Suitable For Which Investors?
When you invest for five years or more, you can expect gains that beat the inflation rate as well as the returns from fixed income options. But be prepared for ups and downs in your investment value along the way.
Balanced hybrid funds invest roughly half your money in equity shares and the rest in bonds. Their returns are lower than pure equity funds which invest all your money in shares, but they also fall less when the stock markets decline. This makes them suitable for conservative equity investors or first-time equity investors who are not used to sharp ups and downs.
Like all equity-linked investments, you must invest only through the SIP route.
Fund’s Investment Strategy:
The scheme seeks to generate steady returns along with tax savings through a portfolio of upto 40% in equities with the balance invested in fixed income instruments. This is to ensure relative stability and deliver superior returns.
