Suitable For Which Investors?
This is a fund that invests mainly in the shares of companies operating in the natural resources and energy sectors.
We believe that investors should avoid funds that have a narrowly defined investment mandate 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 generate long-term capital appreciation from a portfolio that is invested predominantly in equity and equity related securities of companies engaged in Energy and Energy related activities.
