    @johnlebaptiste You're right on both counts :) I was not aware of GST.

    @montse811 The volumes for ICICINIFTY are pretty good as well. Not as high as Nifty Bees, I wouldn't be worried. See my previous post about tracking error during highly volatile times. Additionally, see the pdf I attached in my post from Vanguard about tracking error during volatile times...

    @ranran19 Correct, my point with this post was not to make a blanket statement like "ETF sahi hai" or something. For people who are interested, ETF's must not be dismissed as a viable investment vehicle.

    Let's settle the issue of ETF's and liquidity once and for all - Here's my analysis of six Indian ETFs and thier trading volumes

    @ranran19 I'm not sure I follow. My point is that over time (10Y or 20Y), tracking error should be pretty small for funds that have lower expense ratios and other costs. An ETF with high expense ratios may have higher tracking error when viewed over long periods of time. Yes, there is huge...

    @nischansr ETF volatility is a genuine concern, but you are making the assumption that you're dropping a large lumpsum amount during high volatility days. If you don't do anything during high volatility days and have some kind of SIP (manual), I don't think that it matters again. The best thing...

    @nischansr I have not tracked price but, I look at '1 Year', '3 Year' and 'Since Inception' comparisons of these funds and they are pretty much equal to their indexes (+-0.2%), which is good enough for me. Tracking errors can increase during volatile periods but as a passive investor it...

    Let's settle the issue of ETF's and liquidity once and for all - Here's my analysis of six Indian ETFs and thier trading volumes

    I've heard many arguments here about ETF's and liquidity etc. I think they are genuine concerns and needs to be looked into with a little more depth. I've taken six ETF's here - one's that I have currently invested in. I prefer ETF's to mutual funds as I get to track their history in a Google...
