Risk Factors :

STANDARD RISK FACTORS

Mutual Funds and securities investments are subject to market risks and there is no assurance or guarantee that the objectives of the

Scheme will be achieved.

• As with any investment in securities, the NAV of the Units issued under the Scheme can go up or down depending on the factors

and forces affecting the capital markets.

• Past performance of the Mutual Funds managed by the Sponsors and its affiliates / AMC is not necessarily indicative of the future

performance of the Scheme.

• IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund is the name of the Scheme and does not in any manner indicate either the quality of the Schemes / its

future prospects or returns.

• The Sponsor or any of its associates are not responsible or liable for any loss resulting from the operation of the Scheme/s, and

the Sponsor's initial contribution towards setting up the Mutual Fund is limited to Rs. 30,000/-

• Investors in the scheme/s are not being offered any guaranteed or assured rate of returns.

SCHEME SPECIFIC RISK FACTORS :

• The Scheme proposes to invest in equity and equity related instruments. Equity instruments by nature are volatile and prone to

price fluctuations on a daily basis due to both macro and micro factors. Trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures

may restrict the liquidity of these investments. Different segments of financial markets have different settlement periods and such

periods may be extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances. The inability of the Scheme to make intended securities'

purchases due to settlement problems could cause the Scheme to miss certain investment opportunities.

• Price-Risk or Interest-Rate Risk: Fixed income securities such as bonds, debentures and money market instruments run price-risk

or interest-rate risk. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of existing fixed income securities fall and when interest rates drop,

such prices increase. The extent of fall or rise in the prices is a function of the existing coupon, days to maturity and the increase

or decrease in the level of interest rates.

• Reinvestment Risk: Investments in fixed income securities may carry reinvestment risk as interest rates prevailing on the interest

or maturity due dates may differ from the original coupon of the bond. Consequently, the proceeds may get invested at a lower

rate.

• Minimum Number of Investors in the Scheme: The Scheme seeks to have a minimum of 20 investors with no single investor

accounting for more than 25% of the corpus of the scheme. In the event, the scheme is unable to comply with the aforesaid

conditions, the investors money would be refunded, in full, immediately after the close of the NFO. The Scheme shall adhere to

requirements specified by SEBI from time to time.

Page 9: IDFC Tax Saver ELSS Fund - Kotak SecuritiesIDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 1 SPONSOR The sponsor of IDFC Mutual Fund is Infrastructure Development Finance Company Limited (IDFC) NAME OF

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 3

• Amounts invested in the Scheme shall be subject to a lock-in of three years from the date of allotment.

• Credit Risk : In simple terms this risk means that the issuer of a debenture / bond or a money market instrument may default oninterest payment or even in paying back the principal amount on maturity. Even where no default occurs, the price of a securitymay go down because the credit rating of an issuer goes down. It must, however, be noted that where the Scheme has investedin Government securities, there is no credit risk to that extent.

• Basis Risk (Interest - rate movement) : During the life of a floating rate security or a swap, the underlying benchmark index maybecome less active and may not capture the actual movement in interest rates or at times the benchmark may cease to exist. Thesetypes of events may result in loss of value in the portfolio.

• Spread Risk : In a floating rate security the coupon is expressed in terms of a spread or mark up over the benchmark rate. However,depending upon the market conditions, the spreads may move adversely or favourably leading to fluctuation in the NAV.

• Liquidity Risk : Due to the evolving nature of the floating rate market, there may be an increased risk of liquidity risk in the portfoliofrom time to time.

• Other Risk: In case of downward movement of interest rates, floating rate debt instruments will give a lower return than fixed ratedebt instruments.

Risk Factors for derivatives

1. Credit Risk: The credit risk is the risk that the counter party will default obligations and is generally negligible, as there is no exchangeof principal amounts in a derivative transaction. (especially in case of debt derivatives).

2. Market Risk: Derivatives carry the risk of adverse changes in the market price.

3. Illiquidity Risk: The risk that a derivative cannot be sold or purchased quickly enough at a fair price, due to lack of liquidity in themarket.

4. The risk is to the extent that returns are limited for the investor in case of extreme movement in call rates. (applicable to debtderivatives).

5. The fund pays the daily compounded rate. In practice however there can be a difference in the actual rate at which money is lentin the call market and the benchmark, which appears and is used. (applicable to debt derivatives).

6. Derivative products are leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate gains as well as disproportionate losses to theinvestor. Execution of such strategies depends upon the ability of the fund manager to identify such opportunities. Identificationand execution of the strategies to be pursued by the fund manager involve uncertainty and decision of fund manager may not alwaysbe profitable. No assurance can be given that the fund manager will be able to identify or execute such strategies.

7. The risks associated with the use of derivatives are different from or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly

in securities and other traditional investments.

Risk Associated with Securitised Debt

The Scheme may invest in domestic securitised debt such as Asset Backed Securities (ABS) or mortgage backed securities (MBS). Asset Backed

Securities (ABS) are securitised debts where the underlying assets are receivables arising from various loans including automobile loans,

personal loans, loans against consumer durables, etc. Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) are securitised debts where the underlying assets

are receivables arising from loans backed by mortgage of residential / commercial properties. ABS / MBS instruments reflect the undivided

interest in the underlying pool of assets and do not represent the obligation of the issuer of ABS / MBS or the originator of the underlying

receivables. The ABS / MBS holders have a limited recourse to the extent of credit enhancement provided. If the delinquencies and credit

losses in the underlying pool exceed the credit enhancement provided, ABS / MBS holders will suffer credit losses. ABS / MBS are also normally

exposed to a higher level of reinvestment risk as compared to the normal corporate or sovereign debt.

At present in Indian market, following types of loans are securitised:

Auto Loans (cars / commercial vehicles / two wheelers)

Residential Mortgages or Housing Loans

Consumer Durable Loans

Personal Loans

Auto Loans (cars / commercial vehicles / Two wheelers)

The underlying assets (cars etc.) are susceptible to depreciation in value whereas the loans are given at high loan to value ratios. Thus,

after a few months, the value of asset becomes lower than the loan outstanding. The borrowers, therefore, may sometimes tend to

default on loans and allow the vehicle to be repossessed. These loans are also subject to model risk. ie if a particular automobile model

does not become popular, loans given for financing that model have a much higher likelihood of turning bad. In such cases, loss on

sale of repossession vehicles is higher than usual.

Commercial vehicle loans are susceptible to the cyclicality in the economy. In a downturn in economy, freight rates drop leading to higher

defaults in commercial vehicle loans. Further, the second hand prices of these vehicles also decline in such economic environment.

Housing Loans

Housing loans in India have shown very low default rates historically. However, in recent years, loans have been given at high loan to

value ratios and to a much younger borrower classes. The loans have not yet gone through the full economic cycle and have not yet

seen a period of declining property prices. Thus the performance of these housing loans is yet to be tested and it need not conform

to the historical experience of low default rates.

Consumer Durable Loans

The underlying security for such loans is easily transferable without the bank's knowledge and hence repossession is difficult. The

underlying security for such loans is also susceptible to quick depreciation in value. This gives the borrowers a high incentive to default.

Personal Loans

These are unsecured loans. In case of a default, the bank has no security to fall back on.

The lender has no control over how the borrower has used the borrowed money.

Further, all the above categories of loans have the following common risks:

All the above loans are retail, relatively small value loans. There is a possibility that the borrower takes different loans using the same

income proof and thus the income is not sufficient to meet the debt service obligations of all these loans.

In India, there is no ready database available regarding past credit record of borrowers. Thus, loans may be given to borrowers with

poor credit record. In retail loans, the risks due to frauds are high.

Corporate Loans

These are loans given to single or multiple corporates. The receivables from a pool of loans to corporates are assigned to a trust that

issues Pass through certificates in turn. The credit risk in such PTCs is on the underlying pool of loans to corporates. The credit risk of

the underlying loans to the corporates would in turn depend of economic cycles.

Risk Factors associated with Stock lending:

The risks in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consist of the failure of another party, in this case the approved

intermediary, to comply with the terms of agreement entered into between the lender of securities i.e. the Scheme and the approved

intermediary. Such failure to comply can result in the possible loss of rights in the collateral put up by the borrower of the securities,

the inability of the approved intermediary to return the securities deposited by the lender and the possible loss of any corporate benefits

accruing to the lender from the securities deposited with the approved intermediary. The Mutual Fund may not be able to sell such lent

securities and this can lead to temporary illiquidity.

Special Consideration:

All the above factors not only affect the prices of securities but may also affect the time taken by the Fund for redemption of units,

which could be significant in the event of receipt of a very large number of redemption requests or very large value of redemption

requests. The liquidity of the assets may be affected by other factors such as general market conditions, political events, bank holidays

and civil strife. In view of this, the Trustee has the right in its sole discretion to limit redemption (including suspension of redemption)

under certain circumstances. Please refer to Section V titled "Units on Offer".

The liquidity of the Scheme's investments may be restricted by trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures. In the event

of an inordinately large number of redemption requests or of a restructuring of the Scheme's portfolio, the time taken by the Scheme

for redemption of Units may become significant. In view of this, the Trustee has the right in its sole discretion to limit redemption

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 5

(including suspension of redemption) under certain circumstances. Please refer to Section V titled "Units on Offer".

The Scheme may trade in derivatives as permitted under the Regulations subject to guidelines issued by SEBI and RBI from time to time.

Trading in Derivatives involves risks, which are explained in Section IV titled "Investment Objectives and Policies".

The Scheme may also invest in overseas financial assets as permitted under the applicable regulations. To the extent that the assets of

the Scheme will be invested in securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Indian Rupee equivalent of the net assets, distributions

and income may be adversely affected by changes in the value of certain foreign currencies relative to the Indian Rupee. The repatriation

of capital to India may also be hampered by changes in regulations concerning exchange controls or political circumstances as well as

the application to it of other restrictions on investment.

In case the Scheme undertakes stock lending under the Regulations, the Scheme may, at times be exposed to counter party risk.

Redemptions due to change in the fundamental attributes of the Scheme or due to any other reasons may entail tax consequences.

Nor will it include changes to the Scheme made inorder to comply with changes in regulation with which theScheme has been required to comply.

5. INVESTMENT STRATEGY AND RISK CONTROL

(i) Investment Strategy

Equity

The Scheme will invest in well-managed growth companiesthat are available at reasonable value. Companies would beidentified through a systematic process of forecasting earningsbased on a deep understanding of the industry growthpotential and interaction with company management to accessthe company's core competencies to achieve long-termsustainable profit growth.

The Scheme is expected to deliver superior relative returns forinvestors looking for a focused aggressive portfolio offundamentally good businesses. The guiding principles whilemanaging the portfolio are summarized below :

1) Sustainable company profits drives long term share valueFund management would focus primarily on businessfundamentals of the underlying company. The Equity Researchprocess will endeavour to acquire a robust understanding ofthe dynamics of the underlying business. This would form thebasis for forecasts on future profitability and sustainability ofcash profit growth. Stock prices of companies that can sustainperiods of high cash profit growth will outperform the marketsover the long term. Investors entering this scheme are thereforeexpected to have at least a one year time horizon.

2) Acquire stocks at reasonable value

Once good businesses are identified, stocks would be acquiredwhen they are available at a reasonable value. Overall marketcorrections and stock price falls due to temporary factors thatdon't affect long-term profitability are an excellent opportunityto buy stocks cheap.

3) Monitor market interest to ensure consistent performanceSystematically tracking over stock ownership and overresearched sectors would help to reduce the risk of a suddensell off. Stock prices react to event triggers that are constantlymonitored to ensure that portfolio performance is moreconsistent.

Debt

The domestic debt markets are maturing rapidly with liquidityemerging in various debt segments through the introductionof new instruments and investors.The actual percentage ofinvestment in various fixed income securities will be decidedafter considering the prevailing political conditions, theeconomic environment (including interest rates and inflation),the performance of the corporate sector and general liquidityand other considerations in the economy and markets. TheFund has put in place detailed Investment Discretion Guidelinesdefining the prudential and concentration limits for theportfolio limits. The investment management team is allowedfull discretion to make sale and purchase decisions within thelimits established. The Fund Manager/(s) record a justificationfor investments made, on the deal slip.

Investment Management Committee (IMC) in its periodicmeetings will track portfolio investment rationale, portfoliocomposition, performance etc. Any modifications to theInvestment Discretion Guidelines can be made by the IMCand will be ratified by the Board. The performance of the fundwill be monitored against its peer group in the industry andpresented at every Board meeting along with the portfolio of

Page 28: IDFC Tax Saver ELSS Fund - Kotak SecuritiesIDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 1 SPONSOR The sponsor of IDFC Mutual Fund is Infrastructure Development Finance Company Limited (IDFC) NAME OF

22 IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund

the Schemes. The Board of Directors discusses the performanceand portfolio composition of the scheme and queries will beresponded to by the Managing Director.

(ii) Procedure & Recording of Investment Decisions and riskcontrol

All investment decisions, relating to the Scheme, will beundertaken by the AMC in accordance with the Regulationsand the investment objectives specified in this Offer Document.All investment decisions taken by the AMC in relation to theScheme shall be recorded.

The Investment Management Committee (IMC) consisting ofsenior employees including the Managing Director of theAMC to over see the Investment function, will be responsiblefor laying down the broad Investment Policy and the Specificscheme mandates, in addition to monitoring schemeperformance and reviewing portfolio strategy. The risk controlparameters would be laid down for each scheme based on theobjectives of the scheme and prudent fund managementpractices will ensure that investor monies are invested in theappropriate risk / reward environment. The AMC would ensurethat investments are made in accordance with the regulatory/ internal guidelines, if any

The designated Fund manager of the scheme will beresponsible for taking the day-to-day investment decisionsand will inter alia be responsible for security selection, portfoliocreation and timing of investment decisions.

The Fund Manager would work with Research team to pickstocks. They will prepare a detailed report on any new companythat would be acquired for the Scheme. This report wouldcover the overall industry environment, discuss demand supplydynamics of the company's products and make profitabilityprojections. This report would also contain a discussion onthe valuation for the stock price. The Fund Manager woulddocument reasons for each transaction.

The Scheme performance would be benchmarked to the BSE200 Index. The fund reserves the right to change the saidbenchmark and/or adopt one / more other benchmarks tocompare the performance of the Scheme.

In case of investments in debt instruments, the AMC aims toidentify securities, which offer superior levels of yield at lowerlevels of risks. With the aim of controlling risks, requisitecredit evaluation of the securities proposed to be invested inwill be carried out by the investment team of the AMC. RatedDebt instruments in which the Scheme invests will be ofinvestment grade as rated by a credit rating agency. The AMCwill be guided by the ratings of Rating Agencies such asCRISIL, CARE, ICRA and Duff and Phelps Credit Rating IndiaLimited or any other rating agencies that may be registeredwith SEBI from time to time. In case a debt instrument is notrated, prior approval of the Board of Directors of Trustee andthe AMC will be obtained for such an investment.

In addition, the investment team of the AMC will study themacro economic conditions, including the political andeconomic environment and factors affecting liquidity andinterest rates. The AMC will use this analysis to attempt topredict the likely direction of interest rates and position theportfolio appropriately to take advantage of this.

The Scheme may use various derivatives and hedging productsfrom time to time, as would be available and permitted bySEBI, in an attempt to protect the value of the portfolio andenhance Unitholders' interests.

The Scheme may invest in other Schemes managed by theAMC or in the Schemes of any other Mutual Funds, providedit is in conformity to the investment objectives of the Schemeand in terms of the prevailing Regulations. As per theRegulations, no investment management fees will be chargedfor such investments and the aggregate inter-Schemeinvestment made by all Schemes of IDFC Mutual Fund or inthe Schemes under the management of other assetmanagement companies shall not exceed 5% of the net assetvalue of the IDFC Mutual Fund. The limit however does notapply to any Fund of Funds scheme.

For the present, the Scheme does not intend to enter intounderwriting obligations. However, if the Scheme does enterinto an underwriting agreement, it would do so aftercomplying with the Regulations.

6. DEBT MARKET & MONEY MARKET IN INDIA

The Indian debt markets are one of the largest such marketsin Asia. Government and public Sector enterprises arepredominant borrowers in the market. While interest rateswere regulated till a few years back, there has been a rapidderegulation and currently both the lending and depositrates are market determined.

The debt markets are developing fast, with the rapidintroduction of new instruments including derivatives. ForeignInstitutional Investors are also allowed to invest in Indian debtmarkets now. There has been a considerable increase in thetrading volumes in the market with the relatively high tradingvolumes. The trading volumes are largely concentrated in theGovernment of India Securities, which contribute a highproportion of the daily trades.

The money markets in India essentially consist of the callmoney market (i.e. market for overnight and term moneybetween banks and institutions), repo transactions (temporarysale with an agreement to buy back the securities at a futuredate at a specified price), commercial papers (CPs, short termunsecured promissory notes, generally issued by corporates),certificate of deposits (CDs, issued by banks) and Treasury Bills(issued by RBI). A predominantly institutional market, the keymoney market players are banks, financial institutions,insurance companies, mutual funds, primary dealers andcorporates.

Certain instruments currently available for investments andtheir current yields are given as under :

Instruments Current Yields* Liquidity*

Central / State 7.00% - 8.25% Very highGovernment Securities

PSU Bonds / Corporate 7.00% - 9.75% Medium - HighDebentures

Securitised debt 9.00% - 10.50% Low - Medium

Commercial Papers / 7.00% - 9.50% HighCertificates of Deposit

Call / Notice Money 6.00% - 7.75% Very high

Repo 6.00% - 7.75% Very high*As on April 30, 2008

The actual yields will, however, vary in line with general levelsof interest rates and debt / money market conditions prevailingfrom time to time.

Investments in Securitised Debt Instruments

Investment in such securities will not exceed 35% of the netassets of the Scheme or such other limit as may be decidedby the Trustee from time to time. Scheme may invest in domesticsecuritised debt such as asset backed securities (ABS) ormortgage backed securities (MBS). Asset Backed Securities(ABS) are securitized debts where the underlying assets arereceivables arising from automobile loans, personal loans,loans against consumer durables, etc. Mortgage backedsecurities (MBS) are securitized debts where the underlyingassets are receivables arising from loans backed by mortgageof residential / commercial properties. At present in Indianmarket, following types of loans are securitised 1) Auto Loans(cars / commercial vehicles / two wheelers) 2) ResidentialMortgages or Housing Loans 3) Consumer Durable Loans &4) Personal Loans. Investments in securitised debt instrumentsshall be made when in view of the Fund Manager, suchinvestments could provide reasonable returns commensuratewith risks associated with such investments and shall be madein accordance with the investment objective of the Scheme.Typically, investments in securitised debt instruments offerbetter yield to the investors. The various types of receivablesthat can be securitised can be receivables from auto loans,personal loans, loans to corporates etc. The investment wouldbe made in line with the objective of the fund.

7. CHANGE IN INVESTMENT PATTERN

Subject to the Regulations, the asset allocation pattern of theschemes may change from time to time, keeping in viewmarket conditions, market opportunities, applicableregulations and political and economic factors. It must beclearly understood that the percentages stated above are onlyindicative and not absolute. The proportions can varysubstantially depending upon the perception of theInvestment Manager, the intention being at all times to seekto protect the interests of the Unitholders. Such changes inthe investment pattern will be for a short term and for defensiveconsiderations only.

Illustrations

Index Futures

Index Futures have been introduced by BSE and NSE. Generallythree futures of 1 month 2 months and 3 months are presentlytraded on these exchanges. These futures expire on the lastworking Thursday of the respective months.

If the Nifty (Index) was 1875 at the beginning of a month andthe quotes for the three futures were as under:

Month Bid Price Offer Price

1 1880 1885

2 1900 1915

3 1910 1930

The Fund can buy an Index of month 1 on the last day of themonth prior to month 1 in the illustration above at an offerprice of 1885.

Numerical example of futures trade

The following is a hypothetical example of a typical likelyindex future trade and the associated costs.

Particulars Index ActualFuture purchase

of stocks

Index at the beginning 1875 1875of the month

Price of 1 Month Future 1885

A. Execution Cost: 10 NilCarry and otherIndex Future costs(1885-1875)

B. Brokerage Cost: 5.66 9.38Assumed at 0.30%for Index Futureand 0.50% for spotStocks(0.30% of 1885)(0.50% of 1875)

C. Gains on Surplus 13.87 NilFunds:(assumed 10%return on 90% ofthe money leftafter paying 10%margin)(10%*1875*90%*30 days/365)

Total Cost (A+B-C) 1.79 9.38

In this example, the Index Future trade has resulted inprofitability compared to actual purchase of the underlyingindex stocks. The profitability of Index Future as compared toan individual security will inter alia depend upon the carryingcost, the interest available on surplus funds and thetransaction cost.

There are futures based on stock indices as mentioned aboveas also futures based on individual stocks.

Illustrative list of strategies that can employ futures Strategiesthat employ index futures and their objectives :

(a) The fund has an existing equity portion invested in a basketof stocks. In case the fund manager has a view that the equitymarkets are headed downwards, the fund can then hedge theexposure to equity either fully or partially by initiating shortfutures positions in the index. A similar position in the longdirection can also be initiated by the fund to hedge its positionof cash and permissible equivalents. The extent to which thiscan be done is determined by existing guidelines.

(b) To the extent permissible by extant regulations the schemecan initiate a naked short position in an underlying indexfuture traded on a recognized stock exchange. In case thenifty near month future contract trading at say, 1850, and thefund manager has a view that it will depreciate going forward,the fund can initiate a sale transaction of nifty futures at 1850without holding a portfolio of equity stocks or any otherunderlying long equity position. Once the price falls to 1800after say, 20 days the fund can initiate a square-up transactionby buying the said futures and book a profit of 50.Correspondingly the fund can take a long position withoutan underlying cash / cash equivalent subject to the extantregulations.

Risk associated with this strategy :

1. Lack of opportunities available in the market

2. Inability of the derivatives to correlate perfectly with underlyingindices

3. Execution risk, whereby the rates seen on the screen may notbe the rates at which the ultimate execution takes place.

Strategies that employ Stock specific Futures and theirobjectives :

Individual stock futures are also available in the Indian EquityMarkets. Stock futures trade either at a premium or at discountto the spot prices, the level of premium generally reflects thecost of carry. Stock specific issues may have a bearing onfutures as speculators may find futures as a cost-effective wayof executing their view on the stock. However such executionsusually increase the premium/discount to the spot significantly,thereby giving rise to arbitrage opportunities for a fund.

(a) Selling spot and buying future : In case the fund holds thestock of a company at say Rs. 1000 while in the futures marketit trades at a discount to the spot price say at Rs. 980 thenthe fund may sell the stock and buy the futures. On the dateof expiry of the stock future, the fund may reverse thetransactions (i.e. Buying at Spot & Selling futures) and earna risk-free Rs. 20/- (2% absolute) on its holdings. As this canbe without any dilution of the view of the fund on theunderlying stock the fund can still benefit from any movementof the price in the northward direction, i.e. if on the date ofexpiry of the futures, if the stock trades at 1100 which wouldbe the price of the futures too, the fund will have a benefitof Rs. 100/- whereby the fund gets the 10% upside movementtogether with the 2% benefit on the arbitrage, and thusgetting a total return of 12%.

(b) Buying spot and selling future : Where the fund holds thestock of a company trading in the spot market at Rs 1000

Page 31: IDFC Tax Saver ELSS Fund - Kotak SecuritiesIDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 1 SPONSOR The sponsor of IDFC Mutual Fund is Infrastructure Development Finance Company Limited (IDFC) NAME OF

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 25

while it trades at Rs. 1020/- in the futures market then fundmay buy the stock at spot and sell in the futures marketthereby earning Rs. 20. In case of adequacy of cash with thefund, this strategy may be used to enhance returns of theScheme which was otherwise sitting on cash.

(c) Buying stock future: Where the scheme wants to initiate along positon in a stock whose spot price is at say, Rs.1000and futures is at 980, then the fund may just buy the futurescontract instead of the spot thereby benefiting from a lowercost option.

(d) In case the fund has a bearish view on a stock which is tradingin the spot market at Rs. 1000/- and the futures market at sayRs. 980/-. The fund can express such a view subject to extantSEBI regulations by initiating a short postion in the futurescontract. In case the view is right and the futures pricedepreciates to say 900/- the fund can square up the shortposition thereby earning a profit of Rs. 80/-.

Risk associated with this strategy :

• Lack of opportunities available in the market

• Inability of the derivatives to correlate perfectly with underlyingsecurity

• Execution risk, whereby the rates seen on the screen may notbe the rates at which the ultimate execution takes place.

Strategies that use Options and the objectives of suchstrategies :

Option contracts are of two types - Call and Put; the formerbeing the right, but not obligation, to purchase a prescribednumber of shares at a specified price before or on a specificexpiration date and the latter being the right, but notobligation, to sell a prescribed number of shares at a specifiedprice before or on a specific expiration date. The price atwhich the shares are contracted to be purchased or sold iscalled the strike price. Options that can be exercised on orbefore the expiration date are called American Options, whilethose that can be exercised only on the expiration date arecalled European Options. Option contracts are designated bythe type of option, name of the underlying, expiry month andthe strike price. Thus options can be used to earn less volatilereturns, earn the premium or use for hedging purposes etc.

Ilustrations of use of Options

Call Option (Buy): The fund buys a Call Option at the strikeprice of say Rs.1000 and pays a premium of say Rs. 50, thefund would earn profits if the market price of the stock at thetime of expiry of the option is more than 1050 being the totalof the strike price and the premium thereon. If on the dateof expiry of the option the stock price is below Rs. 1000, thefund will not exercise the option while it loses the premiumof Rs. 50.

Put Option (Buy): The fund buys a Put Option at Rs. 1000by paying a premium of say Rs. 50. If the stock price goesdown to Rs. 900, the fund would protect its downside andwould only have to bear the premium of Rs. 50 instead of aloss of Rs. 100 whereas if the stock price moves up to say Rs.1100 the fund may let the Option expire and forego thepremium thereby capturing Rs. 100 upside after bearing thepremium of Rs. 50.

Writing a Call Option: The fund writes a call option at Rs. 1050and earn a premium of, say, Rs. 10. If the price is higher than Rs.1050, say Rs.1100/- at expiry then the option is exercised, theFund earns the premium of Rs. 10/- but loses the differencebetween the market price and the exercise price i.e. Rs. 50/-. In casethe stock price is less than Rs.1050, the fund gets to keep thepremium of Rs.10/-.

Writing a Put Option: The fund writes a put option with the strikeprice of Rs. 1000 and earn a premium of say Rs. 20. In case thestock trades at Rs. 950 the put option will be exercised, the fundwill earn the premium of Rs. 20/- but losses the difference betweenthe exercise price and the market price which is Rs. 50/-. Where thestock trades at above the exercise price, the option-holder will notexercise the option and let it expire. In this case the fund will earnthe premium income of Rs. 20.

The above four option positions can be initiated in both indexbased options as well as stock specific options.

Risk associated with this strategy :

• Lack of opportunities available in the market

• Inability of the derivatives to correlate perfectly with underlyingsecurity

• Execution risk, whereby the rates seen on the screen may notbe the rates at which the ultimate execution takes place.

The AMC retains the right to enter into such derivativetransactions as may be permitted by the applicable regulationsfrom time to time.

Debt Derivatives

In terms of Circular No. MFD.BC.191/07.01.279/1999-2000and MPD.BC.187/07.01.279/1999-2000 dated November 1,1999 and July 7, 1999 respectively issued by Reserve Bank ofIndia permitting participation by Mutual Funds in InterestRate Swaps and Forward Rate Agreements, the Fund will usederivative instruments for the purpose of hedging and portfoliobalancing. The AMC would undertake the same for similarpurposes only.

Interest Rate Swaps (IRS)

An IRS is an agreement between two parties to exchangestated interest obligations for an agreed period in respect ofa notional principal amount. The most common form is afixed to floating rate swap where one party receives a fixed(pre-determined) rate of interest while the other receives afloating (variable) rate of interest.

Forward Rate Agreement (FRA)

A FRA is basically a forward starting IRS. It is an agreementbetween two parties to pay or receive the difference betweenan agreed fixed rate (the FRA rate) and the interest rate(reference rate) prevailing on a stipulated future date, basedon a notional principal amount for an agreed period. The onlycash flow is the difference between the FRA rate and thereference rate. As is the case with IRS, the notional amountsare not exchanged in FRAs.

EXAMPLE OF A DERIVATIVES TRANSACTION

Basic Structure of A Swap

Bank A has a 6 month Rs. 10 crore liability, currently beingdeployed in call. Bank B has a Rs 10 crores 6 month asset,being funded through call. Both banks are running an interestrate risk.

To hedge this interest rate risk, they can enter into a 6 monthMIBOR (Mumbai Inter Bank Offered Rate) swap. Through thisswap, A will receive a fixed preagreed rate (say 7%) and pay"call" on the NSE MIBOR ("the benchmark rate"). Bank A'spaying at "call" on the benchmark rate will neutralise theinterest rate risk of lending in call. B will pay 7% and receiveinterest at the benchmark rate. Bank A's receiving of "call" onthe benchmark rate will neutralise his interest rate risk arisingfrom his call borrowing.

The mechanism is as follows :

• Assume the swap is for Rs.10 crores from March 1, 2002 toSeptember 1, 2002. A is a fixed rate receiver at 7% and B isa floating rate receiver at the overnight compounded rate.

• On March 1, 2002 A and B will exchange only an agreementof having entered this swap. This documentation would beas per International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA).

• On a daily basis, the benchmark rate fixed by NSE will betracked by them.

On September 1, 2002 they will calculate the following:

• A is entitled to receive interest on Rs.10 crores at 7% for 184days i.e. Rs. 35.28 lakhs, (this amount is known at the timethe swap was concluded) and will pay the compoundedbenchmark rate.

• B is entitled to receive daily compounded call rate for 184 days& pay 7% fixed.

• On September 1, 2002, if the total interest on the dailyovernight compounded benchmark rate is higher than Rs.35.28 lakhs, A will pay B the difference. If the dailycompounded benchmark rate is lower, then B will pay A thedifference.

• Effectively Bank A earns interest at the rate of 7% p.a. for sixmonths without lending money for 6 months fixed, whileBank B pays interest @ 7% p.a. for 6 months on Rs. 10 crores,without borrowing for 6 months fixed.

The AMC retains the right to enter into such derivativetransactions as may be permitted by the applicable regulationsfrom time to time.

8) PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

Portfolio turnover in the scheme will be a function of marketopportunities. It is difficult to estimate with any reasonablemeasure of accuracy, the likely turnover in the portfolio. TheAMC will endeavor to optimize portfolio turnover to optimizerisk adjusted return keeping in mind the cost associated withit. A high portfolio turnover rate is not necessarily a drag onportfolio performance and may be representative of arbitrageopportunities that exist for scrips / securities held in the portfoliorather than an indication of change in AMC's view on a scripetc.

9. INVESTMENT OF SUBSCRIPTION MONEY

11. INVESTMENT IN OVERSEAS FINANCIAL ASSETS

Mutual funds have been permitted to invest in ADRs / GDRsissued by Indian Companies within certain limits, from 1999.Mutual funds have also been permitted to invest in foreigndebt securities, since 2002, in countries with full convertiblecurrencies, short term as well as long term debt instrumentswith highest rating (foreign currency credit rating) by accredited/ registered credit rating agencies including A-1/AAA byStandard and Poor, P-1/AAA by Moody's, and F1/AAA by Fitch.Mutual funds are also permitted to invest in governmentsecurities where the countries are AAA rated. As there isupper limit of US$500 million for the entire mutual fundsindustry for making investment in ADRs / GDRs and foreignsecurities, each mutual fund is permitted to invest up to 4%of its net assets subject to a maximum of US $50 Millions.

Further, SEBI vide circular SEBI / MFD / CIR No. 02 /6855/ 03April 4, 2003 has permitted investments in equity of listedoverseas companies which have a shareholding of at least10% in an Indian company listed on a recognised stockexchange in India (as on January 31 of the year of investment).This circular also revised the overall cap for the entire mutualfunds industry to invest in ADRs / GDRs issued by Indiancompanies and foreign equity and debt securities, to US $1billion and individual limits for mutual funds to 10% of netsassets as on January 31, 2003 retaining the earlier cap onindividual limits.

SEBI vide its circular SEBI / IMD / CIR No.7 / 5573/04 datedMarch 19, 2004, permitted each mutual fund to invest inforeign securities up to 10% of its net assets as on January31 of each relevant year.

SEBI vide its circular no. SEBI/IMD/CIR No.7/73202/06 datedAugust 2, 2006 has increased the aggregate ceiling for themutual fund industry to invest in ADRs / GDRs issued byIndian companies, equity of overseas companies listed onrecognized stock exchanges overseas and rated debt securitiesto US $ 2 billions from the earlier limit of US $ 1 million.

The MF shall appoint a dedicated fund manager for makinginvestments in ADRs / GDRs / Foreign Securities in line with theSEBI regulations. As and when the Scheme actually invests inthese securities, the name of the dedicated fund managershall be communicated. Necessary disclosure shall also beprovided in the financial statements released by the fund.

It is the Investment Manager's belief that overseas securitiesoffer new investment and portfolio diversificationopportunities into multi-market and multi-currency products.However, such investments also entail additional risks. Suchinvestment opportunities may be pursued by the InvestmentManager provided they are considered appropriate in terms

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 27

of the overall the investment objectives of the Scheme and inaccordance with any guidelines issued by SEBI from time totime. Since the Scheme would also invest in overseas securities,there may not be readily available and widely acceptedbenchmarks to measure performance of the Scheme. Offshoreinvestments shall be made subject to any necessary approvalsor conditions stipulated by SEBI and the expenses charged tothe Scheme shall not exceed the total limits on expenses asprescribed under the Regulations and guidelines thereunder.The details of calculation for charging such expenses shall bereported to the Boards of AMC and trustees and shall also bedisclosed in the Annual Report of the Scheme. The Fund may,where necessary, appoint other intermediaries of repute asadvisors, sub-managers, or sub-custodians for managing andadministering such investments. The appointment of suchintermediaries shall be in accordance with the applicablerequirements, if any, of SEBI.

To the extent that the assets of the Scheme will be investedin securities denominated in foreign currencies, the IndianRupee equivalent of the net assets may be adversely affectedby changes in the value of certain foreign currencies relativeto the Indian rupee. The repatriation of capital to India mayalso be hampered by changes in regulations concerningexchange controls or political circumstances or any otherrestriction applicable to it. To manage risk associated withforeign currency and interest rate exposure and for efficientportfolio management, the fund may use derivatives such ascross currency swaps etc. The use of derivatives would be inaccordance with the prevailing regulations.

However, the AMC with a view to protecting the interests ofinvestors may increase exposure in foreign securities asdeemed fit from time to time.

Debt Markets abroad:

Overseas debt markets are deep and vibrant and much moresophisticated than the Indian debt markets. Most individualbonds are bought and sold in the over-the-counter (OTC)market, although some corporate bonds are also listed on theNew York Stock Exchange. The OTC market compriseshundreds of securities firms and banks that trade bonds byphone or electronically. Some are dealers that keep an inventoryof bonds and buy and sell these bonds for their own account;others act as agent and buy from or sell to other dealers inresponse to specific requests on behalf of customers. Quotesare available for an entire gamut of securities of varyingmaturities. Among the types of bonds one can choose fromare: Government securities, municipal bonds, corporate bonds,mortgage and asset-backed securities, federal agency securitiesand foreign government bonds.

Bond choices range from the highest credit quality Treasurysecurities, which are backed by the full faith and credit of thegovernment, to bonds that are below investment-grade andconsidered speculative. Since a bond may not be redeemed,or reach maturity, for years - even decades, credit qualitybecomes an important consideration when you are evaluatinga fixed / floating-income investment.

In the United States, major rating agencies include Moody'sInvestors Service, Standard & Poor's Corporation and Fitch.Each of the agencies assigns its ratings based on in-depthanalysis of the issuer's financial condition and management,economic and debt characteristics and the specific revenuesources securing the bond. The highest ratings are AAA (S&P

and Fitch) and AAA (Moody's). Bonds rated in the BBB categoryor higher are considered investment grade; securities withratings in the BB category and below are considered "highyield" or below investment grade. While experience has shownthat a diversified portfolio of high-yield bonds will, over thelong run, have only a modest risk of default, it is extremelyimportant to understand that, for any single bond, the highinterest rate that generally accompanies a lower rating is asignal or warning of higher risk.

The Link Between Interest Rates and Maturity

Changes in interest rates do not affect all bonds equally. Thelonger it takes for a bond to mature, the greater the risk thatprices will fluctuate along the way and that the fluctuationswill be greater and the more the investors will expect to becompensated for taking the extra risk. There is a direct linkbetween maturity and yield. It can best be seen by drawinga line between the yields available on like securities of differentmaturities, from shortest to longest. Such a line is called ayield curve. A yield curve could be drawn for any bond marketbut it is most commonly drawn for the Treasury market, whichoffers securities of every maturity and where all issues bear thesame top credit quality. By watching the yield curve, as reportedin the daily financial press, you can gain a sense of where themarket perceives interest rates to be headed one of theimportant factors that could affect your bonds' prices. Anormal yield curve would show a fairly steep rise in yieldsbetween short and intermediate term issues and a lesspronounced rise between intermediate and long term issues.That is as it should be, since the longer the investor 's moneyis at risk, the more the investor should expect to earn.

outstanding on the valuation date. The Fund shall value itsinvestments according to the valuation norms, as specified inSchedule VIII of the Regulations, or such norms as may beprescribed by SEBI from time to time. The broad valuationnorms are detailed below.

These norms are indicated based on the current Regulationsand the guidelines / instructions issued by SEBI i.e. MFD/CIR/8/92/2000 dated September 18, 2000. In terms of SEBI letterno. MFD/CIR/8(A)/104/2000 dated October 3, 2000, the saidguidelines on valuation of non-traded and thinly traded debtsecurities came into force from December 1, 2000 and thesame was modified vide letter no. MFD/CIR/14/088/2001 datedMarch 28, 2001 & MFD/CIR/No.14/.442/2002 dated February20, 2002.

1) Traded Securities

(i) Traded securities (other than Government Securities) arevalued at the last quoted closing price on the NationalStock Exchange of India (NSE). If a particular security is notlisted on the NSE, it is valued at the last quoted closingprice on the stock exchange where it is principally traded("another stock exchange").

(ii) When on a particular Valuation Day, a security listed onthe NSE has not been traded on the NSE, the value atwhich it has been traded on another stock exchange isused.

When a equity security is not traded on any stock exchangeon a particular valuation day, the value at which it wastraded on the selected stock exchange or any other stockexchange, as the case may be, on the earliest previousday may be used provided such date is not more than 30days prior to the Valuation Day.

(iii) All Government bonds are to be valued at the pricesprovided by CRISIL.COM on a daily basis. In the event ofnon availability of the CRISIL.COM's prices for any reasonwhatsoever prices released by FIMMDA will be used.When prices from both the aforesaid sources are notavailable, Reuters or Bloomberg price quotes (bid pricequotes) will be used, failing which the average of theindicative bid price quotes obtained from two Governmentsecurities brokers will be used.

Traded Treasury Bills (T-Bills) are to be valued at last tradedyield to maturity (YTM) for up to next 15 days and are tobe amortized at YTM on a straight-line basis from thatlevel.

Valuation - ADRs / GDRs / other foreign securities(equities)

Trades in ADRs / GDRs /other foreign securities shall beaccounted for on the day following the trade on the relevantstock exchanges where such ADRs / GDRs / other foreignsecurities are listed viz. New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ,London Stock Exchange (LSE), Luxembourg Stock Exchangeetc. The valuation of such investments shall be done at the lasttraded price of the previous day on the relevant exchangewhere the ADR / GDR / other foreign securities is listed andtraded. For instance, in case of GDR listed on LuxembourgStock Exchange, the last traded price on Luxembourg StockExchange shall be used for the purpose of valuation. In caseof GDRs listed on more than one foreign stock exchange, thescheme shall use the last traded price on LSE, in the absence

of which last traded price on Luxembourg Stock Exchangeshall be used. If the GDR was not traded on LuxembourgStock Exchange too, the last traded price on such other StockExchange as the AMC may deem appropriate shall be used forportfolio valuation, the intention being to provide fairvaluation to the investors of the Scheme. In case of an ADRlisted on more than one stock exchange the last traded priceon NYSE shall be used for valuation. If the ADR is not tradedon NYSE, the last traded price on NASDAQ shall be used forvaluation and if the ADR is not traded on NASDAQ too, thelast traded price on such other stock exchange as the AMCmay deem appropriate shall be used for portfolio valuation,the intention being to provide fair valuation to the investorsof the Scheme.

In the absence of prices on any exchange on the concernedvaluation date, the price prevailing at the close of business onthe previous date of trade in such ADR / GDR / other foreignsecurities shall be used for valuation provided that suchprevious date is not more than 30 days prior to the date ofvaluation.

However, the AMC reserves the right to choose the price forvaluation of ADRs / GDRs / other foreign securities which maybe different from the procedure given above depending uponthe prevailing circumstances, the intention being to providefair valuation to the investors of the Scheme.

Since the traded price would be in foreign currency theconversion rate to INR would also be as of the previous day.

In case such quotes are not available on any day, the foreignexchange rates as available for the immediately preceding daymay be used. The AMC reserves the right to chooseappropriate rates for conversion of the last traded price forthe purpose of valuation, depending upon the prevailingcircumstances, the intention being to provide fair valuationto the investors of the Scheme.

Valuation policy for foreign debt instruments :

Where Debt Instruments are listed and regularly traded onstock exchanges the last traded price at the close of businesswill be considered for valuation. In view of the time zonedifference it is possible that the price taken for valuationwould be the previous day's closing price. Since the tradedprice would be in foreign currency the conversion rate to INRwould also be as of the previous day.

Where the securities are either not listed on stock exchangesor listed but not traded, but whose prices are transmitted vianews agency such as Reuters / Bloomberg / Bridge, the pricesat a predetermined time from a predetermined source (page)would be considered for the valuation. It will be theresponsibility of the fund to ensure that the source is reliableand authentic for valuation purpose and reflects the fairprices.

For Debt Instruments where regular market-making facility isavailable, the bid price will be taken for valuation. The fundwill procure tradable quotes from the market maker i.e. quotesat which actual buying and selling can happen. Thecommunication for two-way quotes would be documented.

2) Thinly Traded Securities / Non-Traded Securities / UnlistedEquity Securities

i) Thinly Traded Equity / Equity related securities

When trading in an equity / equity related security (such asconvertible debentures, equity warrants, etc.) in a month isless than Rs. 5 lakhs and the total volume is less than 50,000shares, it shall be considered as a thinly traded security andvalued accordingly.

Where a stock exchange identifies the "thinly traded" securitiesby applying the above parameters for the preceding calendarmonth and publishes / provides the required information alongwith the daily quotations, the same can be used by the Fund.

If the share is not listed on the stock exchanges which providesuch information, then it will be obligatory on the part of theFund to make its own analysis in line with the above criteriato check whether such securities are thinly traded which wouldthen be valued accordingly.

In case trading in an equity security is suspended upto 30days, then the last traded price would be considered forvaluation of that security. If an equity security is suspended formore than 30 days, then the AMC/Trustees will decide thevaluation norms to be followed and such norms would bedocumented and recorded.

(ii) Non-Traded Equity Securities

When a security (other than debt and Government securities)is not traded on any stock exchange for a period of 30 daysprior to the Valuation Day, the scrip is treated as non-tradedscrip.

Non-traded / thinly traded equity securities shall be valued "ingood faith" by the asset management company on the basisof the valuation principles laid down below:

a) Based on the latest available Balance Sheet, net worth shallbe calculated as follows:

(b) Net Worth per share = [share capital+ reserves (excludingrevaluation reserves) - Miscellaneous expenditure and DebitBalance in P&L A/c] Divided by No. of Paid-up Shares.

(c) Average capitalisation rate (P/E ratio) for the industry basedupon either BSE or NSE data (which should be followedconsistently and changes, if any, noted with proper justificationthereof) shall be taken and discounted by 75% i.e. only 25%of the Industry average P/E shall be taken as capitalisation rate(P/E ratio). Earnings per share of the latest audited annualaccounts will be considered for this purpose.

(d) The value as per the net worth value per share and the capitalearning value calculated as above shall be averaged and furtherdiscounted by 10% for illiquidity so as to arrive at the fairvalue per share.

(e) In case the EPS is negative, EPS value for that year shall betaken as zero for arriving at capitalised earning.

(f) In case where the latest balance sheet of the company is notavailable within nine months from the close of the year,unless the accounting year is changed, the shares of suchcompanies shall be valued at zero.

(g) In case an individual security accounts for more than 5% ofthe total assets of the scheme, an independent valuer shallbe appointed for the valuation of the said security.

(iii) Unlisted Equity Shares

Unlisted equity shares of a company shall be valued "in goodfaith" on the basis of the valuation principles laid downbelow :

(a) Based on the latest available audited balance sheet, networth shall be calculated as lower of (i) and (ii) below :

i. Net worth per share = [share capital plus free reserves(excluding revaluation reserves) minus Miscellaneousexpenditure not written off or deferred revenueexpenditure, intangible assets and accumulatedlosses] divided by Number of Paid-up Shares.

ii. After taking into account the outstanding warrantsand options, Net worth per share shall again becalculated and shall be = [share capital plusconsideration on exercise of Option / Warrantsreceived / receivable by the Company plus free reserves(excluding revaluation reserves) minus Miscellaneousexpenditure not written off or deferred revenueexpenditure, intangible assets and accumulatedlosses] divided by {Number of Paid-up Shares plusNumber of Shares that would be obtained onconversion/exercise of Outstanding Warrants andOptions}

The lower of (i) and (ii) above shall be used forcalculation of net worth per share and for furthercalculation in (c) below.

(b) Average capitalisation rate (P/E ratio) for the industrybased upon either BSE or NSE data (which should befollowed consistently and changes, if any, noted withproper justification thereof) shall be taken and discountedby 75% i.e. only 25% of the Industry average P/E shall betaken as capitalisation rate (P/E ratio). Earnings per shareof the latest audited annual accounts will be consideredfor this purpose.

(c) The value as per the net worth value per share and thecapital earning value calculated as above shall be averagedand further discounted by 15% for illiquidity so as toarrive at the fair value per share.

The above methodology for valuation shall be subject to thefollowing conditions :

i. All calculations as aforesaid shall be based on auditedaccounts.

ii. In case where the latest balance sheet of the company is notavailable within nine months from the close of the year,unless the accounting year is changed, the shares of suchcompanies shall be valued at zero.

iii. If the net worth of the company is negative, the share wouldbe marked down to zero.

iv. In case the EPS is negative, EPS value for that year shall betaken as zero for arriving at capitalised earning.

v. In case an individual security accounts for more than 5% ofthe total assets of the scheme, an independent valuer shallbe appointed for the valuation of the said security. To determineif a security accounts for more than 5% of the total assets ofthe scheme, it should be valued in accordance with theprocedure as mentioned above on the date of valuation.

Page 37: IDFC Tax Saver ELSS Fund - Kotak SecuritiesIDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 1 SPONSOR The sponsor of IDFC Mutual Fund is Infrastructure Development Finance Company Limited (IDFC) NAME OF

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 31

At the discretion of the AMC and with the approval of thetrustees, an unlisted equity share may be valued at a pricelower than the value derived using the aforesaid methodology.

3) While investments in call money, bills purchased underrediscounting plan and short term deposits with banks shallbe valued at cost plus accrual, other money market instrumentsshall be valued at the yield at which they are currently traded.For this purpose, non-traded instruments, that is instrumentsnot traded for a period of 7 days, will be valued at cost plusinterest accrued till the beginning of the Valuation Day plusthe difference between the redemption value and the costspread uniformly over the remaining maturity period of theinstruments.

4) Non-traded T-Bills with residual maturity up to 182 days (nottraded for more than 15 days or one which would qualify asa thinly traded security), will be valued on straight-lineamortization of last traded YTM or purchased YTM. Non-traded T-Bills with residual maturity greater than 182 days(not traded for more than 15 days or one which would qualifyas a thinly traded security), will be valued at the average ofthe indicative bid YTM obtained from two Government securitybrokers failing which at prices provided by FIMMDA or REUTERSor Bloomberg price quotes.

5) The non-convertible and convertible components ofconvertible debentures and bonds shall be valued separately.The non-convertible component would be valued on thesame basis as would be applicable to a debt instrument.

6) Where an instrument has been bought on a 'Repo' basis, theinstrument would be valued at the resale price after deductionof applicable interest upto the date of resale. Where aninstrument has been sold on a 'Repo' basis, adjustmentwould be made for the difference between the repurchaseprice (after deduction of applicable interest up to date ofrepurchase) and the value of the instrument. If the repurchaseprice exceeds the value of the instrument, the depreciationwould be provided for, and if the repurchase price is lowerthan the value of the instrument, credit would be taken forthe appreciation.

7) In respect of warrants to subscribe attached to instruments,the warrants would be valued at the value of the share whichwould be obtained on exercise of the warrant as reduced bythe amount which would be payable on exercise of thewarrant. A discount similar to the discount to be determinedin respect of convertible debentures shall be deducted toaccount for the period, which must elapse before the warrantcan be exercised.

8) Until they are traded, the value of "rights" shares shall becalculated as :

Vr = n ÷ m x (Pex - Pof)

Where Vr = Value of rights

n = no. of rights offered

m = no. of original shares held

Pex = Ex-rights price

Pof = Rights Offer Price

Where the rights are not treated pari passu with the existingshares, suitable adjustments shall be made to the value of therights. Where it is decided not to subscribe for the rights butto renounce them and renunciations are being traded, therights can be valued at the renunciation value.

Valuation of Non-Traded / Thinly Traded Securities :

(II)(A) Non-traded / Thinly Traded Debt Securities of Upto 182Days to Maturity :

As the money market securities are valued on the basis ofamortization (cost plus accrued interest till the beginning of theday plus the difference between the redemption value and thecost spread uniformly over the remaining maturity period of theinstruments) a similar process should be adopted for non-tradeddebt securities with residual maturity of upto 182 days, in theabsence of any other standard benchmarks in the market. Debtsecurities purchased with residual maturity of upto 182 days areto be valued at cost (including accrued interest till the beginningof the day) plus the difference between the redemption value(inclusive of interest) and cost spread uniformly over the remainingmaturity period of the instrument. In case of a debt security withmaturity greater than 182 days at the time of purchase, the lastvaluation price plus accrued interest should be used instead ofpurchase cost. All other non-traded Non Government debtinstruments shall be valued using the method suggested below.

(II)(B) Non-traded / Thinly Traded Debt Securities of Over 182Days to Maturity :

For the purpose of valuation, all Non-Traded Debt Securities wouldbe classified into "Investment grade" and "Non-Investment grade"securities based on their credit ratings. The non-investment gradesecurities would further be classified as "Performing" and"Non-Performing" assets.

• All Non Government investment grade debt securities,classified as not traded, shall be valued on yield to maturitybasis as described below.

• All Non Government non-investment grade performing debtsecurities would be valued at a discount of 25% to the facevalue.

• All Non Government non-investment grade non-performingdebt securities would be valued based on the provisioningnorms.

The approach in valuation of non-traded debt securities isbased on the concept of using spreads over the benchmarkrate to arrive at the yields for pricing the non-traded security.

The Yields for pricing the non-traded debt security would bearrived at using the process as described:

Step A

A Risk Free Benchmark Yield is built using the government securities(GOI Sec) as the base. GOI Secs are used as the benchmarks as theyare traded regularly, free of credit risk, and traded across differentmaturity spectra every week.

Step B

A Matrix of spreads (based on the credit risk) is built for markingup the benchmark yields. The matrix is built based on tradedcorporate paper on the wholesale debt segment of an appropriatestock exchange and the primary market issuances. The matrix isrestricted only to investment grade corporate paper.

Step C

The yields as calculated above are Marked-up/Marked-down forilliquidity risk.

Step D

a. Construction of Risk-Free Benchmark

Using Government of India dated securities, the Benchmarkshall be constructed as below :

METHODOLOGY

• Government of India Dated securities will be grouped into thefollowing duration buckets viz., 0.5-1 year, 1-2 years, 2-3years, 3-4 years, 4-5 years, 5-6 years and greater than 6 yearsand the volume weighted yield would be computed for eachbucket. Accordingly, there will be a benchmark YTM for eachduration bucket. These duration buckets may be changed toreflect the market value more closely by any agency suggestedby AMFI giving benchmark yield / matrix of spreads overbenchmark yield.

The benchmark as calculated above will be set weekly, and inthe event of any change in the Reserve Bank of India (RBI)policies affecting interest rates during the week, the benchmarkwill be reset to reflect any change in the market conditions.

Note : The concept of duration over tenor has been chosenin order to capture the reinvestment risk. It is intended togradually move towards a methodology that incorporates thecontinuous curve approach for valuation of such securities.However, in view of the current lack of liquidity in the corporatebond markets, a continuous curve approach to valuationwould be necessarily based on limited data points, and thiswould result in out of line valuations. As an interimmethodology therefore it is proposed that the Duration Bucketapproach be adopted and continuously tracked in order tofine tune the duration buckets on a periodic basis. Over thenext few years it is expected that with the deepening of thesecondary market trading, it would be possible to make agradual move from the Duration Bucket approach towards acontinuous curve approach.

The Yields so arrived at are used to price the portfolio.

b. Building a Matrix of Spreads for Marking-up theBenchmark Yield

Mark-up for credit risk over the risk free benchmark YTM ascalculated in step a, will be determined using the trades ofcorporate debentures / bonds of different ratings. All tradeson appropriate stock exchanges during the fortnight prior tothe benchmark date will be used in building the corporateYTM and spread matrices. Initially these matrices will be builtonly for corporate securities of investment grade. The matricesare dynamic and the spreads will be computed every week.The matrix will be built for all duration buckets for which thebenchmark GOI matrix is built to effectively link the corporatematrix with the GOI securities matrix. Accordingly :

• All traded paper (with minimum traded value of Rs. 1 crore)will be classified by their ratings and grouped into 7 durationbuckets; for rated securities, the most conservative publiclyavailable rating will be used.

• For each rating category, average volume weighted yield willbe obtained both from trades on the appropriate stockexchange and from the primary market issuances.

• Where there are no secondary trades on the appropriate stockexchange in a particular rating category and no primary marketissuances during the fortnight under consideration, thentrades on the appropriate stock exchange during the 30 day

period prior to the benchmark date will be considered forcomputing the average YTM for such rating category.

• If the matrix cannot be populated using any or all of the abovesteps, then credit spreads from trades on appropriate stockexchange of the relevant rating category over the AAA tradeswill be used to populate the matrix.

• In each rating category, all outliers will be removed forsmoothening the YTM matrix.

• Spreads will be obtained by deducting the YTM in each durationcategory from the respective YTM of the GOI securities.

• In the event of lack of trades in the secondary market and theprimary market the gaps in the matrix would be filled byextrapolation. If the spreads cannot be extrapolated for thereason of practicality, the gaps in the matrix will be filled bycarrying the spreads from the last matrix.

c. Mark-up/ Mark-down Yield

The Yields calculated would be marked-up /marked - down toaccount for the illiquidity risk, promoter background, financecompany risk and the issuer class risk. As the level of illiquidityrisk would be higher for non-rated securities, the markingprocess for rated and non-rated securities, would bedifferentiated as follows :

(i) Adjustments for Securities rated by external ratingagencies :

The Yields so derived out of the above methodology could beadjusted to account for risk mentioned above.

A discretionary discount / premium of upto +100/-50 basispoints for securities having a duration of upto 2 years andupto +75/- 25 basis points for securities having durationhigher than 2 years will be permitted to be provided for theabove mentioned types of risks. The rationale for the abovediscount structure is to take cognizance of the differentialinterest rate risk of the securities. This structure will be reviewedperiodically.

(ii) Adjustments for Internally Rated Securities :

To value an un-rated security, the fund manager has to assignan internal credit rating, which will be used for valuation.Since un-rated instruments tend to be more illiquid thanrated securities, the yields would be marked-up by adding+50 basis points for securities having a duration of upto twoyears and +25 basis points for securities having duration ofhigher than two years to account for the illiquidity risk.

Category Discretionarydiscount overbenchmark yieldin basis points

(iii) The benchmark yield / matrix of spreads over benchmark yieldobtained from any agency suggested by AMFI (currently CRISIL)as a provider of benchmark yield / matrix of spreads overbenchmark yield to mutual funds, must be applied forvaluation of securities on the day on which the bench markyield / matrix of spreads over benchmark yield is released bythe aforesaid agency.

Valuation of securities with Put / Call Options:

The option embedded securities would be valued as follows:

Securities with Call option:

The securities with Call option shall be valued at the lower ofthe value as obtained by valuing the security to final maturityand valuing the security to call option.

In case there are multiple Call options, the lowest valueobtained by valuing to the various call dates and valuing tothe maturity date is to be taken as the value of the instrument.

Securities with Put option:

The securities with Put option shall be valued at the higherof the value as obtained by valuing the security to final maturityand valuing the security to Put option.

In case there are multiple put options, the highest valueobtained by valuing to the various put dates and valuing tothe maturity date is to be taken as the value of the instruments.

Securities with both Put and Call option on the same day:

The securities with both Put and Call option on the same daywould be deemed to mature on the Put / Call day and wouldbe valued accordingly.

3) Asset backed securities

• Asset backed securities with a residual maturity over 182 daysand where the cash flows are variable are valued on the samebasis as that for non-traded securities with residual maturityover 182 days.

• Asset backed securities with a residual maturity upto 182 daysand where cashflows are variable are valued on the basis ofamortisation, the last valued yield being the base foramortisation.

4) Government Securities

Government securities are valued at prices obtained fromCRISIL in accordance with the guidelines for valuation ofsecurities for mutual funds issued by SEBI.

5) Money Market Instruments (including CollateralisedBorrowing & Lending Obligation)

While investments in Call money, Bills purchased underrediscounting scheme, Collateralised Borrowing & LendingObligation and short term deposits with banks shall be valuedat cost plus accrual; other money market instruments shall bevalued at the yield at which they are currently traded. Non-traded money market instruments are valued at cost / lastvaluation price (including accrued interest till the beginningof the day) plus the difference between the redemption value(inclusive of interest) and cost / last valuation price, spreaduniformly over the remaining maturity period of the instrument.

6) Repos

Instruments bought on 'repo' basis are valued at the resaleprice after deduction of applicable interest upto date of resale.

7) Valuation of Derivative Products

i) The traded derivatives shall be valued at market price inconformity with the stipulations of sub clauses (i) to (v) ofclause 1 of the Eighth Schedule to the Securities and ExchangeBoard of India (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 as amendedby SEBI Circular No.MFD/CIR/8/92/2000 and MFD/CIR/14/088/2001 dated September 18, 2000 and March 28, 2001respectively.

ii) The valuation of untraded derivatives shall be done inaccordance with the valuation method for untradedinvestments prescribed in sub clauses (i) and (ii) of clause 2 ofthe Eighth Schedule to the Securities and Exchange Board ofIndia (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 as amended by SEBICircular No.MFD/CIR/8/92/2000 and MFD/CIR/14/088/2001dated September 18, 2000 and March 28, 2001 respectively.

In accordance with SEBI guidelines, the Fund enters intoderivative transactions in the form of Interest Rate Swaps forthe purposes of hedging and portfolio balancing.

RBI vide its circular no. MPD.BC.191/07.01.279/1999-2000dated November 1, 1999 has permitted mutual funds toenter into Interest Rate Swaps / Forward Rate Agreement forhedging and portfolio balancing. As per RBI circular no.MPD.BC.187/07.01.279/1999-2000 dated July 7, 1999 itspecifies that "The Swap that is accounted for like a hedgeshould be accounted for on accrual basis except the swapdesignated with an asset or liability that is carried at marketvalue or lower of cost or market value in the financialstatements. In that case the swap should be marked to marketwith the resulting gain or loss recorded as an adjustment tothe market value of designated asset or liability."

As per the said circular, swaps less than 6 months to beamortised and more than six months has to be valued /marked to market.

The valuation methods have not been prescribed either byRBI, SEBI or AMFI and as per Eighth Schedule of SEBI Regulation,the security should be marked to market and the Mutual Fundshould adopt fair valuation methods.

Valuation of Swaps :

A. Less than six months: Amortisation.

B. More than 6 months :

• The fixed and the floating rate sides have to bevalued.

• There are currently three swaps structures quoted inthe market.

• OIS (Overnight Interest Swaps)

• MIFOR (Mumbai Implied Forward OvernightRate)

• INBMK (Indian Benchmark)

• Use the Reuters benchmark curves for valuation.

• Reuters MIOIS = Mid 3.45 P.M. fixation for OIS swaps

• Reuters MIFOR= Mid 4.30 P.M. fixation for MIFORswaps

• Reuters MIOCS= Mid 5.00 P.M. fixation for MIFORswaps

34 IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund

• Fixed leg valuation:

• Fixed rate coupon to be discounted using the swapcurve.

• Floating leg valuation:

• Estimate the zero coupon curve based on thebenchmark par coupon curve

• Determine FRAs

• Estimate future cash flows on the floating leg

• PV the same using the benchmark curve.

• Final value of the swap: Sum of principal value offixed leg and the principal value of the floating leg.

• Interest accrued: Sum of interest accrued on the fixedleg and interest accrued on the floating leg.

For valuation purposes we adopt the end of the daybenchmarks released by Reuters for both OIS and MIFOR. Inthe case of INBMK Reuters does not provide end of daybenchmarks. Hence we need to poll the market for benchmarks.End of day, at 5.00 P.M., available indicative quotes would betaken from three market participants who can be polled for Bid /Ask quotes for the available swap tenors.

• The highest and the lowest Bid / Ask to be eliminated for eachtenor.

• Simple arithmetic average to be taken of the rest of the quotesand this is to be taken as the benchmark.

The valuation guidelines as outlined above are as per prevailingRegulations and are subject to change from time to time inconformity with changes made by SEBI.

All expenses and incomes accrued up to the valuation dateshall be considered for computation of NAV. For this purpose,major expenses like management fees and other periodicexpenses would be accrued on a day to day basis. The minorexpenses and income will be accrued on a periodic basis,provided the non-daily accrual does not affect the NAVcalculations by more than 1%.

Any changes in securities and in the number of units berecorded in the books not later than the first valuation datefollowing the date of transaction. If this is not possible giventhe frequency of the Net Asset Value disclosure, the recordingmay be delayed upto a period of seven days following thedate of the transaction, provided that as a result of the non-recording, the Net Asset Value calculations shall not be affectedby more than 1%.

In case the Net Asset Value of a scheme differs by more than1%, due to non - recording of the transactions, the investorsor scheme/s as the case may be, shall be paid the differencein amount as follows :-

(i) If the investors are allotted units at a price higher than NetAsset Value or are given a price lower than Net Asset Value atthe time of sale of their units, they shall be paid the differencein amount by the scheme.

(ii) If the investors are charged lower Net Asset Value at the timeof purchase of their units or are given higher Net Asset Valueat the time of sale of their units, asset management companyshall pay the difference in amount to the scheme. The assetmanagement company may recover the difference from theinvestors.

NAV of units under the Scheme shall be calculated as shownbelow :

NAV (Rs.) =

Market Current Currentor Fair Assets LiabilitiesValue of + including - andScheme's Accrued Provisionsinvestments Income

includingaccruedexpenses

No. of Units outstanding under Scheme

The valuation of the Scheme's assets and calculation of theScheme's NAV shall be subject to audit on an annual basis andshall be subject to such regulations as may be prescribed by SEBIfrom time to time. NAV shall be calculated up to four decimalplaces. However the AMC reserves the right to declare the NAVsup to additional decimal places as it deems appropriate.

During the continuous offer NAVs shall be calculated andannounced on all Business Days. The NAVs of the Growth Optionand the Dividend Option will be different after the declaration ofthe first dividend.

15. ACCOUNTING POLICIES & STANDARDS

In accordance with the Regulations, the AMC will follow theaccounting policies and standards, as detailed below :

a) The AMC, for the Scheme, shall keep and maintain properbooks of account, records and documents, so as to explainits transactions and to disclose at any point of time thefinancial position of the Scheme and, in particular, give a trueand fair view of the state of affairs of the Fund.

b) For the purposes of the financial statements, the Schemeshall mark all investments to market and carry investments inthe balance sheet at market value. However, since theunrealised gain arising out of appreciation on investmentscannot be distributed, provision shall be made for exclusionof this item when arriving at distributable income.

c) In respect of all interest-bearing investments, income shall beaccrued on a day-to-day basis as it is earned. Therefore, whensuch investments are purchased, interest paid for the periodfrom the last interest due date up to the date of purchase shallnot be treated as a cost of purchase but shall be debited toInterest Recoverable Account. Similarly, interest received atthe time of sale for the period from the last interest due dateup to the date of sale must not be treated as an addition tosale value but shall be credited to Interest Recoverable Account.

d) In determining the holding cost of investments and the gainsor loss on sale of investments, the "average cost" methodshall be followed for each security.

e) Transactions for purchase or sale of investments shall berecognised as of the trade date and not as of the settlementdate, so that the effect of all investments traded during afinancial year are recorded and reflected in the financialstatements for that year. Where investment transactions takeplace outside the stock market, for example, acquisitionthrough private placement or purchases or sales throughprivate treaty, the transaction would be recorded, in the eventof a purchase, as of the date on which the Scheme obtainsan enforceable obligation to pay the price or, in the event of

Page 41: IDFC Tax Saver ELSS Fund - Kotak SecuritiesIDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 1 SPONSOR The sponsor of IDFC Mutual Fund is Infrastructure Development Finance Company Limited (IDFC) NAME OF

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 35

a sale, when the Scheme obtains an enforceable right tocollect the proceeds of sale or an enforceable obligation todeliver the instruments sold.

f) Where income receivable on investments has been accruedand has not been received for a period specified in theguidelines issued by SEBI, provision shall be made by debitingto the revenue account for the income so accrued in themanner specified by guidelines issued by SEBI.

g) In a close ended scheme which provides to the unitholdersthe option for an early redemption or repurchase, the parvalue of the units shall be debited to capital account and thedifference between the redemption price and the par valueif positive shall be credited to reserves and if negative, shallbe debited to reserves.

h) The cost of investments acquired or purchased shall includebrokerage, stamp charges and any charge customarily includedin the broker's bought note. In respect of privately placeddebt instruments any front-end discount offered shall bereduced from the cost of the investment.

i) Underwriting commission shall be recognised as revenueonly when there is no devolvement on the Scheme. Wherethere is devolvement on the Scheme, the full underwritingcommission received and not merely the portion applicableto the devolvement shall be reduced from the cost of theinvestment.

The accounting policies and standards outlined above are asper the existing Regulations and are subject to change as perchanges in the Regulations.

Guidelines for Identification and Provisioning for Non-PerformingAssets (Debt Securities) for Mutual Funds:

(a) Definition of a Non-Performing Asset (NPA) :

An 'asset' shall be classified as non-performing, if the interestand/or principal amount have not been received or remainedoutstanding for one quarter from the day such income /instalment has fallen due.

(b) Effective date for classification and provisioning ofNPAs :

The definition of NPA may be applied after a quarter past duedate of the interest. For e.g. if the due date for interest is30.06.2003, it will be classified as NPA from 01.10.2003.

(c) Treatment of income accrued on the NPA and furtheraccruals :

• After the expiry of the 1st quarter from the date the incomehas fallen due, there will be no further interest accrual on theasset i.e. if the due date for interest falls on 30.06.2003 andif the interest is not received, accrual will continue till30.09.2003 after which there will be no further accrual ofincome. In short, taking the above example, from thebeginning of the 2nd calendar quarter there will be no furtheraccrual on income.

• On classification of the asset as NPA from a quarter past duedate of interest, all interest accrued and recognised in thebooks of accounts of the Fund till the date, should be providedfor. For e.g. if interest income falls due on 30.06.2003, accrualwill continue till 30.09.2003 even if the income as on30.06.2003 has not been received. Further, no accrual will bedone from 01.10.2003 onwards. Full provision will also bemade for interest accrued and outstanding as on 30.06.2003.

(d) Provision for NPAs - Debt Securities:

Both secured and unsecured investments once they arerecognized as NPAs call for provisioning in the same mannerand where these are related to close ended schemes thephasing would be such as to ensure full provisioning prior tothe closure of the scheme or the scheduled phasing whicheveris earlier.

The value of the asset must be provided in the followingmanner or earlier at the discretion of the fund. Fund will nothave discretion to extend the period of provisioning. Theprovisioning against the principal amount or instalmentsshould be made at the following rates irrespective of whetherthe principal is due for repayment or not.

• 10% of the book value of the asset should be provided forafter 6 months past due date of interest i.e. 3 months fromthe date of classification of the asset as NPA.

• 20% of the book value of the asset should be provided forafter 9 months past due date of interest i.e. 6 months fromthe date of classification of the asset as NPA.

• Another 20% of the book value of the assets should beprovided for after 12 months past due date of interest i.e. 9months form the date of classification of the asset as NPA.

• Another 25% of the book value of the assets should beprovided for after 15 months past due date of interest i.e. 12months from the date of classification of the asset as NPA.

• The balance 25% of the book value of the asset should beprovided for after 18 months past due date of the interest i.e.15 months from the date of classification of the assets as NPA.

Book value for the purpose of provisioning for NPAs shall betaken as a value determined as per the prescribed valuationmethod.

This can be explained by an illustration :

Let us consider that interest income is due on a half yearlybasis and the due date falls on 30.06.2002 and the interestis not received till 1st quarter after due date i.e. 30.09.2002.This provisioning will be done in the following phased manner:

10% provision 01.01.2003 6 months past duedate of interest i.e.3 months from thedate of classificationof asset as NPA(01.10.2002)

20% provision 01.04.2003 9 months past duedate of interest i.e.6 months from thedate of classificationof asset as NPA(01.10.2002)

20% provision 01.07.2003 12 months past duedate of interest i.e.9 months from thedate of classificationof asset as NPA(01.10.2002)

Page 42: IDFC Tax Saver ELSS Fund - Kotak SecuritiesIDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund 1 SPONSOR The sponsor of IDFC Mutual Fund is Infrastructure Development Finance Company Limited (IDFC) NAME OF

36 IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund

25% provision 01.10.2003 15 months past duedate of interest i.e.12 months from thedate of classificationof asset as NPA(01.10.2002)

25% provision 01.01.2004 18 months past duedate of interest i.e.15 months from thedate of classificationof asset as NPA(01.10.2002)

Thus, 1 1/2 years past the due date of income or 1 1/4 yearsfrom the date of classification of the 'asset' as an NPA, the'asset' will be fully provided for. If any instalment has fallendue, during the period of interest default, the amount ofprovision should be instalment amount or above provisionamount, whichever is higher.

(e) Reclassification of assets :

Upon reclassification of assets as 'performing assets' :

1. In case a company has fully cleared all the arrears of interest,the interest provisions can be written back in full.

2. The asset will be reclassified as performing on clearance of allinterest arrears and if the debt is regularly serviced over thenext two quarters.

3. In case the company has fully cleared all the arrears of interest,the interest not credited on accrual basis would be creditedat the time of receipt.

4. The provision made for the principal amount can be writtenback in the following manner:

• 100% of the asset provided for in the books will be writtenback at the end of the 2nd calendar quarter where the provisionof principal was made due to the interest defaults only.

• 50% of the asset provided for in the books will be writtenback at the end of the 2nd calendar quarter and 25% afterevery subsequent quarter where both instalments and interestwere in default earlier.

5. An asset is reclassified, as 'standard asset' only when bothoverdue interest and overdue instalments are paid in full andthere is satisfactory performance for a subsequent period of6 months.

(f) Receipt of past dues :

When the fund has received income/principal amount aftertheir classifications as NPAs,

• For the next two quarters, income should be recognised oncash basis and thereafter on accrual basis. The asset will becontinued to be classified as NPA for these two quarters.

• During this period of two quarters although the asset isclassified as NPA no provision needs to be made for theprincipal if the same is not due and outstanding.

• If part payment is received towards principal, the assetcontinues to be classified as NPA and provisions are continuedas per the norms set at (d) above. Any excess provision will bewritten back.

(g) Classification of Deep Discount Bonds as NPAs :

Investments in Deep Discount Bonds can be classified asNPAs, if any two of the following conditions are satisfied:

• If the rating of the Bond comes down to grade 'BB' orbelow.

• If the company is defaulting in their commitments inrespect of other assets, if available.

• Full Net worth erosion.

Provision should be made as per the norms set at (d) aboveas soon as the asset is classified as NPA.

Full provision can be made if the rating comes down to grade'D'.

(h) Reschedulement of an asset :

In case any company defaults on either interest or principalamount and the fund has accepted a reschedulement of theschedule of payments, then the following practice may beadhered to:

i. In case it is a first reschedulement and only interest is indefault, the status of the asset, namely 'NPA' may becontinued and existing provisions should not be writtenback. This practice should be continued for two quartersof regular servicing of the debt. Thereafter, this may beclassified as 'performing asset' and the interest providedmay be written back.

ii. If the reschedulement is done due to default in interestand principal amount, the asset should be continued asnon-performing for a period of 4 quarters, even thoughthe asset is continued to be serviced during these 4quarters regularly. Thereafter, this can be classified as'performing asset' and all the interest provided till suchdate should be written back.

iii. If the reschedulement is done for a second / third time orthereafter, the characteristic of NPA should be continuedfor eight quarters of regular servicing of the debt. Theprovision should be written back only after it is reclassifiedas 'performing asset'.

(i) Disclosure in the Half Yearly Portfolio Reports:

The mutual funds shall make scripwise disclosures of NPAs onhalf yearly basis along with the half yearly portfolio disclosure.

The total amount of provisions made against the NPAs shallbe disclosed in addition to the total quantum of NPAs andtheir proportion of the assets of the mutual fund scheme. Inthe list of investments an asterisk mark shall be given againstsuch investments, which are recognized as NPAs. Where thedate of redemption of an investment has lapsed, the amountnot redeemed shall be shown as 'Sundry Debtors' and notinvestment provided that where an investment is redeemableby instalments that will be shown as an investment until allinstalments have become overdue.

The guidelines for identification and provisioning for non-performing assets in respect of debt securities are as per theexisting Regulations and are subject to change as per changesin the Regulations.

1. TYPE OF SCHEME & INVESTMENT OPTIONS

IDFC Tax Saver (ELSS) Fund is a close ended Equity LinkedSavings Scheme.

Options available in the scheme:

Growth Option

The Scheme will generally not declare any dividend underthis option. The income attributable to Units under thisOption will continue to remain invested in the Scheme andwill be reflected in the Net Asset Value of Units under thisoption. This option is suitable for investors who are notlooking for dividend, but who have invested with theintention of capital appreciation. If the Units under thisoption are held as a capital asset for a period of at least oneyear, from the date of acquisition, Unitholders should getthe benefit of long term capital gains tax.

If no indication is given by the investor in the Scheme, thedefault options that will become applicable are as under :

If no indication is given under the following Defaultoption

Option Growth

Dividend Payout / reinvestment Reinvestment

Dividend Option

Under this option, the Fund will endeavour to declaredividends from time to time.

This option is suitable for investors seeking income throughdividend declared by the scheme. The distribution of dividendwill be made out of the net surplus under this Option subjectto availability of distributable profits, as computed inaccordance with SEBI Regulations. The remaining net surplusafter considering the dividend and tax, if any, payable thereonwill remain invested in the Scheme and be reflected in theNAV.

Dividends, if declared, to those Unitholders whose namesappear in the Register of Unitholders on the record date.There is no assurance or guarantee to Unitholders as to therate of dividend distribution nor that dividends will be paid,though it is the intention of the Mutual Fund to makedividend distributions under the Dividend Option of theScheme. In order to be a Unitholder, an investor has to beallocated Units against clear funds. The exact record date willbe communicated to the Registrar. Dividends declared underthe Reinvestment Option will be compulsorily reinvested ata price based on the prevailing Ex-Dividend Net Asset Valueper Unit.

Any such reinvestment will result in the Unit holder beingcredited with additional Units representing the value ofdividend reinvested at the ex-dividend NAV. The dividend soreinvested shall be constructive payment of dividend to theUnitholders and constructive receipt of the same amountfrom each Unitholder for reinvestment in Units.

However, it must be distinctly understood that the actualdeclaration of dividend and the frequency thereof will interalia, depend on the availability of distributable profits ascomputed in accordance with SEBI Regulations. The decision

V. UNITS ON OFFER

of the Trustee / AMC in this regard shall be final. The AMCreserves the right to change the record date and the AMCalso reserves the right to change the frequency of dividends.

Investors should indicate the Option for which thesubscription is made by indicating the choice in theappropriate box provided for this purpose in the applicationform. In case of valid applications received, without indicatingany choice of Option, it will be considered for the GrowthOption and processed accordingly. Investors may also opt toinvest in both the Options of the Scheme subject to minimumsubscription requirements under each Option.

The Fund reserves the right to introduce new investmentoption/s at a later date.

E. BORROWING BY THE MUTUAL FUND

Under the Regulations, the Fund is allowed to borrow to

meet its temporary liquidity needs of the Fund for the

interest or dividend to the Unitholders. Further, as per the

Regulations, the Fund shall not borrow more than 20% of

the Net Assets of the Scheme and the duration of such

borrowing shall not exceed a period of six months. The

Fund may raise such borrowings after approval by the Trustee

from any of its Sponsors/Associate/Group companies/

Commercial Banks in India or any other entity at market

related rates prevailing at the time and applicable to similar

borrowings. The security for such borrowings, if required,

will be as determined by the Trustee. Such borrowings, if

raised, may result in a cost, which would be dealt with in

consultation with the Trustees.

Till November 30, 2005, no borrowings had been made by

the Fund. However during the months of December, 2005

and January, 2006 there were borrowing in IDFC Cash Fund

(IDFCCF) for meeting the redemption requirements.

and April, 2008.

F. INTER-SCHEME TRANSFERS

Transfer of investments from one Scheme to another Scheme

under the Mutual Fund shall be allowed only if such transfers are

done in conformity with Regulations. In case of securities which

are not traded on the Principal Stock Exchange / any other

exchange, the inter-Scheme transfers will be effected based on

fair valuation to be arrived at by the AMC with the approval of

the Trustee.

G. STOCK LENDING

"If permitted by SEBI under extant regulations/guidelines, the

Scheme may also engage in stock lending. The Scheme may also

enter into 'Repo / Reverse Repo' transactions, as may be permitted

from time to time. Stock lending means the lending of stock to

another person or entity for a fixed period of time, at a negotiated

compensation. The securities lent will be returned by the borrower

on expiry of the stipulated period.

The risks in lending portfolio securities consists of counterparty

risk - inability to return the securities deposited by the lender and

the possible loss of any income accruing to the lender. Besides,

there can also be temporary illiquidity of the securities that are

lent out and the Scheme may not be able to sell such lent out

securities. It may be noted this activity would have the inherent

probability of collateral value drastically falling in tim times of

strong downward market trends.

Subject to the SEBI Regulations, the Mutual Fund may, engage

in Securities Lending. Such investments shall be made when in

view of the Fund Manager, such investments could provide

reasonable returns commensurate with risks associated with such

investments and shall be made in accordance with the investment

objective of the Scheme. Securities Lending means the lending

of Securities to another person or entity for a fixed period of

time, at a negotiated compensation in order to enhance returns

of the portfolio. The securities lent will be returned by the borrower

on the expiry of the stipulated period. The lending transactions

may require procurement of collateral which would exceed in

value, the value of the securities lent. The collateral can be in the

form of cash, bank guarantee, government securities or certificate

of deposits or other securities as may be agreed. As with other

modes of extensions of credit, there are risks inherent to securities

lending, including the risk of failure of the other party, in this

case the approved intermediary, to comply with the terms of the

agreement entered into between the lender of securities i.e. the

scheme and the approved intermediary. Such failure can result in

the possible loss of rights to the collateral put up by the borrower

of the securities, the inability of the approved intermediary to

return the securities deposited by the lender and the possible

loss of any corporate benefits accruing to the lender from the

securities deposited with the approved intermediary.

The Mutual Fund may not be able to sell such lent out securities

and this can lead to temporary illiquidity.

Under normal circumstances, the Scheme shall not have exposure

of more than 100% of its equity investments of the scheme in

stock lending activities. However the AMC with a view to protecting

the interests of the investors, may increase exposure in stock

lending activities as deemed fit from time to time.

H. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Trustee proposes to adopt the following dividend distribution

policy:

Dividends, if declared, will be paid out of the net surplus of the

Scheme / Plan to those Unitholders whose names appear in the

Register of Unitholders on the record date. The investors may
