Recently listed Nfos have crashed .

Mutual fund view :

The fall of markets has taken its toll on mutual funds too as expected , as the NAV of recently listed Nfos are below Rs 10 mark

The worst part is , investors had paid 2.25 % entry load also , so loss is more as of now :

The high profile , hyped Reliance natural resources Fund too has flopped recently .

The recently listed - Reliance natural resources , Aig infra fund have lost heavily ,and quoting below Rs 10 mark .

The NFO investors are at great loss now , its better to avoid nfos as of now , and wait for the listing of them as market slump is not ended .

or one can invest only small amount in NFOs

SEBI must waive entry load for all New fund offers now or the AMC themselves must not charge any entry load

whats the use of charging entry load ? when the listing is below Rs 10 ------------

We hope ,its turbulent time for AMCs ,it would be better , if they dont rush with any NFOs as investors are really worried now .

Team , IYG

Theme based fund Nfos on the anvil .

IYG special :

It seems the record fund collection by Reliance mf for its Reliance natural resources fund and sundaram mf ,which collected good amount for its petro fund are making other Fund houses to offer similar theme based funds , even though such schems do exist in their portfolio under different name :

Some of forthcoming theme based funds in fin services (banking )-

1. Hsbc Banking & Financial services fund

2. Sundaram thematic funds - financial services

3.Icici prudential Banking & financial services fund

4. Licmf financial services fund etc ...............

anyway as of now ,banking sector looks weak ,so these NFOs may get postponed as of now .


the word - financial services & natural resources is the main buzzword which is more fancied amongst the mutual funds circle .

investors need to be careful in these fund nfos as name are fancied too much to lure investors into investing .

Nfo review :

DSPML - natural resources fund is open now - the theme looks good , the fund house has given good returns in past schemes . one can invest small amount in this now ,and can add gradually , on re listing , it will perform well compared to Reliance natural resources fund as DSPML has international backed fund from parent - ML ( merriyl lynch ) . Also reliance mf has huge base of 5600 crore for its natural resources fund ,such a huge deployment of fund in current conditions is a bit challenging task .

Avoid the New fund offer as of now

Since many of recently listed NFOs are below Rs 10 , its not a great idea to invest in New fund offers as of now .

one needs to be very careful and specific in investing in Nfos .

investors should invest only small part in NFOs and can increase exposure gradually .

a high profile listed -Reliance natural resources is quoting at NAV of around 9.8 as of now .

so ,dont get tempted by the fund distributors and invest at random in these Nfos ,which look much riskier now .
