HDFC Fixed Maturity Plan Series IX – 20 Month Plan
Fixed Maturity Plan (FMP) – a closed ended Income Scheme - is similar to Bank Fixed Deposit. Just as Bank F.D., FMP also comes with fixed maturity like 3 months, 6 months, 365 days, 390 days and so on. FMP offers indicative return but a major advantage of FMP is it is more tax efficient than Bank F.D. This is a safe investment avenue compared to Equity as 100% investment is made in debt securities without any exposure to equities. As securities are held till maturity, it does not carry any interest rate risk and investment is made in safe instruments with AAA or AA+ credit ratings. FMP can be considered for debt component of investor's portfolio. Particularly in present market scenario where inflation is at very high level and investors are worried lot about their investment & investment avenues. Traditional debt avenues (Bank F.D) are not serving purpose of investment as after considering tax and inflation impact, investor makes very less money. On this background, Fixed Maturity Plan serves better purpose as it proves more tax efficient to investor as it is a mutual fund product and attracts favorable tax treatment compared to Bank F.D.
