32. CONCULSION
HDFC TOP 200 FUND is grown up fund. Fund
value is high.
HDFC Mid Cap Opportunities is growing fund.
Fund value is less so more number of fund can be
purchased & redeemed.
If we judge by current NAV details, then the NAV
of the HDFC Mid Cap Opportunities is low, so its
better to purchase it now and to sell it when NAV
will be high.
Hence it is suggested to purchase HDFC Mid Cap
Opportunities.
