How to achieve "Lifetime of Investment success"?
Follow Bajaj Capital's time tested Investment Philosophy
Do not invest directly in the stock market. Take the Mutual Funds
route.
Safety of principal should be of prime importance. We believe in a
controlled (risk) approach to investments.
Do not let inflation eat up your money in a savings bank account. Go
for superior and stable returns.
Have a look at your financial objectives. Your investments should
depend upon them.
Take the long-term approach to equity investments.
Diversify your investments. Do not put all your eggs in one basket.
Keep a reasonable amount of liquid cash to meet your emergency
needs.
Take a balanced approach to investing. Avoid risky investments as well
as an overly cautious approach to Investing.
Monitor your investments once a month and take corrective action, if
required, immediately.
Do not try to time the entry and exit of your investments.
Every time is a good time to invest if you have a long- term outlook
and keep investing regularly.
Top
Put no more than 10% of your total investments in one company.

Create an ideal portfolio by achieving perfect balance between
Risk and returns.
Risk and return are two inseparable parts of an investment strategy. They
have a direct Higher the risks higher are the returns and vice versa. The
very basic consideration of an investor while investing his money are how
to maximize one's returns will he get and what are the risks involved in
investing in a particular investment.
Take the 'MIDDLE PATH APPROACH' to investments
Bank Deposits are too defensive, offering very low, real (post tax &
inflation) returns. On the other hand, investing in equity shares is too
risky. Always take the middle path approach by investing in a wide array
of instruments to have an optimum risk trade off.



What are Mutual Funds?/??
A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools together the savings of a number of
investors who share a common financial goal. The fund manager invests
this pool of money in securities -- ranging from shares and debentures to
money market instruments or in a mixture of equity and debt, depending
upon the objectives of the scheme.
Why choose Mutual Funds????
Investing in Mutual Funds offers several benefits:
Professional expertise:
Fund managers are professionals who track the market on an on-
going basis. With their mix of professional qualification and market
knowledge, they are better placed than the average investor to
understand the markets.

Since a Mutual Fund scheme invests in number of stocks and/or
debentures, the associated risks are greatly reduced.
Relatively less expensive:
When compared to direct investments in the capital market, Mutual
Funds cost less. This is due to savings in brokerage costs, demat
costs, depository costs etc.
Liquidity:
Investments in Mutual Funds are completely liquid and can be
redeemed at their Net Assets Value-related price on any working
Top
day.
Transparency:
You will always have access to up-to-date information on the value
of your investment in addition to the complete portfolio of
investments, the proportion allocated to different assets and the
fund managers investment strategy.

How to choose the right Mutual Fund scheme
Once you are comfortable with the basics, the next step is to understand
your investment choices, and draw up your investment plan relevant to
your requirements. Choosing your investment mix depends on factors
such as your risk appetite, time horizon of your investment, your
investment objectives, age, etc.

What should be kept in mind before investing in Mutual Funds?
Mutual Fund investment decisions require consistent effort on the part of
the investor. Before investing in Mutual Funds, the following steps must
be given due weightage to decide on the right type of scheme:

1. Identifying the Investment Objective
2. Selecting the right Scheme Category
3. Selecting the right Mutual Fund
4. Evaluating the Portfolio
A) Identifying the Investment Objective

Top
Top
Your financial goals will vary, based on your age, lifestyle, financial
independence, family commitments, level of income and expenses,
among many other factors. Therefore, the first step is to assess you
needs. Begin by asking yourself these simple questions:
Why do I want to invest?
The probable answers could be:
"I need a regular income"
"I need to buy a house/finance a wedding"
"I need to educate my children," or
A combination of all the above
How much risk am I willing to take?
The risk-taking capacity of individuals vary depending on various
factors. Based on their risk bearing capacity, investors can be classified
as:
Very conservative
Conservative
Moderate
Aggressive
Very Aggressive
To ascertain your risk appetite, try out our Risk Thermometer.
What are my cash flow requirements?
For example, you may require:
A regular Cash Flow
A lumpsum after a fixed period of time for some specific need in the
future
Or, you may have no need for cash, but you may want to create fixed
assets for the future
B) Selecting the scheme category
The next step is to select a scheme category that matches your
investment objectives:
For Capital Appreciation go for equity sectoral funds, equity
diversified funds or balanced funds.
For Regular Income and Stability you should opt for income
funds/MIPs
For Short-Term Parking of Funds go for liquid funds, floating rate
funds, short-term funds.
For Growth and Tax Savings go for Equity-Linked Savings Schemes.
Investment Objective Investment horizon Ideal Instruments
Top
Short-term Investment 1- 6 months Liquid/Short-term plans
Capital Appreciation Over 3 years Diversified Equity/ Balanced Funds
Regular Income Flexible Monthly Income Plans / Income Funds
Tax Saving 3 yrs lock-in Equity-Linked Saving Schemes (ELSS)

C) Selecting the right Mutual fund
Once you have a clear strategy in mind, you now have to choose which
Mutual fund and scheme you want to invest in. The offer document of the
scheme tells you its objectives and provides supplementary details like
the track record of other schemes managed by the same Fund Manager.
Some important factors to evaluate before choosing a particular Mutual
Fund are:

The track record of performance over that last few years in relation to
the appropriate yardstick and similar funds in the same category.
How well the Mutual Fund is organized to provide efficient, prompt and
personalized service.
The degree of transparency as reflected in frequency and quality of
their communications.

D) Evaluation of portfolio
Evaluation of equity fund involve analysis of risk and return, volatility,
expense ratio, fund managers style of investment, portfolio
diversification, fund managers experience. Good equity fund should
provide consistent returns over a period of time. Also expense ratio
should be within the prescribed limits. These days fund house charge
around 2.50% as management fees.
Evaluation of bond funds involve it's assets allocation analysis, return's
consistency, its rating profile, maturity profile, and its performance
over a period of time. The bond fund with ideal mix of corporate debt and
gilt fund should be selected.
Systematic Investment Plan (SIP):
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a simple method of investing, used
across the world as a means to accumulate wealth. It works the same
way as a recurring deposit account. SIP involves investing a fixed sum of
money in a specific investment scheme, on a regular basis, for a pre-
determined number of period.
SIP is a disciplined approach to investing, and:
Helps you to invest disposable funds each month.
Gives you the benefits of rupee-cost averaging
Top
Top
Relieves you of trying to time the market
Helps you to reach your financial goals
Here is how you start:
Fill up a single SIP form, and a single application form.
Draw post-dated cheques (minimum 5 cheques).
Per cheque minimum SIP amount, can be as low as Rs 500/-
How is SIP useful?
Your periodic investments can be as small as you want, provided your
overall investment is at least Rs. 5,000/-.
The day/ date option ensures that you get to pick the time of month/
quarter that best suits you, given your cash flow patterns.
Minimum papaerwork
If you invest through SIP, you do not have to pay an entry load in most
schemes
If you exit in less than the specified period (usually, 6 months for debt
schemes, 1 year for equity schemes), you pay exit load as applicable.
Benifits of SIP

SIP in Tax Saving schemes (ELSS)
People having time horizon of more than 3-4 years may choose Tax
Saving schemes (ELSS) over a purely diversified or focused equity fund
scheme.

It provides:
Relief from one lump sum investment at the year-end (e.g., Rs. 1,000
every month, rather than Rs. 12,000 lump sum)
Tax relief
Accumulating Insurance Premium through SIP.

Open two SIPs of 6 month each and repeat the same after 6 months.
It provides:
Ready premium at the end of six months every one year.
Relief from one lump sum investment at one go (e.g., Rs. 1,000 every
month, rather than Rs. 12,000 lump sum at the time of premium
payment date).


Word of Caution on SIP
An SIP may not always provide better results in terms of returns,
especially in successively rising markets (The Rising markets example
above has some months when NAV falls). But it usually works out in
favour of investors as markets tend to fluctuate by nature fluctuate and
Top
do not always show a continuous rise over long periods. And of course,
SIP does offer a superior and easier way of investing in Mutual Funds.

How to calculate the growth of your Mutual Fund investments?
ILLUSTRATION
Mr. Gupta purchased Mutual Fund units worth Rs. 10,000 at an NAV of Rs.
10 per unit on February 1, 2004. The Entry Load on the Mutual Fund was
2%. On September 15, 2004, he sold all the units at an NAV of Rs 20.
The exit load was 0.5%.

His growth/ returns is calculated as under:

1. Calculation of Applicable NAV and No. of units purchased:
(a) Amount of Investment = Rs. 10,000
(b) Market NAV = Rs. 10
(c) Entry Load = 2% = Rs. 0.20
(d) Applicable NAV (Purchase Price) = (b) + (c) = Rs. 10.20
(e) Actual Units purchased = (a) / (d) = 980.392 units

2. Calculation of NAV at the time of Sale
(a) NAV at the time of Sale = Rs 20
(b) Exit Load = 0.5% or Rs.0.10
(c) Applicable NAV = (a) (b) = Rs. 19.90

3. Returns/Growth on Mutual Funds
(a) Applicable NAV at the time of Redemption = Rs. 19.90
(b) Applicable NAV at the time of Purchase = Rs. 10.20
(c) Growth/ Returns on Investment = {(a) (b)/(b) * 100} = 95.30 %
Some donts for Mutual Funds

Do not speculate: Always evaluate risk-taking capacity.
Do not chase returns: Because what goes up must come down.
Do not put all eggs in one basket: Diversification reduces the risk.
Do not stop working on Mutual Funds: Continuous evaluation of funds
is a must.
Do not time the market: Every time is good for investments.

Always remember

1. Mutual Funds are subject to market risks and there is no assurance
that the fund objective will be achieved.
2. NAVs fluctuate depending on forces affecting the Capital market.
3. Past performance may or may not be sustained in the future.
4. Returns are neither guaranteed nor assured.
