About Mutual Fund IPO's

Difference between a Mutual fund IPO and a Stock IPO.

Investors often think that mutual fund IPOs are the same as stock IPOs. However, there are some fundamental differences that they need to consider. The price of a stock is based on its supply and demand. IPO's often get listed at a premium because when a stock opens, its demand is most of the times much larger than its supply. This is not true for mutual funds because here a separate unit is created at the time of investment, which is destroyed at the time of redemption of the mutual fund units. Thus, the supply of mutual fund units is unlimited and so any appreciation in the value of a fund's NAV can never be due to an increase in the demand for a fund's units. Moreover, in case of mutual funds, your gains depend on how well the fund manager work or invest.

All things considered, it is generally a good idea to stay out of fund IPOs. A new fund is an untested entity without any track record. Your investment call will have to be made purely by looking at the fund manager and the AMC. Another issue is that of a possible opportunity loss. Your investments may be locked in for up to a month or more. This money could instead be kept in a liquid fund for a month and then invested once the fund opens for daily sale and repurchase post its IPO.

There are some exceptions to this. An obvious one is closed-end funds. Even though these are no longer in vogue, there are special funds called fixed maturity plans, which are similarly structured. If you want to invest in one of these, then the IPO may be the only option available.

Investors need to understand that mutual fund IPOs are purely a "marketing gimmick" that creates some excitement for the investiors mind. AMCs always communicate strongly during an IPO. A discerning investor should absorb this information carefully and invest later when the fund opens for sale and repurchase on an ongoing basis i.e. opt for an SIP (Systematic Investment Plan), which is the most effective one.

The property funds mentioned above are not open to small investors who can invest only a few thousands of rupees. Instead, they raise resources from institutions, banks and "high net worth" investors (HNI). The minimum investment limit for HDFC India Real Estate Fund is at Rs.5 crore. Given the venture fund structure, these funds are tax-neutral entities (they don't pay any tax). Returns are distributed on a project specific basis to investors.

Appreciation in value on developing a project may be distributed as capital gains to investors; rental receipts will be distributed in the form of dividends.

Given the long gestation periods involved in real estate ventures, investors in these funds need to be prepared for a long wait say around 4-5 Years. This is what the Fund manages believe.
