We have identified the best equity-oriented schemesavailable in the market today based on the following fiveparameters: the past performance as indicated by theone-year, two-year and three-year returns, the Sharperatio and the Information ratio.
The Sharpe ratio indicates risk-adjusted returns, ie thereturns earned in excess of the risk-free rate for eachunit of the risk taken. The Sharpe ratio is also indicativeof the consistency of the returns as it takes into accountthe volatility in the returns as measured by the standarddeviation.
The Information ratio is one of the most important toolsin active fund management. It is the ratio of active return(the return over the index return) to active risk annualised.A higher Information ratio indicates a better fund manager.
We have selected the schemes based upon their rankingusing the above five parameters and then calculated themaximum value of each of the five parameters. Thereafter,we have calculated the percentage under-performance

Sharekhan’s top SIP fund picks
Why SIP?
Disciplined investing
Being disciplined is a key to investing success. Througha systematic investment plan (SIP) you can choose toinvest fixed amounts in a mutual fund scheme whichcould be as low as Rs500 at regular intervals (like everymonth) for a chosen period of time (say for a year).The amount you invest every month or every quarterwill be used to purchase units of a SIP of a mutualfund scheme. Small amounts set aside every monthtowards well performing SIP mutual fund schemes canmake an investor achieve his financial goals in future.
Invest in instruments that beat inflation
Equity investing can help you combat rising inflationthat diminishes the value of your savings.
SIP over a longer period can reduce the cost per unit
Example (see table below): An investment of Rs24,000in a mutual fund resulted in a value of Rs25,200 after12 months; whereas an SIP mutual fund investment ofRs2,000 per month grew to Rs27,095 after the sameperiod.
Fewer efforts to opt for SIP
The procedure to invest through SIP is easy. All youneed to do is give post-dated cheques or opt for anauto debit of a specific amount towards SIP from yourbank account. SIP plans are completely flexible. Onecan even start an SIP just by placing an order by logginginto Sharekhan’s online mutual fund page. One caninvest for a minimum of six months or for a long tenure.Also, there is an option of choosing the investmentinterval which could be monthly or quarterly.

On the global front, investor concerns eased after Eurozone leaders unanimously reached an agreement on a European StabilityMechanism program for Greece. Greek banks reopened following a three-week closure. Meanwhile the International Monetary Fund(IMF) confirmed that Greece had repaid the roughly €2 billion ($2.2 billion) it owed to the transnational body amid reports that Greecehad also begun to repay its debt to the European Central Bank. The U.S. Federal Reserve Chief in her testimony indicated that interestrates may be hiked by the end of 2015 if the U.S. economy continued to recover as expected. People's Bank of China said that it wouldsupport the stable development of the stock market and actively assist China Securities Finance Co. Ltd. to provide liquidity.
Bond / Debt market round upBond yields rose during the month on concerns over rise in inflationary pressures after monsoon rainfall forecast was revised downward.A rate cut by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) could not provide much support as it was already factored in by market participants.Global sell-off in the sovereign debt market and concerns over Greece’s debt crisis further hit market sentiments. However, furtherlosses were restricted after the RBI proposed to set the limit for foreign investments for Government debt in the rupee instead of thedollar.
The yield on the 10-year benchmark bond increased by 22 bps to close at 7.86% against the previous month’s close of 7.64%, aftermoving in the range of 7.64% to 7.89%.
Bond / Debt Outlook: Market participants will closely track domestic inflation numbers (both wholesale and retail), monsoon rainfallsituation and global crude oil prices. Investors will also keep a tab on the ongoing developments in Greece. Progress of the monsoon andthe Government’s role in astute food management is likely to play a bigger role in inflation trend in the near term, and may decide theRBI’s stance on future rate cuts. Monetary policies adopted by the Central Bank across the globe will also remain in sharp focus. TheCentral Bank will conduct the auction of Government dated securities for an aggregate amount of Rs. 73,000 crore. The Central Bank willconduct the auction of 91-days, 182-days and 364-days Government of India Treasury Bills for an aggregate amount of Rs. 70,000 crore.

Investment strategy
Global concerns regarding Greece’s debt situation eased after the country reached an agreement with its international creditors. Oil pricesalso fell following concerns over supply glut after Iran and six global powers reached an agreement over nuclear deal. However, with theReserve Bank of India (RBI) expected to keep its monetary policy on hold in the coming months, yields are likely to remain range bound inabsence of any further trigger in the short run. Earlier the Central Bank struck a cautious note in its monetary policy review and opinedthat below-normal monsoons, global crude oil prices and geo-political uncertainty pose risks to inflation. Thus investors can continue tohold a portfolio similar to Moderately Conservative Fund as such an approach helps safeguard the portfolio from any major downside.

Research ProcessThe model portfolio has been determined on the basis of the risk-return trade-off offered by various asset classes. As the risk appetite ofthe investor increases, the return expectation also increases. The portfolio volatility as measured by the standard deviation of theinherent asset classes has been used as a surrogate of risk. Allocation has been ascertained keeping in mind the trade-off between highervolatility in returns and the safety of capital. Therefore, while gilt funds are the most secure, the relatively higher volatility in returns maynot be suitable for a conservative investor; at the same time a moderately conservative investor will be able to absorb the gyrations inreturns. The model portfolio has been expressed in ranges to offer flexibility in creating actual portfolios.

Category Write-upIndian equity markets fell in June and stocks across market capitalization witnessed selling pressure. Concerns over inflation on thepossibility of a below-normal monsoon, debt crisis in Greece and downward revision in growth estimates dampened market sentiments.Losses were restricted later as worries over monsoon eased and key macroeconomic indicators improved.
Bond yields rose on concerns over rise in inflationary pressures, global sell-off in the sovereign debt market and concerns over Greece’sdebt crisis. A rate cut by the RBI could not provide much support as it was already factored in by market participants.
Returns from debt categories (one-year period and one-month rolling returns) fell across the categories. Major impact was witnessedacross Gilt Long Term, Monthly Income Plan and Debt Income, which grew at 11.01%, 10.57%, and 9.20% respectively. Returns from Gilt STand Debt ST categories also fell to 8.18% and 8.80%, respectively. Returns across Debt FRF and Liquid categories fell to 8.37% and 8.34%,respectively. The least impact was witnessed on Ultra Short Term segment, whose returns stood at 8.41%.
