There are no tax benefits, under equity linked savings scheme (ELSS), for this fund's investors

FEATURES & NFO PERIOD:

 

 The Union KBC Trigger Fund-Series 1 (UKTFS1) is a three-year tenured close-ended equity fund, which will open for public subscription on October 14 and close on October 25.

Thereafter, being a close-ended fund, it does not reopen for continuous purchases and redemptions.

There are no tax benefits, under equity linked savings scheme (ELSS), for this fund's investors.

UNIQUE FEATURES:

 

As the word `trigger' in the name suggests UKTFS1 will prematurely close the fund if the net asset value of the fund touches Rs 13 (face value of a unit being Rs 10), anytime from allotment date to its three-year later maturity date in October 2016. In other words, a 30 per cent appreciation before maturity date will trigger a premature end to the close-ended fund. The exact premature redemption date, in the event of Rs 13 NAV getting triggered, will not be the exact trigger date, but will be the 10th working day from it. This is to enable the fund manager to liquidate all the holdings.

ASSET ALLOCATION & BENCHMARK:

 

UKT FS1's scheme informa tion document states it will invest 80-100 per cent in equities, a pre dominant part of which will be in BSE 200 index constituent-stocks. It can also deploy up to 20 per cent in debt and money market securities. Benchmark index will be BSE 200.

Though UKTFS1 is a first-of-its-kind equity fund, the value-add being offered, that of a 30 per cent trigger is not great in the sense of offering a compelling reason for an investor in putting his money in it.


Most online equity trading portals and mutual fund transaction portals offer their clients the feature of client-fixed price alerts. These alerts enable every investor to sell his holdings if he thinks his desired objective is fulfilled, and these can vary from investor to investor as per the investors' chosen preferences. There is nothing sacrosanct in a 30 per cent trigger, which UKTFS1 is offering. Moreover, since it is close-ended, a falling NAV will not enable investors to opt out before the three-year period is over. But if an online fund transaction portal gives you alerts or even trigger-based trade facility, then you can be invested in an openended equity fund and opt out both ways, when the NAV is rising or falling. With respect to past performance track record of the AMC, its sole open-ended diversified Union KBC equity fund has not fared greatly.


As of October 9, the scheme ranked 26th, and 27th, in one-year, and two-year, returns among 58 diversified open-ended large-cap equity funds.

Gold: What Can Trigger the Inevitable?

A stronger dollar or rising interest rates could derail the epic yellow metal mania   Before you sell that last piece of jewellery, keep in mind that the gold price will not go up indefinitely. There are number of reasons why it might crash. If you're over weighted in gold or commodities, the warning is the same: A stronger dollar, strengthening US economy or rising interest rates could derail the epic yellow metal mania. Who knows? Congress could even reach an agreement to clear up its balance sheet and pay down its debt. What are the chances of any of this happening? It's beyond the limits of my minuscule, clouded crystal ball, which is about the size of a pin-head.   Nevertheless, you should prepare your portfolio for any number of eventualities, which can be easily accomplished with exchange-traded funds. Gold is troublesome in my book because it really isn't an investment. It's a reserve currency of sorts that's heavily traded by institutional investor...

What is Statutory Liquidity Ratio - SLR?

Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Buy Gold Mutual Funds Leave a missed Call on 94 8300 8300 What is Statutory Liquidity Ratio - SLR ?   Last week, the RBI cut statutory liquidity ratio ( SLR ) by half a percentage point to 22.5%, effective June 14. By this, the central bank intends to release additional money into the banking system. SLR is the amount of funds that every commercial bank should have either through its holdings in government approved bonds and securities, gold or a combination of these assets. This is another way of ensuring enough liquidity for each bank before they lend to customers. By reducing SLR, the RBI released another half a percentage point of commercial banks' total deposits (in banking parlance, total demand and time liabilities that include FDs, savings and current accounts) to be free ...

Market Pre-open session - How It works and Its benefits

   With an intention to reduce volatility in various scrips at the opening of the markets, and to arrive at the ideal opening price of a scrip, the exchanges have introduced a call auction process in the pre-open session from October 18.    The pre-open session is a new innovation to arrive at the ideal opening price of a scrip for the current trading session. The session intends to reduce volatility in the beginning of a day. Under this new arrangement, an exchange will collect orders for the first few minutes of this session. On the basis of orders received, it will arrive at the opening price and match the tradable orders to that price. The remaining orders will be moved to the normal trading session.    The call auction process will be initially introduced for scrips forming part of Nifty and Sensex, and trading in other scrips and F&O contracts will only begin at 9:15 am when normal market trading begins. Orders not will get traded during the order entry period in the pre-...

ASBA Option for Initial Public Offer (IPO)

IPO (initial public offering) applicants, particularly the unsuccessful ones, often have to face a double whammy of sorts. On the one hand they fail to get allotment of shares and on the other, they lose out on the interest during the period their money is locked —that is, if they have opted for the traditional method of issuing cheques for depositing the application money. However, if they choose the ASBA (Application Supported by Blocked Amount) facility, they can circumvent this problem. But do note that you cannot decide to make two applications – one by way of cheque payment and the other through ASBA. If you do so, it could be rejected on the grounds that it constitutes multiple applications. Introduced by Securities and Exchange Board of India ( Sebi ) in 2008, using ASBA has become mandatory for all non-retail investors. Retail investors, though, continue to have the option of choosing between the old and new mechanisms. However, it is in your interest to opt for ASBA. He...
