NAV Growth: Rs 23.8000
NAV IDCW: Rs 19.7000
Suitable For Which Investors?
This is a fund that invests mainly in companies that adhere to the narrow investment mandate mentioned in its investment objective.
We believe that investors should avoid funds that have a narrowly defined investment focus such as this one. Instead, they should invest in flexi-cap funds which provide complete freedom to the fund management team to invest in companies from which it expects maximum gains.
But if you do invest, you must do so only through the SIP route.
Fund’s Investment Strategy:
The scheme seeks to provide long term capital appreciation by investing in opportunities presented by special situations such as corporate restructuring, Government policy change and/or regulatory changes, companies going through temporary but unique challenges and other similar instances.
Fund Manager:
1) Dhaval Gala
Education: Mr. Gala has done BMS from Mithibai College and PGDBM-Finance from N.L.Dalmia Institute of Management Studies & Research.
Experience: Prior to joining Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund, he has worked with B&K Securities( January 2008- February 2011) and J.P.Morgan Chase India Private Ltd ( May 2005-July 2006).
