Best new Mutual fund?
« on: May 07, 2010, 05:01:39 PM »
i just came to know today that Reliance Mutual Fund has launched a new fund named as Reliance Fixed Horizon Fund - XIV - Series 10, a close ended income scheme. The New Fund Offer (NFO) price for the scheme is Rs 10 per unit. The new issue is open for subscription from 6 May and closes on 7 May 2010.

The primary investment objective of the scheme is to seek to generate regular returns and growth of capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of Central, State Government securities and other fixed income/ debt securities normally maturing in line with the time profile of the scheme with the objective of limiting interest rate volatility.

The duration of the scheme is 24 months from the date of allotment. is it any good guys?or they are just dangling the carrot before everyone?

It is certainly not the best. Do you know if it is Equity or Debt fund ? And what is your investment objective ?

You first talk of Reliance Fixed Horizon Fund - XIV - Series 10 and then you use the keyword "they". My response was w.r.t Reliance Fixed Horizon Fund - XIV - Series 10. Hope that explains.

Well there are many good ones, but depends on your Risk and Goals. How many years you want to stay invested ? Can you invest in SIPs or you want to go for lumpsum ? You sit and decide yourself but be disciplined. We started our SIPs in 1999 and we went through lot of pain in 2001 but now, it is impossible to get the funds at those rates...

Equity - go for HDFC Equity, HDFC Top 200, Reliance Growth, DSPML BR 200
