Cost of Delay Explained 

Cost of Delay Explained 

There is a widespread notion amongst investors that the reward will be higher if you invest at the right time. Now, the question arises: what is the right time to start investing? Some might feel it is too early, some might feel it is too late, but the answer to this most asked question is the right time to start investing is NOW, i.e. the moment you decide to invest.  At the outset, let us first differentiate between saving and investing. Consider two siblings Ram and Lakhan.  Ram, as a child, is passionate about filling his piggy bank, so he puts all his pocket money in it. Here, what Ram is doing is Saving.  On the other hand, Lakhan gives all his pocket money to his mom, who puts that money in a mutual fund on his behalf, where the savings will multiply with time. Here, what Lakhan is doing with his mother’s help is Investing.   When we compare here, Lakhan will get a larger corpus than Ram after 15 years, as he will benefit from compounding! It is like your money is earning money for you!  The earlier you start and stay invested, the more time your money will get to grow and compound. When an investment gets delayed, investors see a significant impact on their investment. This is because the delay caused takes away the time available for compounding. This eventually creates a shortfall when it comes to meeting financial goals like retirement, a child's education, marriage, etc.   For better understanding, let us consider the example of two friends – Raju and Farhan, who want to create their retirement corpus. We assume the retirement age is 60, and both invest Rs. 2,000 a month at a return of 12%. Raju started early when he was 25, and Farhan started when he was 30.   Table 1   InvestorAge Term (years) Investment Amount (INR) Future Total Value at Retirement (INR) Raju 25 35 8,40,000 1,29,90,538 Farhan 30 30 7,20,000 70,59,828  Even though both have earned the same rate of returns per annum on their investment, Raju, who started investing early, has a considerably higher corpus at retirement.   To understand the cost of delay for Farhan, let us consider that Raju stops his monthly investment at age 55, i.e., a 30-year period, same as Farhan and let the accumulated amount compound till he retires at 60.  Table 2: Hypothetical Scenario Name Investment term Investment amount Future Total Value at Retirement (INR) Cost of Delay Raju 30 7,20,000 1,24,41,828 53,82,000  Given that both invested the same amount, but because Farhan started five years later, he lost out on returns of Rs. 53,82,000. Shocking, isn’t it? Therefore, starting the investment journey early is a boon if you want to build a considerable corpus for your financial goals.  Akin to the hare and tortoise story, slow and steady investments that start early will help you achieve your financial goals comfortably. In a nutshell, be mindful of these few things while investing:   Start today – Even if your investment amount is small, today is the best day to start.  Invest regularly – Make regular investments through SIP or lumpsum as and when you have money. Stay invested through market volatility, keeping your financial goal in mind. Invest with discipline, and most importantly, be patient to see the wave of compounding around your investment.  Join our robust WhatsApp Community that helps parents invest! By now, we know that delaying investments can impose a huge opportunity cost. Timing the markets is a tempting proposition. Still, over the years, multiple research reports have shown that the costs incurred from waiting for the ideal moment to invest generally outweigh the potential benefits of perfectly timed investments. Systematically investing over a period, in the long run, is a proven mantra for wealth creation. Always prioritize initiating investments at the earliest opportunity available.   Please consult your financial advisor before making any investment decisions, and happy investing!  Start early to save big!
Mutual Fund Fees and Expenses 

Mutual Fund Fees and Expenses 

Sometime back, I encountered a mythological tale from the Mahabharata depicting the narrative of Draupadi, who married five husbands. The story told how Draupadi had asked Shiva for a husband with five qualities - virtue, strength, learning, charm and wisdom. Since no single man could possess all five traits, Shiva gave her five husbands, each with one trait. Similarly, in investing, we would like to have a singular option that provides a plethora of benefits, such as higher returns, reduced risk, professional management, no lock-in period, and accessibility. Luckily, here we have mutual funds to our rescue. Let's look at mutual funds, how they work, and the mutual fund fees and expenses to consider before you embark on your investing journey! Join our robust WhatsApp Community that helps parents invest! What is a Mutual Fund?  A mutual fund is a trust that pools the savings of several investors who share a common investment rationale. Fund managers associated with schemes manage the investors’ money by investing in securities to generate returns and charge fees for that return generated. The remaining return is passed on to the investors. A mutual fund investment involves several expenses, and you, as an investor, should be aware of these fees.   Cost of Delay Explained What are the fees associated with Mutual Fund Investment?  Here are all the mutual fund fees and expenses that you need to be aware of before you start your SIP (monthly) or place a one-time order. Entry load Entry load is the amount or fees an investor pays while entering the scheme. Entry load is collected to cover costs of distribution by the company. Earlier, different mutual fund houses charged different fees as entry load. However, according to the latest SEBI regulations, no fund house can charge an entry load from investors.  Exit load Exit load is the amount that Asset Management Companies (AMCs) charge when an investor is exiting or redeeming their funds. It is a fee charged by the fund house as a penalty for an early exit. The primary objective behind these fees is to discourage investors from pulling out their investments too early. The exit load differs from scheme to scheme. Generally, in India, equity schemes attract an exit load of 1% if the units are redeemed within a year from the date of allotment.  Transaction charges This charge is levied on an individual when they make investments. On average, a transaction cost of 100- 150 is levied on investments worth 10,000 and above. If investments are less than 10,000, then it does not attract these charges. Further, the government collects 0.005% of the overall purchase amount of all mutual fund schemes as stamp duty.   Expense ratio The expense ratio is the fees mutual fund companies charge to manage the mutual funds. It is expressed as a percentage of total capital invested. An expense ratio for an actively managed portfolio generally lies in the range of 0.5% to 0.75%; an expense ratio greater than 1.5% is considered very high.  For example, if the expense ratio is 0.5%, it implies that an annual payment is Rs. 50 is charged for every 10,000 invested. Here, it is essential to understand that the expense ratio is an annual fee charged if an investor retains ownership of the fund annually. Though presented as an annual fee, the amount is deducted daily on a pro-rata basis. When investors invest in regular schemes through distributors or brokers, AMCs pay these mediators a commission, hence in such cases the expense ratio will be higher.  Taxation on capital gains provided by Mutual Funds Knowing about taxes on your mutual fund investments is crucial. Profits from mutual fund investments are taxable. The holding period and type of mutual fund affect the tax rate on capital gains. The holding period refers to the time investors hold units in mutual funds.   Summary of Taxation of Mutual Funds for units to be acquired on or after 01st April 2023  Particulars Allocation of the Scheme to Domestic Equities is Less than or equal to 35% More than 35% but less than or equal to 65% More than 65% Type of Capital Gain Short term irrespective of the holding period Long term if units are held for more than 36 months Long term if units are held for more than 12 months Tax Rate Slab rate LTCG^ - 20% with the benefit of indexation LTCG - 10% of gains exceeding Rs. 1 lakh without indexation benefit - STCG^ - Slab Rate STCG - 15%       Note: Surcharge and Education Health and Education Cess are applicable separately   STCG – Short-Term Capital Gain and LTCG – Long-Term Capital Gain  Remember to account for fees and expenses when investing. Awareness about all the charges you pay throughout your investment journey is necessary. Understanding these costs is crucial because it ensures transparency, impacts returns, helps manage costs and aids risk assessment. Thereby helping you better plan your financial goals.  Start Investing!

Which investment is best for your child’s future? 

Which investment is best for your child’s future? 

Financial planning is crucial when discussing the ideal investment to secure your child's future. Parents strive to provide their children with the best financial stability. Rightly planning out costs and selecting suitable investment options is one of the most effective techniques for achieving this goal.   The cost of education in India has been rising significantly. Studies suggest that the inflation in the education sector has been between 11-12 % annually over the last decade. These figures indicate that the costs of school can double every six to seven years. Creating a robust financial cushion is the best approach to beat this growing education inflation. Several options in India are designed specially to cater to the needs of children.   Investing in your child's future is a significant responsibility of a parent. It is crucial to make informed decisions while selecting any option. Here are the investment options available.  Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana: This Yojana is a government supported initiative and it was launched as a part of the “Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao” campaign. Here, the investment value is a Minimum of 250 and a Maximum of 1.5 lakh per annum. The current interest rate is 8.2% per annum. The maturity duration is 21 years from the account opening or upon the daughter's marriage. Investors get tax benefits under Section 80C, and also the interest and maturity values are tax-free.  Real Estate: Apart from investing only in property, one can now invest in REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) and Real Estate Funds. Investing in REITs provides substantial dividend income and delivers steady capital appreciation over the long term.  Gold: Indian households are famous for investing in physical gold. Alternatively, parents can also choose between gold ETFs and sovereign gold bonds (SGBs) as a promising avenue for long-term investment. These avenues can be more profitable than physical gold as one saves costs on making charges and misses out on the 2.5% annual interest received on SGBs (2023-24 series IV SGBs).   Bank deposits: Historic tools of investment available in the market to earn regular and steady returns. Parents can invest for a more extended period; however, the return on it will not beat the rising inflation with the nominal return it delivers.  Mutual Funds: In mutual funds, we have options based on individual financial position, time horizon and risk tolerance. Equity mutual fund investments rank high among children's investment plans. As we know, mutual funds deliver better returns than other investment options available in the market. Historically, it has provided 12%-15% annualized returns.   Join our WhatsApp Community! We'd like to point out that mutual fund investments offer distinct advantages over real estate, gold, and fixed deposits. They provide diversification, liquidity, and professional management, reducing risk while potentially offering higher returns. Unlike real estate, mutual funds require a lower initial investment and entail no maintenance costs. Compared to gold, they tend to offer greater returns and accessibility. Additionally, mutual funds typically outperform fixed deposits, offering the potential for inflation-beating returns over the long term.  With proper planning and strategies as an investor, one can make decisions that accurately reflect investing goals. An investor can set a step-up SIP to get better returns. With mutual funds, the longer you stay invested, the better you will get.  Learn about asset allocation in 2 mins! Benefits of investing in a mutual fund Mutual funds are managed by fund managers who have professional expertise. A fund manager continuously monitors the investors' investment and rebalances the portfolio to meet the objectives.   Mutual fund investments offer an easy way to diversify your investment portfolio. With the benefit of diversification, the risk associated with one security is countered by others. By investing here, investors will ensure they are not putting all their eggs in one basket.  For many investors, investing directly in an asset class requiring large amounts can be daunting. A mutual fund provides the benefit of investing in small amounts. An investor can start investing with as little as 100 rupees investment in a mutual fund.  Mutual funds are also on the liquid end of the spectrum; an investor can redeem the amount quickly if required. Redemptions are settled on a T+3 basis. Mutual funds also provide tax benefits under section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961, if you choose to invest in ELSS funds. Mutual fund investments are tax-efficient when held for a longer period.  Join our WhatsApp community to learn more! If you read this, you would have understood that there is no single definition of 'best investment for kids'; instead, it is based on your future financial requirements, time horizon, and risk appetite. As a parent, remember to diversify, rebalance, and reallocate your investments periodically. Doing this will significantly reduce the effect of market volatility on your portfolio. If you are a young parent and starting the investment journey for your kids, consider investing in equity as an early investor to get relatively higher returns. Remember to bring discipline to savings and stay invested for the longer term.  If you are a parent looking for the best investment options for your kid's future, you are at the right place.

Did you know that international students have to pay college fees on top of tuition fees to study at Cambridge University? This is why you need to save to send your child to Cambridge University. UK’s oldest and top institute with the lowest acceptance rate and skyrocketing tuition fees – getting admission at this college is not enough. From expensive tuition costs to living expenses costing £12,400 on average (11-12 lakhs yearly), the need to invest and save is urgent! Suppose, if your child goes for an MBA in this university, he or she will have to pay Rs 58 to 59 lakhs per year for tuition fees. Similarly, if your child is going for BTech or MBBS here, he or she will have to pay somewhere around Rs 33 – 58 lakhs per year for tuition fees. How do you need to save to send your child to Cambridge?  1. Preparing an education fund  Preparing an education fund helps in growing your financial corpus. You can do this by investing in financial assets which have a longer-term plan. These plans include mutual funds, ETFs, and so on. Start by deciding your monthly budget. Choose an investment plan which suits your need and budget. Make sure that you do not invest in a plan which offers low returns. ULIPs are a really good option if you are saving up for your child’s education at the University of Cambridge.   Public Provident Fund is another great option that you can go for. Parents prefer going for PPF because it provides a specific interest rate and is extremely secure. Apart from this, you must always prepare a long-term investment option.   Start Investing in Mutual Funds 2. Balanced investment options  Fixed deposits are great ways to invest but do not beat inflation. You cannot rely on them for the long term since they provide fixed returns of 5-6% while inflation in the current economy averages around 7-8%. The chances are that as an investor, you will lose the opportunity to gain from the markets.   Equity funds will be a good option for you if you start early as a parent. Around eight to ten years are required for you to build the right amount of corpus. You can go for SIPs in equity funds because they have a good return value and do not require heavy sums of money in one go.   Equity exposure until five years to the date of maturity can prove to be extremely beneficial. In the last decade, equity mutual funds have delivered an average return of 15%.   If you consider yourself a moderate-risk investor, you can still invest 60% to 70% of your total investment amount in equities. Make sure that you have a sufficiently long investing horizon so that you can counter crashes and volatility. Remember investing is risky but a good plan and a great advisor can help you manage your money better even in the worst climate.    Start Investing in US Market 3. Aggressive investment options  Equity investment leads to higher risk but also good returns. If you want to add more options to your portfolio, you can go for aggressive investments. In such a type of investment option, the investor takes on more risk to that he or she can achieve a higher potential return. Investing in stocks is a way of doing so. Although it is quite volatile and requires daily inspection, it has the potential to offer a chance for greater gains when compared to other types of investment.   Some other types of aggressive investment options are stock mutual funds, real estate investment trusts, hedge funds, emerging markets, small-cap stock funds, private equity, foreign stocks, global funds, and so on.  There are many ways to save to send your child to Cambridge but all start with smart planning for the right cost with the right experts.
