How to choose the best mutual funds?

How to choose the best mutual funds?

 

Mutual fund is one of the best investment option for a regular investor, where investors can select and invest in a mutual fund scheme according to their financial goals and risk taking capability. However, an investor can directly invest or hire a mutual fund advisor. If an investor is investing directly, they will invest through direct plans of mutual fund scheme and if investor invests through a mutual fund advisor, they will invest in a regular plan of mutual fund scheme.

 

What are the various types of Mutual funds available to investors?

 

1. Equity mutual fund scheme – These funds are directly invested in stocks and returns depends on how these stocks perform over a period of time. These schemes give high returns but are very risky if invested for short term. Investors should invest for long term, at least for five to ten years. There are 10 types of equity mutual fund schemes available based on the capitalization and tenure such as Multi Cap funds, Large Cap funds, Large and Mid-cap funds, Mid Cap Funds, small cap funds, Dividend Yield Funds, Value Funds, Contra Funds, Focused Funds, Sectoral or thematic funds and Equity linked saving schemes (ELSS).

 

2. Debt mutual fund scheme – This MF scheme directly invests in Debt Securities. Investors who want to invest for short term i.e less than 5 years, should invest in these schemes. These schemes are less risky than equity schemes and provide modest returns. There are 16 debt mutual fund schemes based on tenure and returns such as Overnight Funds, Liquid Funds, Ultra short duration funds, low duration Funds, Money Market Funds, Short duration funds, Medium duration funds, Medium to long duration funds, Long duration Funds, Dynamic Bonds, Corporate bond funds, Credit Risk Funds, Banking and PSU funds, Gilt Funds, Gilt funds with ten years duration and Floater funds.

 

3. Hybrid mutual fund scheme – This scheme invests in debt and equity schemes. Investors can select these scheme based on their risk appetite. There are six hybrid mutual funds available based on the allocation and investment pattern such as Conservative hybrid Funds, Balanced Hybrid Funds, Aggressive hybrid Funds, Dynamic Asset Allocation, Multi Asset allocation, Arbitrage Funds and Equity Savings.

 

4. Solution oriented Scheme – These Schemes are especially for a particular solution or goal such as child’s education or retirement. However, they have mandatory lock in period of 5 years.

 

 

Mutual Fund Charges:

Total Expenses which a particular Mutual Fund incurred is known as Expense Ratio and this measures per unit cost of the funds managed. Generally, expense ratio is charged around 1.5 to 2.5 percent of the weekly (average) net asset of schemes.

 

 

How to select best Mutual Funds?

 

1. Know your financial goals and risk appetite – As an investor, one must first analyse his financial goals. Ask questions like, what they are looking for, short term or long term investment? Do they want to go for high risk, high return or low risk medium returns? For what purpose is money needed like retirement or any other specific purpose? Do they need money in near future? Or they want to invest for lock in period? By answering these questions, Investor will get a clear picture of their financial goals.

 

2. Compare the Expense Ratio – Cost of owing some funds can be expensive so choose the lowest possible expense ratio. For example, if one fund has a cost of 0.50 percent while another has a cost of 1.5 percent as an expense ratio. Investors should choose according to the schemes and expense cost.

 

3. Avoid funds which have high turnover – It is important to see turnover rate for funds, as it impacts the tax rate. It is basically a percentage of the portfolio that is brought and sold in a particular year. Usually, portfolio with more than 50 percent turnover carry higher tax rates.

 

4. Hire Disciplined Management Team – Fund manager should be selected on basis of the past record track and portfolio manager with high talent and experience team should be chosen.

 

5. Select No load Mutual Fund – They are basically the fees, which are charged on assets (5% of assets usually). However, not all funds have charges. Investors should choose wisely, no load fund carry no charges and increases overall returns.

 

6. Check historical data and Diversify assets – investors should check historical data, reports and how they have evaluated them. Diversify whole portfolio, because in case an asset does not perform well due to some reasons, other asset class can balance them.

 

 

Some of the best mutual funds:

1. Nippon India US Equity Opportunities Fund – It has an expense ratio of 1.5% and has given returns around 15% per annum in 5 years.

2. ICICI Prudential US Blue Chip Equity Fund – Its expense Ratio is 1.79% and returns of 13.81% Per annum in last 5 years.

3. DSP World Gold Fund – Expense Ratio 1.9% and Returns around 12.81% per annum.

Automakers come up with unique schemes to push sales.

 

Leading passenger car makers are partnering with NBFC’s and banks to give consumers competitive financing solutions and improve market sales. In the  several early months, a potential customer will choose to pay considerably low installments and afterwards increase the percentage payable at a pre-specified rate.

 

Maruti Suzuki:

Maruti Suzuki India Ltd has collaborated with bankers such as ICICI Bank Ltd to include EMI of a maximum of Rs 899 for the first 3 months of its loan value of Rs 1 lakh. Another scheme lets borrowers pay EMI as small as Rs 1797 per lakh over the term of service, including the last payment where the borrower charges one-fourth of the loan value. The Delhi-based auto manufacturer has also partnered with banks to finance 100 percent of the automobile on-road.

Car leasing:

Maruti Suzuki is currently proposing leasing automobiles to its customers via dealer networks. This change will add optimism to Maruti Suzuki distributors at a time when the company has been under continuous stress owing to decreasing domestic revenues and the financial crisis triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. This scenario can be suitable for the release of such services by Maruti, as city buyers are likely to favor the vehicle leasing system, rate drop, cost-effectiveness, and less burden on leased automobiles.

M&M, the manufacturer of Scorpio and Bolero SUV, has now launched car loan plans under which consumers are subject to a 90-day suspension or may pay in 2021. In a 8-year loan period, a 90-day payment moratorium including 100 percent on-road financing, to enable buyers conveniently acquire their cars will be provided in the middle of the lock down. According to the company, the policies provide a 50 percent rebate from the payment charge and the opportunity to “buy now, pay later” for the doctor’s segment, a strong reimbursement program for security officers. While, woman consumers will be entitled to a 10-point reduction on the cost of borrowing. The car manufacturer now gives consumers the option of buying a BSVI-compliant pick-up and charging the same EMI as the BS-IV model while, the SUV buyer will now buy the model now and begin paying the monthly installment from 2021. Also, the firm is selling BS-VI vehicles on the same monthly installation as the previous BS-IV platform. In this program, the EMI for funded vehicles begins with as small as Rs 1,234 per lakh.

 

Volkswagen:

Volkswagen India has announced a leasing and lending service. In a bid to improve demand and render its vehicles available to customers, the German automaker has unveiled different ownership options, including rental and buy-back options.

Clients can also make use of zero down payment together with premiums, servicing and some other costs provided by the scheme. The lease program also offers buyers the ability to switch to certain Volkswagen vehicles. Although, Tiguan and Vento can be purchased under the promised buy-back program, the business has indicated that more versions will be put within this scheme.
