masterandstudent-hdfc
HDFC Equity Fund, from one of the leading mutual fund house HDFC, was launched in 1995 and since then it has been one of the top performing fund in the multi-cap category. While there are many funds that have been performing over short and medium term, we look at this fund because of its excellent performance over longer period of time.

Snapshot of the fund:

HDFC Equity fund is relatively a large fund managing assets worth US$ 2b( about 10000cr), with S and P CNX 500 index as the benchmark. This fund is basically a multi-cap fund having financials and energy as the top sector holdings. The top holdings include State Bank of India, Icici Bank, ITC, Infy and Tatamotor DVRs. The fund has both dividend and growth option.

Performance:

The fund has given stupendous returns of 21% per annum since inception and its past 3 year and 5 year returns stand at 7% p.a. and 10% p.a. respectively, while the market has gone nowhere in the past 5 years. The 10-year Systematic Investment
Plan (SIP) has given returns of about 24% p.a and one couldn't ask for better performance.

Disciplined Systematic Investment in this fund has certainly generated very good  returns, for a passive investor. For the active investor, investments in this fund when markets are down sharply or during bearish phases will give you spectacular returns. It is one of the best funds to be in, for the long term.There is another equally good performing fund, HDFC Top 200 Fund and you can read more about it here HDFC Top 200 Fund



Soaring TBZL Shares
TBZL(Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri-Ltd.) shares managed to close at its life-time high price of almost Rs. 200 today. This stock has more than doubled than its lowest close price of Rs. 89 Rs. TBZL shares were issued at Rs. 120 in the IPO.
This stock started soaring after the news of its foray into Kolkata besides anticipation of higher sales during coming festival season. TBZL plans to open 43 new stores across India by 2015 and allocated Rs. 1200 crore for the same. India ratings, a Fitch group company, have recently affirmed TBZL’s rating at ‘IND BB+’ with a stable outlook.
TBZL’s fundamentals are not much satisfactory with its net profit margin (NPM) and current ratio below 5 and 1 respectively.  TBZL has been benefited by rising gold prices and the same is reflected in its sales.
Presently this stock is trading at a price to earnings multiple of 23.5 against the industry average of 10 and hence value investors should stay wary of this luring rally.
for more details IPO analysis of TBZL may be referred. 


The Last time I discussed NBCC was during its IPO period and since then many new events have been unfolded.

First, NBCC has been conferred a Miniratna status- a title given by the government of India to Public Sector Companies for their excellence which gives them more autonomy to grow- Miniratna status is lower in statute than Navrtana and Maharatna status.

Second, NBCC's financial results for the year FY 12 were satisfactory.
NBCC is a debt-free infrastructure development and real estate company and by this date has given a whopping 34 % return on its issue price of Rs. 106.
This stock is presently trading at around 9 times its Price-to-Earnings multiple and 2.1 times its Price-to Book value. NBCC has a robust order book and a land bank of 54 lakh square feet with significant presence in NCR (National Capital Region).
Even a conservative target for this company shall be around Rs. 180 (which is a further appreciation of 28% from the present  level) and this target could be achieved in next 1-1.5 year provided overall market does not go in a tailspin.
Private 'Real Estate Companies' marred by the allegations of indulging in the fraudulent nexus with politicians augurs well for this company.
If this stock starts falling with the overall market, one may start accumulating it with a medium to long term view in mind.
