ICICI PRU LONG TERM EQUITY - A ELSS Fund

ICICI PRUDENTIAL LONG TERM EQUITY FUND- Invest Online
 
A ELSS Fund
 
The hallmark of this equity-linked savings scheme is its consistent outperformance. Even though the fund has struggled over the past year, it has a stellar long-term track record. Like most of its category peers, it straddles all market capitalisations and shifts allocation according to changes in their relative valuations.The fund manager adopts an uncon strained, benchmark-agnostic approach in executing the fund's strategy. Although the fund is not known for scorching the performance charts, it has managed to contain the downside well. On the flip side, the fund manager tends to churn the portfolio aggressively. Investors can, however, opt for this fund because of its proven track record.
