Franklin India Prima Fund

There's something to be said for this fund that has weathered four market cycles over two decades, always staying two paces ahead of its benchmark as well as peers. What we like about this fund is its ability to deliver impressive returns over really long period without taking on outsized risks or playing every market move. This shows up in its 10-year CAGR of 20.5 per cent, which means that every R10,000 invested in this fund has grown to over R64,000 in ten years.

The fund's enviable long term record is mainly due to its relentless focus on the quality of stocks that enter its portfolio and its genuinely long-term orientation (portfolio turnover at 17 per cent). Investments are in companies that can generate strong free cash flows over an entire business cycle of 5-7 years. In terms of market cap bias, this fund has consistently remained overweight in mid-caps relative to its category in recent years, holding lower large- and small-caps than its peers.

Stock selection is based on the company's return on capital, capital intensity and history of sharing its surpluses with minority shareholders. As quality can be an issue in the mid-cap space, companies with high debt or run-ins with regulators or the tax man are studiously avoided. "There are phases in the market when poor quality business might go up sharply, and at such times this fund might under-perform. However, our approach to stick to quality stocks reduces volatility through different market cycles," says fund manager R. Janakiraman.

The fund has a pretty impressive track record of sharply outperforming its benchmark during bullish phases and containing downside well during bear phases. The only exception to this was in the period from 2006 to 2008 when the fund's performance faltered. Since 2009, the fund has made a strong comeback, with a 60 per cent cumulative out-performance of the index, reflected in its consistent 4- or 5-star rating. Conservative investors who like to participate in the mid-cap opportunity without taking on too much risk should invest in it.

Should you Roll Over 1 year Fixed Maturity Plans?

The period between January and March typically sees an uptick in the launch of fixed maturity plans, or FMPs. Not this year. Instead, fund houses are busy rolling over or extending the tenure of their one- year FMPs launched last year to three years. Investors in one- year FMPs have a choice. Either redeem units or roll over to three years. If you exit now, your gains will be added to your income and taxed in line with your individual slab rate of 10, 20 or 30 per cent. If you stay invested for two more years, you pay 20 per cent tax with indexation benefit. Yields have softened in the past few months on expectations of a rate cut. If the central bank continues its soft monetary stance, yields are likely to fall further. In such a scenario, it makes sense for investors, particularly those in the 30 per cent tax bracket, to roll over their investments and lock in at a higher yield now. In a surprise move, the Reserve Bank of India cut repo rate by 25 basis

Mutual Fund Review: IDFC Premier Equity Fund

  IDFC Premier Equity Fund, which falls under the presumed high risk group of mid- and small-cap schemes, can rely on astute and timely equity picks. These make it less vulnerable to fluctuations compared with others in the category   IDFC Premier Equity Fund is designed to invest in upcoming, but promising businesses available at cheap valuations, and hold on to these businesses until they reap desired returns.
