Shariah, in general, refers to a set of guiding moral principles derived from the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed and is inseparable from the practice of Islam. In Arabic, “Sharia” literally means “path,” and is understood to be the path to salvation. Sharia is the sum total of the things that a Muslim must do & things they should refrain from doing.

Shariah-compliant funds have many requirements that must be adhered to. Some of the requirements for a Shariah-compliant fund include the exclusion of investments which derive a majority of their income from the sale of alcohol, pork products, pornography, gambling, military equipment or weapons. Other characteristics of a Shariah-compliant fund include an appointed Shariah board, an annual Shariah audit and purifying certain prohibited types of income, such as interest, by donating them to a charity.

Within the mutual fund industry, investors have a choice of two equity-oriented schemes. Of this, Tata Ethical Fund is the oldest and the only scheme with shariah-compliant certification from scholars. The other scheme namely, Taurus Ethical Fund, approved by SEBI as a Shariah-compliant scheme obtained a certification at the time of NFO launch and they use S&P BSE 500 Shariah Index list to benchmark and choose their stocks. We select the stocks from the same universe of Tata Ethical fund and also use S&P BSE 500 Shariah Index to ensure that we are complaint with the shariah law.
