Gilt funds provides relative safety of capital with growth at par with inflation and is suitable for investment objectives with duration of 1-5 years or longer.
Gilt Funds are mandated to invest a minimum of 80% of their total assets in Government Securities.
Such a strategy results in a very high credit quality of the fund.
Gilt Funds tend to take a large exposure to long dated instruments making them highly volatile when interest rate changes.We do not recommend funds in this category since we believe that the high volatility of the category is not suited for individual investors.
Scripbox does not recommend investing in the dividend option of a fund because dividends are taxable at a higher rate than withdrawals.
