Dear Shailesh,
Dividend should not be the only criteria while investing in a fund. In fact, Dividend is given out of the NAV itself, and the NAV falls to the extent of the Dividend Payout.
Escorts Opportunities Fund does not have a great track record in terms of returns. The fund is Balanced Fund and has given 11% over the past one year. the past 5 years track record has been decent. However you can consider investing in HDFC Prudence Fund which has a phenomenal record or UTI Mahila Unit Scheme (only the name is Mahila, but even males can invest).
Both these funds have a better track record and have given better returns.
BESt of luck,
Srikanth Shankar Matrubai...

good job, vvrk,
Great way to time pass and gain some knowledge also in the process. My all time favourite would be HDFC PRUDENCE FUND.
HDFC Prudence Fund has been a consistent performer throughout its long history. The fund has given the returns of a Diversified Equity Fund and most importantly, has managed to stem the fall in Bear Markets.
A "must have" in any portfolio.
Regards,
Srikanth Shankar Matrubai...

Thanks a lot Ranjan. It helps in this volatile market. So presently i have made gain but its loss for tax calculations. Too good...

It is on FIFO basis - you can show a short term loss.
If you sell the next 10 shares - you might get a short term gain.
You can adjust your short term loss against short term gain.
You pay tax only if you make a net gain.

Dear vvrk
My favourite fund is Magnum Contra. It is no longer a contra fund but it is a multi cap fund which is tilted towards large cap. I am continuing SIP in this fund for last 3 yrs.
Reliance Growth comes a close second.

Dear vvrk,
My Favourite Fund is Reliance Growth Fund Till NOW.
DSPML Equity Fund is also an EXCELLENT Fund.Other Favourite Funds are
Relaince RSF Equity, IDFC Premier Equity, DWS Investment Opportunity & HDFC GROWTH Fund.
I Expect Newly Launched Reliance Quant PLUS Fund ( Large Cap Oriented
wih Small AUM ) to be BEST Performer among Reliance Fund House in Coming year. I have started Fresh Investments in this Fund.

Though this fund is not rated and many say to avoid it, i have reaped more than 80% gain of my investment. Still the present value is above my investment value. Power sector will be the theme in the next 2-3 years. I strongly feel it as a part of every portfolio.
Anyone who doubts its performance in the future, can go for a SIP with a small amount and enjoy the jolly ride after 2-3 years.
cheers

An Article in INVESTOR INDIA Magzine(August 2008) mentions in short about
ASSET Allocation - CPPI Strategy.
It also mentions that 90% Wealth created is on account of Asset Allocation.
Can anyone throw more light on above.
Is there any book which deals about asset Allocation in Detail.
I am trying to evolve Asset Allocation Process for Mutual Funds & ULIPS Investments.

Dear vvrk,
I had also Invested in JM Equity & HDFC Taxsaver but Redeemed in Dec.2007 & April 2008.
There is no need to remain invested in POOR Performing Funds if their Performance continue below Average for more than 2-3 Quarters.
Among JM Funds JM CONTRA appears to be BETTER.
Among HDFC Funds HDFC GROWTH is BETTER.
Please Discontiue Further Investment & switch to better Performing Funds.

MF Investment Mistakes
Posted by :
vvrk
I do rely to some extent on intuition when it comes to fund selection. Though it worked well in the past, it kind of misfired badly with the funds I selected last year.
I invested in JM Equity (since Sandip Sabharwal was the fund manager hoping he would repeat the success he had with SBI Magnum MF's). It performed below average.
I invested in HDFC Capital Builder (since it got a new fund manager Chirag Setvalad who originally gave stellar performance with HDFC Taxsaver and HDFC LT Adv Plan before he left to join some hedge fund in UK.). Even this fund had an average run.
I am still invested in these funds though they are performing badly since I would like to give time to my investments to perform (atleast a minimum of 2 to 3 years).
