Top 10 Equity Balanced Funds - March 2010

 

Here is the first edition of FRPP rankings in the Equity Balanced category (See my previous post on FRPP). 

At the top is the HDFC Prudence Fund which has a careful mix of equity and debt holdings. Currently, its portfolio has 72.5% invested in stocks and 20.5% invested in debt.  This is one of the very few balanced funds that has managed to beat the Sensex in the last one year. A great fund to have in the portfolio.

Birla Sunlife 95 Fund comes in the second position, and HDFC Balanced Fund holds the third position.
