A mutual fund is a financial instrument that pools money from various investors who share a common financial goal. Whether you have a few hundred rupees or a substantial amount, you can invest in mutual funds.
Investors buy units of specific mutual fund schemes, each with a defined investment objective and strategy. The collected funds are then invested by professional fund managers across various securities, such as stocks, bonds, and money market instruments.
Open-Ended Schemes
These funds have no fixed maturity and offer liquidity. You can buy and sell units at any time based on the Net Asset Value (NAV).
Close-Ended Schemes
These have a stipulated maturity period. You invest during the initial issue, and later trade units on stock exchanges where they are listed.
Interval Schemes
Combining features of open-ended and close-ended schemes, interval schemes have specific transaction and interval periods.
