Re: New Investor : Help Please !!!!
First of all do not take my word for granted. Pleae do your own research by reading the portfolio makeover section in valueresearchonline.com
Allocate extra money about Rs 2000 say too magnum contra and dsp ml equity about 1000 each.
Exactly when you get more money allocate to these funds only. Give about a years time. If the fund is misbehaving compared to its peers exit it. If it is average remain invested. However well and great the fund maybe, the underlying instrument is equity. So monitor your investment atleast once in 3 months and wait for a year to exit.
Also I assume you have sufficient exposure to capital protection schemes like FD, NSC, debt etc. If not you should be putting the surplus money into this. Decide your debt to equity ratio of your portfolio. This varies from investor to investor and you should decide yours to reduce volatility in your portfolio.
If you have more money after 6 months start another SIP in these funds.

Thanks Vicky once again
Just few last questions please!
1) How do I allocate if I get some additional surplus amount within these 6 months. Should
the distribution amount be equal within these funds ? Suppose I commit 1600.00 SIP to
each of these funds. Can I increase the amount in a particular month and then go back
to 1600.00 the next month.

2) Also in future , If I am understanding it correctly, I should stick to these 5-6 months
only and as and when I get a surplus amount to invest, I should be allocating to these
funds only. Am I right ? (Ofcourse, needless to say, I should be watching the market
situation quite often)

3) What happens to SIP plan after 6 months. I may have more money to invest or I may
not have during the 7th month. The nature of my income is not continous as i am self-
employed. I may get a good sum during a particular month or I may hardly any sum. For
example, as stated earlier I have 50K surplus amount accumulated in my savings right
now, but I am not sure how much will be there next month. Please advise.
Thanks
