The \"so deemed experts\" and their reviews and interviews appearing more since the past half- year have grossly misfired, be it in in their statements, forecasts & expressions.
How dare they predict market movements on a day-to-day basis, when no one has a real idea when the period destined as favourable when tides would turn northwards!
Yet we read interviews and hear talk on television from certain \...

Besides equities look at long bond, gilt funds: Tata MF

Posted by : MMB Messenger

Ved Prakash Chaturvedi, MD, Tata Mutual Fund, said one should brace for further negative newsflow on fundamentals and earnings growth. "The market possibly has not fully factored-in the kind of slowdown that we are going to see." On what should investors do now, he said they should look at equities but also look at long bond and gilt funds.

Dear Experts,
I noticed in my VROL Portfolio this month over -20% as net payable in debt portfolio rating break up. I was wondering where this has come up from. I checked all the fund details and found that my UTI Spread fund was having -73% as net payable in cash. Can any of our MMB experts throw any light on this please. Is it okay to have such a big percentage as negative value.
Thanks,
Mahesh...

Under 80C one can get a deduction upto 1 lakh from gross income.
Investment made in ELSS, your PF contribution , PPF ( a/c to be opened in SBI / post office), NSC, amount paid towards repayment of principal (if you have a housing loan) & life insurance premiums paid for self & family members - all of them put together Rs 1 lakh - you will get a deduction of 1 lakh in your gross income .You have to show the proof to your office - they will calculate tax on the balance taxable income. ELSS is equity linked savings scheme. There is a 3 year lock in from the date the units are allotted. Since it is equity linked - it carries a risk. Ideally you should invest via SIP ( systematic investment plan) i.e. in instalments. You can open a PPF a/c with nearest SBI branch. Go for a combination of PPF & ELSS. Initially you can invest less in PPF. As you get older increase PPF and reduce ELSS. ...

investment in ELSS for tax saving

Posted by : Guest

I am Bhola shaw.My montly income is about 30000. I want to save in ELSS for tax benefit.Please tell me the process how and how much tax are exempt on these investment.

14 Nov 2008 16:24

Under the present IT law, upto 01 Lakh saving is exempted if invested in tax saving instruments. You can invest the entire 01 Lakh in ELSS if your risk apetite is high since the money inturn will be invested in share market by the AMC. Otherwise you can also choose safe instruments like PPF ( max 70,000 per yr allowed in PPF), NSC, 05 yr FDs etc....

In fact most MFs are waiting for the market to bottom out completely as market is still riding with some air of good growth. But as we see the actual slowdown, the growth will definitely be affected & GDP of 5 to 5.5% will be seen. Again IIP numbers could see negative times ahead. So Indian market has not factored its own slowdown & its dipping growth coming forward, it has just factored US recession & Europe\...

Most MFs likely to invest in largecaps: Valueresearch

Posted by : MMB Messenger

Dhirendra Kumar of Valueresearch the MF industry is still in a wait and watch mode and has hardly deployed any of the remaining cash. He believes most of the MFs when they do deploy their cash are likely to incline heavily towards large-caps as there’s little confidence in mid-caps.

Let us say you have made an asset allocation of 50% in debt and 50% in equity. Last 1 year let us say you have invested Rs 50,000 in debt and Rs 50,000 in equity. After 1 year your debt portion would have grown to say Rs 54000 ( @ net 8%) . Your equity portion has come down to Rs 36000. So your asset allocation has changed to 54:36 from 50:50
This year if you are investing 1 lakh - invest Rs 41,000 in debt and Rs 59000 in equity. Your asset allocation will come back To 50:50 ( 95000: 95000). In the future equity will perform better than debt. End of the year you might have to put more in debt to balance or even withdraw partly to make it 50:50. As long as you keep doing this every year you will make money in the long run. The main problem with people is that when equity does well they invest more and when it is not doing well like now, they run away or stop investing. If you overcome GREED and FEAR - you can be a successful investor. What one needs is DISCIPLINE & PATIENCE. You being a doctor , should find it easier. ...

What is PE...

12 Nov 2008 22:35

that is true of Dow also or even sensex. one cannot passively invest and be clear enough to pluck the fruits when ripe. otherwise the returns from fd over a long period will be better (post tax). I would consider fd returns superior even to real estate investment if rent is ignored. if rent is considered there is the risk of loss of the property if he refuses to vacate.

Make money when the markets fall

Posted by : ragu6

Oh! I have doubts on Equity as asset class - Nikkei was around 35,000 in late 80s. The fall from there is continous and now after a couple of decades, it is struggling less than 10,000.

Anything fundamentally wrong in Japan?
