3. A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools
the savings of a number of investors
who share a common financial goal.
The money thus collected is then
invested in capital market
instruments such as shares,
debentures and other securities.
The income earned through these
investments and the capital
appreciation realised are shared by
6. Growth Schemes are also known as equity schemes. The aim
of these schemes is to provide capital appreciation over
medium to long term. These schemes normally invest a major
part of their fund in equities and are willing to bear short-term
decline in value for possible future appreciation.
Income Schemes are also known as debt schemes. The aim
of these schemes is to provide regular and steady income to
investors. These schemes generally invest in fixed income
securities such as bonds and corporate debentures. Capital
appreciation in such schemes may be limited.
Balanced Schemes aim to provide both growth and income
by periodically distributing a part of the income and capital
gains they earn. These schemes invest in both shares and fixed
income securities, in the proportion indicated in their offer
documents (normally 50:50).
Money Market Schemes aim to provide easy liquidity,
preservation of capital and moderate income. These schemes
generally invest in safer, short-term instruments, such as
treasury bills, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and
inter-bank call money.
7. Tax-saving schemes offer tax rebates to the investors
under tax laws prescribed from time to time. Under Sec.88
of the Income Tax Act, contributions made to any Equity
Linked Savings Scheme (ELSS) are eligible for rebate.
Index schemes attempt to replicate the performance of a
particular index such as the BSE Sensex or the CNX S&P
Nifty. The portfolio of these schemes will consist of only
those stocks that constitute the index. The percentage of
each stock to the total holding will be identical to the
stocks index weightage. And hence, the returns from such
schemes would be more or less equivalent to those of the
Index.
Sector funds/schemes which invest in the securities of
only those sectors or industries as specified in the offer
documents. e.g. Pharmaceuticals, Software, Fast Moving
Consumer Goods (FMCG), Petroleum stocks, etc. The
returns in these funds are dependent on the performance
of the respective sectors/industries.
