Kotak Healthcare Fund details, NAV, Portfolio, Returns, Peer Comparison, Fund Managers & Guidance by sahifund.com
NAV Growth: Rs 13.7960
NAV IDCW: Rs 13.7950
Suitable For Which Investors?
This is a fund that invests mainly in shares of pharmaceutical and healthcare companies.
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 is to seek to generate long term capital appreciation through investing in equity and equity related securities of companies benefitting directly or indirectly Pharma, Healthcare, and allied sectors.
