Best Picks
Best Picks (Diversified)

The best picks are schemes that one can invest in with a long-term horizon. Thes
e schemes have a good
performance track record and are also rated by Value Research.

Birla Sun Life Equity Rating


This erstwhile Alliance fund, has evolved to be a steady, well-diversified, mult
i-cap offering that has
consistently beaten the category average. The number of stocks are around 50 and
the top 5
holdings add up to just around 20% of the assets, which remain evenly spread acr
oss large- and mid-
caps. The fund is suitable to be among the core holdings of one's portfolio.

DSP ML Opportunities Rating


DSPML Mutual Fund projects this fund as a tactical fund that attempts to maximis
e returns through
aggressive sector and stock specific calls. The fund believes in buy-and-hold st
rategy and has a
well-diversified portfolio dominated by large-caps. The fund has been consistent
ly rated four-star by
Value Research.

HDFC Equity Rating


HDFC Equity has beaten the category average every single calendar year since 199
7. Its ability to
identify opportunities at the right time is the key factor contributing to its s
uccess. Though the fund
maintains a large-cap bias, it does not hesitate to invest substantially in stoc
ks of smaller
companies, as and when there are opportunities to exploit.

SBI Magnum Contra Rating


The fund has consistently managed to stay ahead of the curve. The fund outperfor
med the category
in every quarter since 2003. The fund has struck a fine balance between riding o
n consensus sectors
and taking contrarian bets. The end product is a blended portfolio of growth and
value stocks. While
still holding on to its multi-cap orientation, the portfolio has expanded from 3
1 odd scrips to 57. We
continue to think that this is a topnotch pick.

Reliance Growth Rating


The largest mid-cap fund with asset under management of over Rs 3,500 crore, Rel
iance Growth has
been beating its peers by an impressive margin for the past so many years. In th
e past, the fund
followed a strategy of buy-and-hold for some stocks while in some it has gone fo
r a quick profit
taking. It is well known for its smart moves.

This erstwhile Alliance fund seems to be regaining
its days of glory but without the brashness of its
youth. After a dazzling performance of 280 per
cent (1999) and a miserable two years (2001, 2002), it
now seems to be back on track.
Like a chameleon, this one constantly changed its
colours. In its initial years, it was a dangerously
focused offering with extreme concentration in few
technology stocks, followed by a stream of small hold-
ings. It paid off handsomely before falling in the dol-
drums. What followed (since 2003) were smaller port-
folios of 30-35 stocks with the top five holdings con-
suming 35 per cent of the assets. This brought in the
much needed sectoral diversity.
A good move at this time was the identification of the
mid-cap rally early enough.
In September 2005 the fund was acquired by Birla Sun
Life. The natural consequence was a significant toning
down of the aggression. The number of stocks gradual-
ly rose to around 50 and the top 5 holdings now add up
to just around 20 per cent of the assets, which remain
evenly spread across large- and mid-caps. What s
more, the fund manager does not hesitate to shift a
considerable part of assets to cash at the first sign of
trouble.
Despite this ongoing transformation, the fund has
evolved to be a steady, well-diversified, multi-cap offer-
ing that has consistently beaten the category average.
With erratic performances and concentrated portfolios
being a trend of the past, this fund is suitable to be
among the core holdings of your portfolio.

Analysis
DSPML Mutual Fund projects DSPML
Opportunities as a tactical fund that will attempt
to maximise returns through aggressive sector
and stock specific calls. It began life that way in April
2000. However, tech meltdown that year saw its NAV
crash soon after, forcing the fund to dilute its aggressive
stance. Since then, it is run more like any other
diversified equity fund.
In the five-year period ended February 3, 2006, the
fund's 50 per cent return makes it one of the good
funds in the category. The fund has been consistently
rated four-star by Value Research.
The fund's launch coincided with the tech bubble bust.
Worse, nearly half of the portfolio allocated to tech
stocks made the fund bleed heavily. It started below par
and lost 15 per cent by the end of 2000.
Though it diluted some aggression, yet it remained
heavily invested in tech stocks. The strategy bombed.
Tech stocks continued to bleed. By mid-September, the
fund's initial investors had lost more than 45 per cent of
their assets. By now, the fund management was convinced
that it was time for introspection. The fund started
to buy more stocks and cut exposure to individual
stocks and sectors.
Today, it has a well-diversified portfolio dominated by
large-caps. Lately, the fund is showing signs of regaining
aggression. However, that is limited to one or two
sectors. At the stock level, there's no sign of any
aggression though. Except for a brief period in late
2001 and mid 2003, tech stocks have dominated the
portfolio. The fund believes in buy-and-hold strategy.
Grasim Industries, which the fund held since start, has
turned a multi-bagger. Reliance Industries is the top
holding of the fund accounting for 4.26 per cent of its
portfolio.

Analysis

This perennial winner has a massive fan following.


And rightly so! Like a magician repeating a trick,
HDFC Equity has beaten the category average
every single calendar year since 1997. Its ability to
identify opportunities at the right time is the key factor
contributing to its success. For example, when the
Supreme Court halted PSU disinvestment in September
2003, the fund sold its entire energy holding and built a
fresh position in March 2004, when PSU stocks started
rallying.
Though the fund maintains a large-cap bias, it does not
hesitate to invest substantially in stocks of smaller
companies, as and when there are opportunities to
exploit. Currently, large-caps account for 51 per cent of
the assets while the mid- and small-cap allocations
stand at 42 and 6 per cent respectively. The fund manager
has always boldly ridden his convictions. He
refrains from taking cash calls and prefers to remain
fully invested at all times. Historically, his portfolio has
been a focussed 25-30 stocks. But the complexion of
the fund seems to be changing on this front. The number
of stocks has increased to over 45. And, the concentration
in the top five holdings has been moderated
from 35-40 per cent about a year ago, to just around
25 per cent now.
This is probably not reflective of his stance but rather
an adjustment to the size. Investors have flocked to this
fund in droves making it the largest diversified equity
offering of Rs 5,000 crore. And this very factor may be
detrimental to the strategy of the fund. The fund s ability
to identify opportunities and take meaningful exposure
in them will be neutralised by its increasing size. The
fund has displayed ample spunk till date, but it remains
to be seen how it fares from here on.

Magnum Contra has consistently managed to
stay ahead of the curve. The fund outperformed
the category in every quarter since
2003. It emerged as the second and third best fund in
2004 and 2005 and was pretty impressive last year too.
It has the third highest risk adjusted return in its category,
i.e. for every unit of risk undertaken, the fund gives
you more bang for your buck. When the market slips, it
tends to fall much less than the category average as
well.
But don't get misled by the name. When it was true to
its calling, its stock picks and sector moves made it an
awfully bold choice. But somewhere down the road it
shed its contrarian image.
However, we don t see it as a sign that it has run out of
gas. In all fairness, the contrarian instinct does surface
now and then. The fund's moderate stance in technology
and financial services, for instance. Or it's significant
holding of metal stocks. Kudos to the fund manager for
maintaining status quo on its auto holdings (Tata
Motors and Maruti Udyog) when the tide turned against
the sector after the first interest rate hike in December
2006.
The fund has struck a fine balance between riding on
consensus sectors and taking contrarian bets. The end
product is a blended portfolio of growth and value
stocks.
While still holding on to its multi-cap orientation, the
portfolio has expanded from 31 odd scrips to 57. As
long as the fund manager finds value in the stocks, he
continues to hold them and does not resort to aggressive
churning.
We continue to think that this is a topnotch pick.

Analysis
The largest mid-cap fund with asset under management
of over Rs 3,500 crore, Reliance Growth has
been beating its peers by an impressive margin for
the past so many years.
After the 2001 dotcom crash, the fund has made a
smart comeback in 2002 with a return of 55.75 per
cent, the second-best among the 59 funds. Since then
it maintained a top quartile position for the next four
calendar years. However, in 2006 the fund was ranked
53 among 145 with a return of 41 per cent.
While the fund's allocation to large-, mid- and small-
caps keep oscillating, over the past one year, the exposure
to small-cap stocks has increased from around 15
per cent to over 23 per cent. In the past, the fund followed
a strategy of buy-and-hold for some stocks while
in some it has gone for a quick profit taking. It is well
known for its smart moves. In 2001, the fund maintained
a higher exposure to PSU and technology stocks.
The holdings in FMCG stocks helped the fund generate
second-best return in its category in 2002. Following
the rally in bank and auto stocks in 2003, the fund
increased exposure in both sectors.
Over the past six months, this fund has increased exposure
in metals, while paring holdings in engineering,
technology and financial services.
However, being a mid-cap fund, Reliance Growth's huge
asset size remains a concern. For a mid-cap fund, the
ability to take aggressive positions in small stocks gets
diluted with increasing size.
As of now, the fund boasts of one of the most enviable
performance records. But to remains to be seen
whether it can continue to do so with its huge asset
base. The fund had shut its doors to fresh investments
in April last year. But in August 2006 it again resumed
tacking in fresh investments.
