Franklin India Smaller Companies Fund Online

Invest Franklin India Smaller Companies Fund Online
 The scheme aims to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in mid and small cap companies. Normally, it would invest atleast 75 per cent of its assets in smaller companies.
 

An ability to navigate volatile markets well and keep up a quality stock bias has helped this fund ascend from a four-star to a five-star rating in the last couple of years. This fund invests in stocks with a market cap below that of the 100th stock in the CNX 500 index. Like all Franklin equity schemes, the style is bottom-up and hunts for growth at a reasonable price. The manager looks for 'quality compounders' - companies which can compound their earnings at a high rate, with good return on capital, low capital intensity and capable management. Businesses that do not have the ability to generate free cash flows over a business cycle are avoided. So are those with poor return on capital and limited entry barriers.

 

The fund's one-year returns haven't been top of the charts, but the three- and five-year records more than make up for this. The fund outpaced the category by over 9 percentage points over 3 years and 6 percentage points over five years. Launched in the frothy markets of 2006, the fund delivered erratic returns until 2008, but has pulled up its socks thereafter. The fund took a bad knock in the 2008 meltdown but has weathered the last two bear phases (2011 and 2013) extremely well, doing far better than the benchmark and the peers.

 

Its conservative tendencies, both on business risks and valuations, may lead to missing out on short-term market moves. It's a good choice for investors looking for a less bumpy ride with small caps.

ULIP Review: ProGrowth Super II

  If you are interested in a death cover that's just big enough, HDFC SL ProGrowth Super II is something worth a try. The beauty is it has something for everybody — you name the risk profile, the category is right up there. But do a SWOT analysis of the basket, and the gloss fades     HDFC SL ProGrowth Super II is a type-II unit-linked insurance plan ( ULIP ). Launched in September 2010, this is a small ticket-size scheme with multiple rider options and adequate death cover. It offers five investment options (funds) — one in each category of large-cap equity, mid-cap equity, balanced, debt and money market fund.
