Shortlisting method for Mutual Fund –

  • Type of Funds – The first factor for the shortlisting is a type of fund like large cap, small cap, mid cap, ELSS, debt, balance etc. I have tried to shortlist fund in all categories.
  • Fund performance – The second factor used for shortlisting of a fund is the fund performance. I have selected best performing fund 3-5 years.
  • Benchmark – I have taken into consideration the performance of the fund against a benchmark index.
  • Fund Rating – The third thing is fund rating. Higher the fund rating better is fund. I have considered rating given by CRISIL and Value Research. The fund rating above 3 stars are considered.
  • Fund Manager Expertise and Experience – A Fund manager is the person who makes the decision about buying, selling, or holding the stock in the mutual funds. The returns of the fund depend on the decision taken by the fund manager and its expertise.
  • Holdings – Another factor for the shortlisting of Best Mutual fund is fundholding. Fundholding with good blue-chip stocks or making an investment in stocks which are likely to appreciate in future.
  • Expense Ratio – Expense ratio is one of the important factors that affect mutual funds return. Higher the expense ratio means a lower return. All the funds given below are with low expense ratio.

Points to Consider before making Investment in Mutual Funds

  • You should be clear about your investment objective. Your investment objective should be matched with fund.
  • Do not diversify your mutual fund portfolio blindly. Invest in few mutual funds based on your goal. It is not necessary to invest in each category mutual funds to build your portfolio.
  • Follow SIP route for investment rather than doing lump sum investment. Invest in mutual funds for the long-term at least 3 years or above. If you are a risk adverse investor you can start building your portfolio by investing in debt or balance funds.
  • Never invest in mutual funds based on tips. Carry out proper analysis and research before making an investment. If you are unable to identify mutual fund take advice from expert or CFP.
  • Carry out assessment and balance your mutual fund portfolio at regular interval. Consider STP (Systematic Transfer Plan) for switching from one mutual fund to other.
  • If your mutual fund portfolio is generating negative returns, do not panic. Don’t redeem or Stop SIPs. Avoid taking any decision based on short-term market movements. Continue your SIPs for the longer period.
  • Prefer direct mutual funds scheme. Always invest in Growth based mutual funds over dividend based mutual funds. Stay away from New Fund offers (NFOs).
  • Please Remember “Mutual Funds Investments are subject to market risks. Please read the offer document carefully before investing”.

    Dear Raviraj Sir,

    Investing in a mutual fund house above Rs 10 Lakhs attracts notice from income tax. To avoid notice can one mention the whole amount received from a mutual fund redemption, as an exempt income in the return? Or is there any other way to avoid income tax notice when the investment amounts are legally earned? Please clarify how to avoid notices by investing above Rs 10 lakhs in a fund house. Such notices bring tensions.

    Dear Sir
    I found your article good and unbiased.
    I will be grateful if you can advice me in the following….
    I invested about 1 lakh each in Tata India Consumer fund , L&T Emerging business fund, L&T Infrastructure fund,and Motilal Oswal Multicap 35 fund in Jan 2018. Now after one year all the four funds gave considerably negative return. Shall I switch my investment now to some other funds or wait for some time??

    Dear Manish,

    If amount is earned legally, you should not bother about income tax notice. Unfortunately, there is no way to stop/avoid this notice. You should file your income tax returns and keep relevant proof that money earned is legal.

    Dear Raguprasad,

    Request you to wait for 6 months and if funds are not performing you can switch to other performing funds.
