Key Insights on SBI Magnum SIF
- Investment Objective: The fund aims to generate regular income through derivative strategies and long-term capital appreciation from limited unhedged equity exposure. It seeks returns higher than traditional fixed deposits with lower volatility than conventional hybrid funds.
- Fund Strategy: Employing a "hybrid long-short" approach, the fund invests across equities, debt, money market instruments, and REITs/InvITs to potentially perform in varying market conditions.
- Target Investor: It is intended for high-net-worth individuals (HNIs) and experienced investors comfortable with a minimum investment of ₹10 lakhs and some volatility, but who prefer a more managed risk strategy than typical equity funds.
- Tax Efficiency: Structured for equity taxation benefits, long-term capital gains (LTCG) after 12 months are taxed at 12.5% (plus surcharge and cess), offering a tax advantage compared to debt-oriented funds.
