Top 10 India Equity Balanced Funds – April 2010


Here are Top 10 mutual funds in India for the month in the Equity Balanced category (See my previous post on FRPP).  The ranking in based on a number of parameters and values consistency in performance over a 3 year period rather than based on one number. Any fund in the top 10 is considered a good fund and rankings only reflect their relative performance.

The list remains largely unchanged compared to previous month’s list (Top 10 India Equity Balanced Funds – March 2010). Kotak Balance Fund enters the list at #9 and Principal Balanced Fund drops out of the list.  HDFC Prudence Fund has a significant strong lead over other balanced funds and is the pick of the lot. It’s also a very large fund in terms of assets.

 

Rank Fund Name – Equity Balanced Assets
(Rs. Cr)
NAV (2/4/2010) 1- year Return (%)
1 HDFC Prudence Fund 3,646.60 183.95 94.4
2 Birla Sun Life 95 Fund 253.85 277.09 75.7
3 Can Robeco Balance 156.69 55.05 67.4
4 HDFC Balanced Fund 144.12 47.55 78.1
5 Tata Balanced Fund 263.61 76.67 74.1
6 DSP-BR Balanced Fund 664.29 60.25 63.5
7 SBI Magnum Balanced Fund 493.95 48.46 61.4
8 Reliance RSF - Balanced 273.57 20.59 88.7
9 Kotak Balance Fund 67.03 22.01 54.6
10 Sundaram Balanced Fund 168.31 44.35 65.1



A total of 36 diversified equity mutual funds were used in the analysis. For reference purposes, SENSEX (1 year return – 78.7%) would have held the 9th rank, and NIFTY (1 year return – 72.9%) would have held the 10th rank.

 

Happy Investing!
