How to create wealth in short term-Illustration(Part2)

Read this first to understand the below illustration...

Scenario 1 – Lowest recorded unit purchase in the next 12 months.
Age – 30
Net Invested Premium – 1lac p.a,
Premium paying term – 5yrs
Plan Term – 10yrs

1st year Net invested premium is 1lac and assuming the unit price at the time of entering into the plan is 10rs.
Assuming that in the next 12 months, the unit price of the fund touched a low of 6rs and ended at 11.50rs.
Instead of normal unit allocation of 10000units, you will get units purchased at the rate of 6rs.
So you will get 16667 units in the 1st year.

2nd year Net invested premium is 1lac and the unit price at the time of purchase is 11.50rs.
Assuming that in the next 12 months, the unit price of the fund increased and ended at 13.50rs.
You will get units purchased at the rate of 11.50rs.
So you will get 8696units in the 2nd year.

3rd year Net invested premium is 1lac and the unit price at the time of purchase is 13.50rs.
Assuming that in the next 12 months, the unit price of the fund decreased and ended at 9.75rs.
You will get units purchased at the rate of 9.75rs.
So you will get 10256 units in the 3rd year.

4th year Net invested premium is 1lac and the unit price at the time of purchase is 9.75rs.
Assuming that in the next 12 months, the unit price of the fund increased and ended at 14.75rs.
You will get units purchased at the rate of 9.75rs.
So you will get 10256 units in the 4th year.

5th year Net invested premium is 1lac and the unit price at the time of purchase is 14.75rs.
Assuming that in the next 12 months, the unit price of the fund increased and ended at 18.50rs.
You will get units purchased at the price of 14.75rs.
So you will get 6780 units in the 5th year.

Now total of all the units accumulated is 52655.
The NAV at the end of 5th year is 18.50rs.
So fund value= total number of units*Current unit price
52655*18.50=974117.50

Almost close to double the invested amount in this illustration!!!
Scenario 2 – Highest recorded NAV in the last 7yrs.

As in the above illustration, we could see that at the end of 5th year the NAV price is at 16.50rs.
Assuming that in the next 2 years, if the NAV peaks to 22rs and comes back to 18rs also.
You will get, total number of units*Highest recorded NAV in last 7years.
52655*22=1158410.

Scenario 3 – Unit Price at maturity.

At the time of maturity if the NAV is 30rs, which is higher than the other 2 scenarios mentioned above.
You will get, total number of units*Unit price at maturity.
52655*30=1579650.

So an investment of Rs.500, 000 will give you Rs.1, 579,650/- within a period of 10years!!!

The above mentioned profits are completely tax free!!!

Above all these benefits, if you pay 5 premiums at once you will get 10% of the total premiums as cash back on the spot!!!

Please note that all the above mentioned figures are only for understanding and for illustration purpose only and the returns may vary depending on the invested amount and market fluctuations.

How to create wealth in short term

Hey All,

First of all I would like to thank each one of you for your continuous interest in my blog, I started this blog just one month back and now look at the page views…its almost 1000!!!
This means that I am writing about something which is actually worth reading and investing…That thought alone gives me immense happiness…

My first Post “Baap of Magic Plans” still attracts and amuses so many people that few of my clients who are working in some of the top IT companies in the world told these words…”Subhash, It is too good to be True”…This is not only their opinion, but of many people whom I met keeps telling me the same thing…However once I show them how it works and how it can benefit them, I can see the smile in their face…A smile which says that they have found an investment plan which is worth investing after all…

Recently I met a client who told me that he would rather be interested in a shorter term investment instead of planning for a retirement as he had already planned well in advance for his retirement needs…He said “Subhash, Life is for Living, Blow me up with some short term investment plan”…I gave him a Plan and it literally blew him up!!!

So now I am presenting you all the same investment idea!!! This time with an eye on people who are looking for shorter term…
Hope you all will enjoy it…

(PS: This post may be bit lengthy but I know that if you are really concerned about your money and want to get the best out of it, you may not mind reading each and every line…)

How to create WEALTH in Short term?

Work Hard…….Really Hard…..



Or

Work Smart…..Really smart + Make your money work harder…


Now the million dollar question is….

How will you make your money work harder for you???

Yes….The answer is “By making Right Investment Decisions”



Okay, so that’s it, making right investment decisions is enough correct???

No…Making right investment decisions ON TIME are required…



We have been hearing from a very early age about some conventional theories that say “We should not put all our eggs in one basket”...



So what happens if we put all our eggs in one basket?



It breaks!!!

So what should we do then?



Diversify!!!

Put your money in different baskets, so that even if one basket falls you will have the remaining baskets to cover your interests…

When we talk about short term investment Baskets, these things will come to our mind…
1)Mutual Funds
2)SIP’s
3)Shares and stocks
4)ETF’s
5)FD’s
6)Small Savings in Chits and cooperative societies.

The First four short term investment mentioned above belongs to “Equity” Family



and the last Two belong to “Conventional or Traditional” Family…



We all know that investing in conventional or traditional investment for short term will always give you low or moderate investment returns…



As we spoke about making our money work harder, we shall concentrate on Equity based investments which will give you moderate to very high investment returns…

So when it comes to Equity based investments, what exactly would we want to do to make Profits???

It’s very simple!!!

We would want to buy equities at the lowest price when the market is down…



And, Sell those equities at the highest price when the market picks up!!!

Yes, it sounds very simple, but as we all know it is not that simple as it sounds…

Let me explain…

What exactly would we look for when choosing an equity based investment???
1)S-Safety
2)L-Liquidity
3)R-Returns
4)F-Flexibility +



Guarantee!!!

In most of the cases, a carefully chosen equity based investment will offer one or the other things mentioned in the above list, but not all!!!

If you ask your portfolio manager or an investment banker for suggestions or advice to help you chose an equity based investment plan from the above list, he would suggest you to buy an SIP!!!

What is an SIP???



Why SIP is so attractive???



SIP – Systematic Investment Plan

How it works – SIP is a systematic investment means to tap the volatility of the market…To put it in simple words - It is a monthly investment mutual fund scheme. It will help you to buy mutual fund units regularly at the current market price which in turn will appreciate during the term and help you make profits.

Let me give you a small example.

Mr. X decides to invest in an SIP with a monthly contribution of Rs.10000/-
In the First month the Net Asset Value (NAV) Price is Rs.10/-
So he gets 10000/10=1000 Units.

In the Second month the NAV price is Rs.12/-
So he gets 10000/12=833 Units.

In the Third month the NAV price is Rs.8/-
So he gets 10000/8=1250 Units.

In the Fourth Month the NAV price is Rs.7/-
So he gets 10000/7=1429 Units.

In the Fifth Month the NAV price is Rs.10/-
So he gets 10000/10=1000 Units.

In the Sixth Month the NAV price is Rs.13/-
So he gets 10000/13=769 Units.

So now if we calculate the total investment, Mr. X has invested Rs.60000/-
He has 6281 Units and the current unit price in the sixth month is Rs.13/-
Average unit price for the past 6 months – Rs.10/-
Calculation to arrive on the fund value,
Total number of units*Current unit price=Fund value…
6281*13=81653.

So Mr. X has a fund value of rs.81653/- in his SIP account. He made Rs.21653/- profit on an investment of Rs.60000/-!!!



Why think of anything else??? This should be the best equity based investment plan in the market then???

Wait…There should be some drawbacks as well…

What are the drawbacks of SIP???

1) The best an SIP could do is average out the unit cost as illustrated in the above example.
2) It will not tap the entire downside or upside of the market as desired by every investor. (Buy low, Sell High)
3) It does not give you tax benefits while withdrawing your profits. (You loose a major chunk of profit in paying tax)
4) It takes lot of research and homework to zero in on a good SIP or else your unit price may remain stagnant for a considerable time which will impact your profits.
5) Past performances are not a benchmark or assurance for future performance!!!(Almost all major mutual fund houses have proved it time and again).The reason I raised this point is because almost all mutual fund houses project their past performances as a major selling point instead of projecting their asset allocation…

Even I agree that SIP is one of the most powerful tools to beat the inflation and tap the volatility of the market, but is it the best available method??? Is there any other Investment which could give better returns than SIP???

Welcome to my Investment strategy!!!



I think everyone of us knows this game, you climb up when you reach the bottom of the ladder and you climb down when you reach the mouth of the snake…

Investment nowadays seems to perfectly relate to this Game!!! A small difference would be that today in the market we have many snakes but few ladders!!!



What if I say that my investment strategy will make the snake also to work as a ladder!!!



That is…

We all know that if the Market Grows – Our money also will grow.



What if the Market Falls??? – Still our money will grow!!!



Presenting you a one of its kind investment plan in the entire Industry!!!
This has no competition in the entire equity segment industry…

A magical plan which guarantees you that you will make profit and only profit, irrespective of Market fluctuations!!!
A magical plan which guarantees you that you do not have to wait to time the market, we will do it for you!!!

How it works???

Let us take the same example of how Mr. X made profits in SIP investment…

Scroll up and you will find that Mr. X had invested Rs.60000/- in 6 months and made Rs.21653/- as profit by investing in an SIP…
So total fund value stands at Rs.81653/-(Including investment amount of Rs.60000/-)

What if he had invested as per my suggestion in this Magical plan???
Considering the same illustration shown above, Mr. X would have invested Rs.60000/- in 6 months and would have made a profit of Rs.51429/-!!!
So total fund value stands at Rs.111429/-!!!(Including investment amount of Rs.60000/-)



Unbelievable!!! Is it???

Till now you and your Investment banker thought SIP is the best investment tool available in the market…

Okay, let me tell you how it works…

The magical plan which I showed you purchases units on the lowest recorded unit price in the past 12 months; this directly gives you an advantage of buying units at the lowest price…

Let us take an example,

Mr. X invested Rs.100000/- in this plan in the month of January, The unit price in the month of January is at Rs.10.50/-
In the month of March the unit price went up to Rs.13/-
In the month of June the unit price went down to Rs.8/-
In the month of August the unit price further went down to Rs.7/-
In the month of October the markets recovered and unit price went up to Rs.11/-
Finally in the month of December the unit price stands at Rs.12.50/-

In a normal Mutual fund case, you could claim a profit of Rs.2/- per unit in a span of 12 months as Mr. X would have been allotted units at the price of Rs.10.50/- and the NAV went up to Rs.12.50/-!!!
You could be happy that Mr. X earned almost Rs.20000/- profit on an investment of Rs.100000/-!!!

But as Mr. X had taken this magical plan, He would have received the unit allotment at the price of Rs.7/-…
And as at the year end the unit price was Rs.12.50/-, you would be eagerly waiting to know how much Mr. X had made from this investment right???
Mr. X made a whopping Rs.78571/- profit on his investment of Rs.100000/-!!!



This way of investment pattern will continue for the next 5 yrs and till the term of 10yrs…
At the end of 10 yrs,
Mr. X will get Fund value as Follows,
Fund value=Total No of units*Unit price decided as below…

Mr. X would be allotted units at the lowest recorded unit price every year in the past 12 months...
OR

Mr. X would be Given the Highest NAV recorded in last 7years of the plan…

OR

Mr. X will be Given the Current Unit price at maturity…

Whichever is Higher out of these 3 options mentioned above!!!

Mr. X can ensure that he really do not have to worry about the timing of entry into the plan to make profits!!!

(The above profits are just a rough calculation and it will definitely change from person to person)

Now let us come to the fine prints of this plan…

The Investment amount in this plan is capped at minimum Rs.100000/- and maximum…Any amount is welcome subject to specific requirements…

The Investment term is only 5yrs and the plan term is 10yrs…

Single pay option is also available with a minimum investment amount of Rs.200000/-…

Any person till the age of 60yrs can take this Magical plan…

Advance premium payment option is also available- If you pay 5 yrs premium at once, you will get 10% cash back on the spot!!!

Financial protection for your loved ones in case of uncertainty during the plan term…

Unlimited partial withdrawals after 5 years to meet your unexpected financial expenses…

Addition to all these above mentioned benefits, you will also be getting tax benefits on the investment amount and withdrawal amount as well!!!

I can see some surprised, excited and confused faces…I have tried my best to explain the best investment product (with the most complicated investment strategy) in a simplified language.

For those who found difficulties in understanding the post in the present manner can click here…I have explained the same concept in figures about this Magical plan…It will be very easy for people who are not particularly aware of the equity investments as it is in a descriptive manner.

So now what???



You can post your specific queries here in the comments section so that it would be helpful for others who are looking for the same answer as yours…



I will be happy to address your concern and ensure that you buy this investment plan with zero doubt and 100% satisfaction…

Indian GDP Update for Q1 FY '12

Hey All, the below news will keep you updated on the real growth in some sectors and will make you wary of people who gives u fake informations...Hope you all will like it...

The real GDP grew at 7.7% during Q1FY12 (versus 7.8% last quarter and 8.8% Q1FY11). This growth is substantial considering the high base from last year. Agriculture, Industry and Services grew at 3.9%, 5.1% and 10%, respectively as compared to 2.4%, 10.5% and 9.6%. The headline number was supported by robust growth in ‘Electricity, gas and water supply’ at 7.9%, ‘trade, hotels, transport and communication’ at 12.8%, ‘financing, insurance, real estate and business services’ at 9.1%.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation (DAC), the production of crops - rice, wheat, coarse cereals and pulses during the Rabi season have recorded growth rates of 11.3%, 6.3%, 0.7% and 4.9%, respectively. ‘Agriculture’ sector grew by 3.9% in Q1FY12 v/s 2.4% last year and 7.5% in Q4FY11.

Industry sector grew by 5.1% during Q1FY12 as compared 10.5% last year and 6.1% in Q4FY11. The Manufacturing and Electricity, gas, water supply showed robust growth of 7.2% and 7.9% respectively in Q1FY12 (10.6% and 5.5% in Q1FY11 and 5.5% and 7.8% in Q4FY11). Mining registered sluggish Q1FY12 growth at 1.8% (as reflected in IIP numbers). Industry sector growth for FY12 will likely settle at 7.5-7.75% levels.

Service sector continued its strong growth of 10% v/s 9.6% in Q1FY11 and 8.7% in Q4FY11. The sub-segment – Trade, Hotels, Transport and Communication grew robust by 12.8% v/s 12.1% last year and 9.3% in Q4FY11. Financing, Insurance, Real estate and Business services – continues its strong pace of growth with 9.1% growth during the quarter as compared 9.8% last year and 9% last quarter. The sub-segment – Community, Social & Personal Services slowed down significantly sequentially to 5.6% v/s 8.2% last year and 7% in Q4FY11.

For Q1FY12 Private Final Consumption Expenditure (PFCE) grew at 6.3% v/s 8% in Q4FY11 and 8.8% in Q1FY11. We believe increase in core inflation to have impacted PFCE spend in Q1. In our view, PFCE spend remained inconsistent in FY11 and this parameter will be a key monitorable in FY12 to assess the demand in the economy. Government Final Consumption Expenditure (GFCE) continues to slide, coming in at 2.1% v/s 4.8% growth for Q4FY11. In Q1FY12 Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) registered strong 7.9% growth v/s 0.4% last quarter.

Going ahead in FY12 we expect manufacturing sector to register sluggish growth in H1FY12 on account of high base effect. With inflation expected to remain elevated in the coming fiscal and the impact of tight monetary policy, we believe growth in the manufacturing sector will be impacted. With growth expected to bounce back in H2FY12 we estimate manufacturing to post growth of ~7.5-7.75% for the fiscal. Services sector will continue to perform strong in FY12 and is expected to grow at ~9%. We expect agriculture to revert to trend / mean growth and post a 3.5% growth. Overall, we expect FY12 GDP growth to be around 7.9%.

Baap Of Magic Plans

Hey All,

Please find below a calculation which i have done by using an excel.

There are some LIC Agents who are selling insurance plans called Magic plan-Retire and enjoy.I have proved here that my investment idea can beat their so called magic plan hands down.Below is the sample illustration for a person aged 26 years and planning an investment of 1 lac approximately every year for his retirement planning.

I have named it "Baap Of Magic Plans"...


Hope you all will like it.

Investment type-Traditional/conventional

Market exposure- No

Investment amount - 1.05 + 0.05 lac per annum

Total investment amount - 1.1 lac per annum

Investment period - 1.05 lac for only 15yrs!!! and 0.05 lac for 30yrs.

So total investment amount from you is only Rs.1725000/-!!!!!

Expected return on Investment - From your 56th birthday you can take
home 10lac!! every year as a pension amount till your 80th birthday
and once you reach your 80th birthday you can take home 12 lac
approximately as a lump-sum and the plan will get closed.

Death Benefit - In case of death before your 56th birthday,your family
will receive 30 lac insurance money plus the accumulated money in the
pension fund.

For example - In case if death happens on 50th year,your nominee will
receive 30 lac insurance money plus 50 lac approximately from your
pension fund!!!

In case of death after 56 the birthday,your family will receive 12 lac
plus remaining balance from your pension fund.

For example - In case if death happens on 65th birthday, you would
have received 10 lac for 10 years as pension,so total 1 crore you have
used for yourself and your nominee will receive 12 lac insurance money
plus 85 lac approximately from your pension fund.

I have suggested you an investment theory which is absolutely
conventional and secure.You have to just invest in 3 different plans
to get these benefits.

Do let me know if you would like to take this for yourself.
