should you invest:
Apart from RGESS tax benefit, discount and loyality units ,this index constitutes more oil,Gas or power sector stocks. Its always difficult to take any sector specific call.Also govt owned companies have their own concerns .Investing in this ETF ,means investing sector specific PSUs which can be avoided.
