Best Equity Mutual Funds

[mayurkotlikar]

2 years is a small time.

Since you want to stay put for 5 years, Infra is a good option right now:
DSP ML T.I.G.E.R (2,000)

This is a good probability that in coming years and with your horizon, midcap will just click. You can put in small amount (1,000):
JM Contra (specially due to its Fund manager)

A good diversified one:
DSP Top 200 (2,000)

Should go for balance:
DSP ML Balanced (1000)

Go for DSP ML world gold fund or similar one which invests in gold companies. When Sensex tumbles, you have gold. (2000)

He already has enough of FD/Insurance and I don't think its necessary for him to invest in Debt Funds. I've advised him to invest the entire amount in Equity and Balanced Funds. According to me these are the funds and allocations he should consider -

HDFC Prudence - 40K
Birla Sunlife Equity - 40K
Reliance Growth - 30K
Magnum Contra - 30K
DSPML T.I.G.E.R. - 30K
Kotak Opportunities - 30K

I've also advised him to go by SIP route (6 installments/fund) starting next month itself and continue till July 08. I would like to know if the above selection of funds and allocation is good enough and reasonably risk free. I don't want him to blame me later for giving him a wrong advice. Please help.

My advice would be to go for funds with large cap bias and more in balanced as the investment is for your dad and his looking at his age it is better to not go for aggressive funds. Even MIP is gud option. However, u can personally invest in the ones u mentioned
