Mutual Fund: If your investment target is long-term, then experts often recommend investing in mutual funds. If you are refraining from investing directly in equity, then mutual funds are a good option for high returns. There is less risk than equity, while returns are higher than fixed income scheme. Mutual fund schemes of the same period can offer double to 3 times the returns of traditional investment options like FD and NSC. Where it takes 11 to 12 years for money to double in FD or NSC, in some schemes of equity mutual funds, your money has doubled in half of its time. We have given information of some such top equity funds here. These have seen the performance of largecap, multicap, large and midcap, midcap and smallcap funds.
