Quant Small Cap Fund: Nearly doubling of SIP Money

Money invested in the Quant Small Cap Fund has given a bountiful to readers. If you had to start SIPs somewhere in January of 2020, by investing Rs 10,000 every month it would be worth Rs 6.96 lakhs. This means you invested Rs 3.6 lakhs and are getting Rs 6.96 lakhs back 3-years later. That is massive gains of 93.4%.

We normally refrain from making buy and sell calls for mutual funds. But, let's get some facts together and than investors can decide on what they would like to do. To begin with, if you have made such huge profits and decide not to take at least partial money out, it may not be a wise idea. Secondly, to expect similar returns in the next few years would be a little far-fetched. It is hard for any analysts or seasoned investor to say with certain amount of confidence that past track record means best returns for the future. In the past we have seen mutual fund schemes that have not performed, suddenly performing and ones that were laggards doing well. We would suggest SIPs, if you would like to invest as lumpsum can be risky.
