3.When Shri Pareek visit Icici direct website he found that Axis Long Term Equity Fund (G) give 26.8% returns in last 3 year.
4.Now Dr. RamswarupPareek has a question "This 26.8% returns is annualized or absolute?
in details if he invest INR 100 in 2012 then in 2015 what he get?
First Option:- He get INR 126.80 if this 26.8% returns is absolute means only 26.8% returns in his 3 year holding period.
Second Option:- He get INR 203.80 if this 26.8% returns is annualized means after one year his investment grow 26.8% and his portfolio value 126.80 then in second year it again grow 26.8% now his portfolio value is 160.78 and in third year his investment again grow 26.8% means at the end of third year his portfolio value is 203.80.
5.Now he call to Icicidirect and ask this question to there customer care representative .
The customer care officer of Icici Direct told that First option is right and you get only 26.80 rupees return on your investment of 100 rupee in last 3 year plus you get tax benefits on your investments.
