Tata AMC Emerging Opportunities Investment Approach

Scheme Rating

IME Scheme Rating

The Scheme does not meet our selection criteria at this time

Not a recommended fund: This is not a recommended fund, primarily because the AMC does not meet our selection criteria. We believe that there are better fund houses to invest in, within the Indian fund universe.

IME Strategy Rating

Midcap Focused: The portfolio would invest predominantly in mid-cap-cap stocks. Stock selection would be based on various valuation parameters and the attempt would be to invest in stocks that are available at a reasonable valuation with higher growth visibility. The strategy is not tightly defined, which does have it’s pros & cons. While a loosely defined strategy does allow the fund manager the flexibility to change portfolio positioning based on the market environment, we prefer greater clarity on how the portfolios are likely to be constructed.

PMS Scheme Ratings are driven by IME’s Proprietary Scheme Rating Methodology, which takes into account our ratings of the Scheme’s investment strategy, its maturity, the investment team, and our separate rating on the AMC that runs this particular scheme. Our views on each of these individual criteria are available via the IME RMS – which you can view by reaching out to one of our relationship managers (using either the live chat or book appointment feature on this site).

AMC

AMC: Tata AMC PMS (click link for detailed AMC review)

Not a top recommendation due to being an MF-driven PMS: Typically MF driven PMS's benefit from the distribution & research strengths of the mutual fund. However, Tata MF has struggled to scale relative to the value of its brand and the PMS division is more an off-shoot than a strong independent arm. Until the PMS business is not more clearly defined and given a greater degree of focus, we do not recommend investments in Tata PMS.
