Axis Small Cap vs Nippon Small Cap

I want to start to invest in small cap funds. After eliminating multiple funds, I have come down to these 2. Since Nippon has stopped lumpsum investment, I will be investing through SIP and keeping lumpsum to put when small cap become less overvalued. Not able to decide which one to invest in as many are planning to exit from Axis one. Need opinion as after analysis, they both share similar risk (in comparison to Quant).

Size of the fund (AUM) matters a lot in small caps. You can eliminate the fund which has the highest AUM in SC funds. Eg:SBI SC fund gave good returns when it started out. Now with so big AUM it isn't able to deliver high returns.

But because of high diversification in portfolio and great management, Nippon is able to give good returns with very high AUM. Thats why, confusion 😐

Do a 50-50 split then. SC funds: Diversifying away manager risk can help unless they have very high overlap. My 2 cents: SC will be/shud be very small allocation of your overall portfolio. Very high diversification (>50 names, with top 10 concentration<50%) isn't going to contribute meaningfully.

If it helps you can go to thefundoo.com/Tools/PortfolioOverlap to check for overlap between two mutual funds. That way you'll have a clearer picture of whether Axis is as good as Nippon (personally I put my money on Quant Smallcap MF though)

Its turnover ratio seem quite high. Want to divide the amount for SIP like 70% in either of the above and 30% in Quant If you know this ratio hasn't affected much and given returns in both type market, may increase its contribution.

Best Direct Sips

One of my relatives wanted to invest in SiPs. Asked my help coz am into direct stocks buying and USA market also. ( Made 10x in last 8y) So, i checked his phone and got only Paytm and phonepe through which I could have subscribed sips. But all of sudden I saw expenses like exit load and fund management 2% and 1% respectively. So, i referred grow and alas! The same charge reduced to 0.XY % ( x and y = 0,1...9) Then I researched little bit and got him these fund's. 5000 per month and 40% in large cap. ( Long term 15-20y plan) He can have moderate risk.( Got 3 kids, planning for their 20s) Please suggest if all these funds are fine or need to change something

Review my monthly SIP of 91k

Please evaluate my monthly equity SIP allocation and suggest any changes. Monthly in-hand salary (after tax): ₹2.6 lakh Age: 23 Monthly Mutual Fund SIP: - Total: ₹91,000 - Axis Small Cap: ₹5,000 - Axis Mid Cap: ₹10,000 - Parag Parikh Flexi Cap: ₹28,000 - ICICI Prudential Nifty 50 Index: ₹32,000 - Motilal Oswal Nasdaq 100 FoF: ₹16,000 The rest of my salary goes towards expenses, FDs, NPS, P2P investments, etc. I am also accumulating wealth in short-term investment products for a down payment as I plan to invest in a house next year (for rental income). Not willing to withdraw from mutual funds at least for the next 6-7 years, maybe even 10 years. Should I shift my mid-cap/small-cap SIPs rom Axis to Quant due to the hype around Quant AMC these days?

Where and how much are you saving/ investing per month?

I’ll go first. 1. What kind of investor are you? I am an opportunity investor, and I do buy good stocks whenever they are in reasonable valuations. Below are my monthly numbers. 2. Where’s the majority of your investment portfolio ? I have three RE investments and one of them has loan. And I’m planning to buy a property in Goa or HP. 3. What’s your monthly investment breakdown? 1.7L/ Month (approx) 60k - SIP (mutual funds) 60k - stocks (smallcase, us stocks using vested) 30k - as opportunity fund, this is transferred to a different bank account 10-20k - for experimental investments in crypto, nfts, and some trading. This is a new segment and I don’t have much experience in this and that’s why starting small here. 4. Anything else you want to share? I am learning to invest on a daily basis. Reading, videos and podcasts are my sources. Some of my tops picks are Whiteboard finance (Marko), My first Million and Smart Passive Income, finance with Saran, and Akshat Shrivastava.
