For lumpsum investments, if the investment period is less than 1 year then same return values are displayed for absolute & XIRR. For periods above 1 year, they are annualized. 1 Year is assumed as 365 days.
Returns for investments in income distribution cum capital withdrawal (IDCW) plans of schemes are calculated after assuming that the net income distribution cum capital withdrawal (IDCW) payouts post statutory taxes & levies, are re-invested back in the scheme.
Income distribution cum capital withdrawals (IDCW) declared from benchmark's constituents isn't taken into account when comparing with investment in fund's income distribution cum capital withdrawal (IDCW) plans.
Performance is always compared against the latest benchmark of the fund irrespective of the date of change of fund's benchmark, if any.
Except when SIP tenure is since inception, for all tenures, the start day for SIP investments is considered as 1st of every month. There is no end date to SIPs for the purpose of graphs.
For the purpose of NAV date applicability, if the investment date happens to be a non-business day, next business day's NAV is applied. Investment on inception date can happen on a non-business day.
Gold prices are available post 29 JAN, 2005 & are based on daily closing values on MCX.
Investment in gold has a strong global market demand and gold is highly liquid asset.
PPF interest rate is assumed at 8.7% p.a. & interest received is compounded daily for the returns illustration in the charts.
The comparison with PPF (and other traditional saving instruments/assets) has been given for the purpose of the general information only. Investments in mutual funds should not be construed as a promise, guarantee on or a forecast of any minimum returns. Unlike traditional saving instruments there is no capital protection guarantee or assurance of any return in mutual fund investment. Traditional savings instruments are comparatively low risk products and are generally backed by the Government. Investment in mutual funds carries high risk as compared to the traditional saving instruments and any investment decision needs to be taken only after consulting the Tax Consultant or Mutual Fund Distributor.
Past performance may or may not sustain in future and should not be used as a basis for comparison with other investments. There is no assurance of any returns/capital protection/capital guarantee to the investors in any scheme of DSP Mutual Fund.
Pursuant to payments of Income Distribution cum Capital Withdrawal, the NAV of the IDCW option(s) of Schemes would fall to the extent of payout, and statutory levy, if any.
The sector(s)/stock(s)/issuer(s) mentioned in this document do not constitute any recommendation of the same and the Fund may or may not have any future position in these sector(s)/stock(s)/issuer(s).
The investment approach / framework/ strategy / portfolio / other data mentioned herein are dated and currently followed by the scheme and the same may change in future depending on market conditions and other factors.
The SIP returns are calculated by XIRR approach assuming investment of Rs. 10,000/- on the 1st working day of every month. XIRR helps in calculating return on investments given an initial and final value and a series of cash infows and outflows with the correct allowance for the time impact of the transactions. Load is not taken into consideration for computation of performance.
