Suitable For Which Investors?
Nobody should invest in Auto & Transportation funds in our opinion, because:
• They have a narrow focus on companies engaged in automotive & related business activities
• Instead, diversified equity funds which invest across sectors are better
If you still choose to invest:
1. Invest only through SIP
2. Have a 7+ year investment horizon
3. Be prepared to withstand interim sharp declines in investment value
Fund’s Investment Strategy:
The scheme seeks to provide investment returns that commensurate to the total returns of the securities as represented by the Nifty Auto Index before expenses, subject to tracking errors.
