IDFC Tax Advantage (ELSS) Fund

Posted: 25 Feb 2015 04:01 AM PST

The scheme seeks to build a diversified portfolio comprising of stocks of companies with strong fundamentals that are available at reasonable valuations. The scheme can be fully into equities (and equity related securities) and upto 20% in debt & money market instruments.
 

A slow starter, this fund has become a steady performer generating five-year annualised returns of 16 per cent, ahead of its benchmark by 6.1 per cent points. It has given a return of 43.5 per cent in the last year, beating its benchmark by 5.8 per cent points. A slow starter, it has since proved its credential as a dependable player with a steady returns of 15 per cent. It outperformed both the category and benchmark in 2013.

A small-sized fund, it actively manages its investments in large-, mid- and small-cap stocks. It has actively increased its focus on mid-cap stocks in the last two years and increased the allocation to almost 40 per cent, consistently higher than its category. The strategy may have helped it perform better in the current rally, but it can also backfire when the market enters a lacklustre phase. Probably, this is the reason why the fund has taken a defensive position in sector choices lately.

The investment strategy of the fund is to invest in well-managed companies with growth potential that are available at reasonable value. Companies are selected after a systematic process of forecasting earnings based on their industry growth potential and interaction with the company managements.

Though it may not figure at the top of the ELSS list, it is a good choice for investors looking for consistent returns. The fund has also proved its ability to thrive in sideways market and contain the downside in bad market conditions.

Using SIPs

Posted: 25 Feb 2015 03:46 AM PST

Investment professionals and fund industry veterans say that, to inculcate investing discipline, nothing matches systematic investment plans (SIPs) by MFs. For those who are used to putting their money in bank FDs and RDs, SIPs are the equivalent of RDs but in the MF space. The other differentiators are that investments through SIPs in MFs may fetch you a return higher than RDs, and in some cases you can also enjoy tax benefits which are not available in RDs. But on the downside, unlike RDs, here you will not get any guaranteed return.

To start an SIP, you can either get in touch with your adviser, or approach a fund house directly . You will need to have a bank account. Then fill up a form for investing in the fund of your choice. You can opt for electronic clearance facility so that you will not need to write cheques for every investment, which could be every month or quarter.

Another advantage of in vesting through the SIP route is the rupee-cost averaging. As you invest a pre-set amount on a pre-fixed date of every month, you get more units of the fund when the net asset value (NAV) of the fund is low, while you get less of the same when the NAV is high. In this way , you average out the cost of acquisition of the fund units over the long term. You will not enjoy this benefit if you invest a lump sum into the same fund.

Action Plan:  Pre-define goals when you start investing

 Check your fund performance on a regular basis but definitely not daily or weekly h Be patient, give your investments time to grow
