Frequently Asked Questions

What are debt-funds?
Debt funds is an investment vehicle that mainly invest in fixed income securities like corporate bonds, treasury bills, government securities and other money market instruments.
What is recommended investment duration?
It is the suggested period for which one should invest in a mutual fund. It does not mean that the money will be locked-in for that period. While the investor can withdraw the money anytime before, it is advisable to stay invested for the suggested period to reap the best benefits (returns).
What are annualized returns?
The return for a period more than 1 year is annualized. For instance, a 3-Year Return (annualized) of 18% means the fund gave 18% return each year, on an average, for the last 3 years. An initial investment of Rs 1000 would have grow into: Rs 1000*1.18*1.18*1.18 = Rs 1643 in 3 years.
What is a lock-in period?
It is the period for which your money will remain locked in the mutual fund. Most mutuals do not have any lock-in period. ELSS, Tax-Savers, come with a lock-in of 3 years which is the lowest compared to other 80C investment options.

SIP comes with few advantages: It allows you to invest small amount every month without the stress of paying in bulk. Investing all through the year averages the cost of investing - you don?t end up paying too much per unit of mutual fund. Gives you financial discipline
