If you take an SIP of Rs 10,000 in Tata Small Cap Fund and Tata Infrastructure Fund, under direct growth plan options, you can earn returns as high as 52.66% in just three years. Both the funds are the top-performing equity schemes from the fund house. The details of each are given below.
1. Tata Infrastructure Fund
Buying an SIP in Tata Infrastructure Fund - Direct Growth plan will provide you with a return of 43.9%. For a total investment of Rs 3.6 lakh, you build a corpus of Rs 5.18 lakh in three years. This scheme allows a minimum SIP investment amount of Rs 150 and is available in Income Distribution cum Capital Withdrawal (IDCW) and regular plans as well.

About Tata Infrastructure Fund
Tata Infrastructure Fund was launched as early as November 2004 to capitalise on the vibrant Indian economy which has grown on the strength of the positives exhibited by the infrastructure sector. It aims to focus predominantly on sectors that have the potential of creating long-term value from the expected investments in Infrastructure oriented sectors.
It is an equity scheme that has 96.41% investment in domestic equities of which 38.04% is in large cap stocks, 27.68% is in mid-cap stocks and 22.68% is in small cap stocks. The remaining is into cash and equivalents (2.7%).
Being a sectoral equity fund it has 64.37% exposure to infra-related top three sub-sectors which are capital goods, construction and energy. Yet, at the same time, the scheme has very high risk because of the concentrated exposure largely to only one sector.
Suitability
Investing in an infrastructure fund means a lack of diversification, if the sector faces challenging times, so will your investments. Hence one should not allocate more than 10% of the portfolio to this fund category.
This fund is suitable for investors who are aware of advanced knowledge of macro trends and know-how of infrastructure. At the same time, these investors should also be ready for the possibility of moderate to extremely high losses in their investments even though the overall market is performing better. So, if you invest, be prepared to stay invested for at least 7+ years.
