Top 10 India Monthly Income Plan (MIP) Mutual Funds – April 2010
Here are the best performing mutual funds in the Monthly Income Plans (MIP) category (See my previous post on FRPP
MIPs are essentially debt instruments, with fishing expeditions in equities. Around 80-85% is invested in debt and the remaining in equities. In a rising market, these expeditions can boost returns. However, the fund needs to manage these expeditions well to contain the downside.
Unlike Fixed Deposits, MIPs are very liquid, and are better instruments to manage taxes for those in the higher tax brackets. So, what are the better MIPs out there?
A total of 31 MIP mutual funds were used in the analysis. Reliance MIP and HDFC MIP-Long Term Plan have been very consistent and score much better than all the other MIPs. From last month’s rankings, the top 8 funds stay at the same place. Birla SL MIP II-Wealth 25 & Principal MIP moved out of the top 10 and replaced by L&T MIP-Regular and HSBC MIP-Regular.
