Although gold prices are at present hovering near their all-time high in the Indian market, investors are heaping-up gold in their portfolio. But interestingly, it is not physical gold which they are heaping-up, instead it is Gold ETFs (GETFs), in which they are evincing interest into.

Ever since the worries of Euro zone debt crisis have gripped the global economy, investors in India too are taking refuge under the precious yellow metal (through GETFs) due to its trait of being a safe haven. This is clear depicted by the ascending trend of the chart above where Assets Under Management (AUM) of GETFs, have swelled from Rs 4,800 crore of AUM in April 2011, the AUM under GETFs have risen to Rs 10,312 crore.

We believe that the rising trend in GETFs indicates that wisdom is dawning upon investors in India, as they have shown preference to invest in gold the smart way.

We are of the view that exposure to gold (through GETFs) should be an integral part of one’s portfolio and can help in diversification. This is because of negative correlation which gold has with other assets like equity – especially during uncertain times. Given the gloom clouds surrounding the global economy due to the burgeoning debt crisis in the Euro zone and slump in economic growth across economies, we think that one should continue to invest in gold, as the secular uptrend appears intact. Yes, any temporary relief measures taken by the Euro zone, like the famous bailout packages may bring in some consolidation in the gold prices but unless a long term solution is chalked out by the Euro region, gold will continue to outperform other asset classes. In our view, one should always have a minimum of 5% – 10% allocation to gold and invest in it with a long- term investment horizon of 10 to 20 years.

If you do not wish to open a demat account, you can invest through a gold fund of fund (FoF). Such a fund just invests in the open-ended Gold ETF with the advantage of not needing a demat account.

BHIM App

What is BHIM? BHIM stands for Bharat Interface for Money , which is an easy way of transferring money from one bank account to an other via a smartphone using the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) platform . It is an instant payments application meant for sending money as well as requesting for payments. How is it different from UPI? BHIM is no different than UPI.

NPS for Tax Saving

The NPS is a great way to save tax if you don't mind locking in your money till you retire. Till last year, the taxability of the NPS was a big issue. But last year's Budget changed the rules and made 40% of the corpus tax free. The PFRDA wants that the balance 60% to be exempt from tax as well. The emphasis is on increasing pension coverage. So, allowing EEE status (to NPS ) is our major demand (in the Budget NPS is especially useful for investors who may have exhausted the `1.5 lakh investment limit under Section 80C but want to save more.   Another way the NPS can cut tax is by rejigging the salary.If a company deposits up to 10% of the basic salary of an employee in the NPS under Section 80CCD(2d), the amount will be tax free. Turn to page 28 to see how much tax this can save. However, the take-home pay of the employee will come down. Invest Rs 1,50,000 and Save Tax upto Rs 46,350 under Section 80C.

Retirement planning from a long-term perspective

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds     `HOW green was my valley'. This title comes from a movie I had watched many years ago. A little boy's journey into adulthood and the story of a Welsh valley's turn of-the-century descent from pristine paradise to despoiled coal mining.   I thought of the title because it is comparatively reflective of a person's life ­ the glorious years when he is earning and the sun down years when he is not having his regular job and, hence, his living standards comes down. The reason is a combination of things. Inflation of food items, transport, increase in health related costs in the later years of life and increase in expenses in almost all basic amenities of life. In India, the social security system is almost non-existent. In some states, wherever it is available, the scales of benefits are extremely modest...

BIRLA SUN LIFE MIDCAP Fund

BIRLA SUN LIFE MIDCAP Fund Online This fund suffered an extended lean patch after the 2008 financial crisis but, of late, it has shown signs of improvement in its performance. It is biased towards mid-caps but takes a sizeable exposure to large caps. The fund is very conscious of the risk involved in playing this segment and has a conservative approach. It strictly avoids concentration risk and runs a highly diversified portfolio that does not allow large positions even in its top stock picks. The fund manager, at times, gives higher importance to macro factors in portfolio construction than company specifics, often drilling down to sub-sectors for finding opportunities. The approach is yet to be fully tested, so investors should wait and see how the performance pans out over the next year or more.
