Mutual Fund Review: Religare Tax Plan

Tax Plan is one of the better performing schemes from Religare Asset Management. Existing investors can redeem their investment after three years. But given the scheme's performance, they can continue to stay invested Given the mandated lock-in period of three years, tax saving schemes give the fund manager the leeway to invest in ideas that may take time to nurture. Religare Tax Plan's investment ideas revolve around 'High Growth', which the fund manager has aimed to achieve by digging out promising stories/businesses in the mid-cap segment. Within the space, consumer staples has been the centre of attention for the last couple of years and can be seen as one of the key reasons for the scheme's outperformance as compared to the broader market. It has, however, tweaked its focus and reduced exposure in midcaps as they were commanding a high premium. The strategy seems to have worked as it returned a 22% gain last year. Religare Tax Plan has outperformed BSE 100...

Mutual Fund Review: L&T MIP

This fund won't deliver chart-topping returns. However, over the long run it will not disappoint and end up beating the category average The fund has seen numerous changes at the helm. When Katare took over in October 2007, he made dramatic alterations to the portfolio. On the equity side, he increased the number of stocks to 11 (November) from 2 (September). On the debt side, he added Certificates of Deposit (CDs), while earlier Treasury Bills (T-Bills) and cash accounted for 88 per cent (September 2007) of the portfolio. In November 2007 he exited T-Bills for good. The results impressed. In the last quarter of 2007, it delivered 12.83 per cent (category average: 6.12%). In 2008, the first quarter performance was nothing short of impressive, a return of 9.93 per cent (category average: -3.97%). While other players increased their portfolio maturity, Katare maintained a low maturity profile. While the average maturity of the category was 2.81 years that quarter, th...

Reconfigure investments to reap benefits in DTC

Investing for tax benefits under the new Direct Taxes Code ( DTC ) will be different in several ways from what taxpayers are familiar with right now. This will require some reconfiguration in the nature of investments for the investor and they need to be ready to tackle the changes that will come about once the new DTC is implemented from financial year 2012-13.One area of interest for most taxpayers is the manner in which they can extract the maximum tax benefit. Here is a look at the situation and also how it changes from the existing position. Basic deduction: At present, there is a deduction of Rs 1 lakh that is available for an individual when they make investments under specified areas such as provident fund, public provident fund, national savings certificates, equity linked savings scheme and insurance premium, among others. This benefit is available under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. This has been replaced by a new Section 68 under the DTC where there is a deduct...

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund scheme seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio that is investing in equities and related securities as well as fixed income and money market securities. The approximate allocation to equity would be in the range of 60-80 per cent with a minimum of 51 per cent, and the approximate debt allocation is 40-49 per cent, with a minimum of 20 per cent. An impressive show in the last couple of years has propelled this fund from a three-star to a four-star rating. The fund has traditionally featured a high equity allocation, hovering at well over 70 per cent, which is higher than the allocations of the peers. But in the last one year, the allocation has been moderated from 78-79 per cent levels to 66-67 per cent of the portfolio. ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund appears to practise some degree of tactical allocation based on market valuations. Within equities, well over two-thirds of the allocation is parked i...
