Gifting Stocks and Funds

Best SIP Funds to Invest Online 



You can gift shares by transferring them directly to the recipient's demat account. Fill up the delivery instruction slip mentioning the name and demat account number of the recipient and the scrips to be transferred. The execution date must be mentioned. The recipient in turn has to fill out a receipt instruction with relevant details and submit it to his depository participant. 

The shares received from your depository participant will be credited to his demat account once the receipt instruction is received. Since shares are movable property, it is not mandatory to execute a gift deed. However, to create a legal record, it is best to execute a gift deed on an appropriate stamp paper. If the shares are in physical certificate form, a share transfer deed will have to be executed and sent to the registrar of the company. 

The procedure for gifting mutual funds is a little different. Unlike shares, mutual fund units cannot be simply transferred from one person to another, except on demise of the unit-holder. Also, mutual funds don't accept payments from third-parties. One cannot invest in a mutual fund using a cheque issued by another person. 

However, third-party payments are accepted by mutual funds in case of payment on behalf of a minor. So, parents, grandparents and other immediate family members can invest via mutual funds in the name of minor children. But there are a few restrictions: The donor has to submit a declaration, specifying details of bank account from which payment will be made and the relationship with the minor. This will need to be signed by the legal guardian of the minor.

Mutual Fund Review: Taurus Tax Shield

    Taurus Tax Shield has seen a turnaround in performance since 2007, but still remains a volatile offering… The fund has seen a turnaround in its performance since 2007 and has delivered impressively during market rallies since then. The portfolio is also more diversified. It contained its downfall to an average level in 2008 but is still one of the most volatile offerings in this category. Bold investors can look at this fund.   Strategy The fund manager invests across the market capitalisation and sectors. The selection of stocks is made on the basis of long-term business prospects and value creation. Fund Insight Launched in March 1996, the fund was a laggard with just two annual outperformances. Concentrated stock bets and high exposure to mid and small caps led to it being hit harder during market downturns. The number of stocks in the portfolio never exceeded 20 and it was not rare to see the top 5 holdings account for around 60 per cent of the portfolio. After b...

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...
