of the total 6 years of its existence, the fund has been among the top 10 funds in its category in four of them. Last year it put up an average show and the only year it underperformed its peers was in 2008.   One aspect to look at when investing in an FoF is the expense ratio. The expense ratio of an FoF is capped at a lower limit of 0.75 per cent (2.50% for an actively managed fund). However, the FoF not only has its own expense (though lower) but even the expense ratio of the fund it is investing into. Fortunately, the fund manager takes that into account. "Expense is one of the important criteria used for fund selection and is the main reason for our investment in BSL Ind...

Short-Term Investment Options in Mutual Funds

Mutual funds offer liquid funds and ultra short term funds in the debt category, which are suitable for short investment periods. Ultra short-term funds were earlier known as liquid plus funds. Liquid funds invest in money market instruments with a maturity of 91 days or less. However, there are no such restrictions for ultra short-term funds. Who should invest in these? These are open-ended schemes. Investors with a short investment horizon or with surplus cash and low risk appetite should look at these. These could include corporate as well as retail investors. Those interested in staying invested for less than 15 days can opt for liquid funds. Retail investors who want to remain invested for two-four months, can look at ultra short-term funds. The short duration for both liquid and ultra short-term funds shields them from any interest rate volatility.   What kind of returns do they offer? In terms of an investment period less than 15 days, these funds are comparable to a ba...
