Risk Profile: The
risk associated with this fund is too high because the total investment is
focused on the stocks from small caps and midcaps sector. During the corrective
phase or bad times this scripts do not
have any lower limits to fall which can turn into capital loss. However
every coin has 2 sides as these small size companies have potential to turn
large which once happens can add bumper
returns to your corpus. It is suitable to investors having high risk
bearing ability within the age of 20-40 years.
Investment perspective: This fund has
maximum exposure to equity and as per our outlook on Indian Equity markets we
feel that the corrective action of past months is on the verge of completion
and post that the Bull Run should resume which will provide alpha returns.
Hence this is the correct time to park your money in this fund through the SIP
route.
In
a nutshell, this fund looks to be the best
amongst the midcap and small cap sectors. The break of 65 levels will provide
excellent opportunities to investors to enter in staggered fashion and ride
closer to their goals!
