Why to Invest in Mutual Funds?
Investing in mutual funds don't just hold one benefit, it comes with multiple advantages that help investors in growing their money. It helps in fulfilling short-, mid- and long-term investment goals. There are various fund options you can pick to invest, right from low-risk to high-risk schemes like debt and Equity Funds.
One of the important features that draw people's attention to mutual funds is the minimum investment amount. You can start investing in a SIP in just INR 500.
Let's look at some more reasons on why you should invest in Mutual Funds:
1. Liquidity
In open-ended schemes, it is easy to buy and exit a scheme. One can sell your units at any point (it is ideally suggested when markets are high). But, when you invest in a fund, you should know the exit load charges. In mutual funds, the transaction happens a day after the fund house releases that day’s Net Asset Value (NAV).
2. Diversification
The mutual fund holds various financial instruments such as stocks, fixed income instruments, gold, etc. Due to which, you can enjoy the benefits of diversification by investing in just one scheme. On the contrary, if individuals choose to directly invest in shares they need to research stocks of various companies before putting money.
3. Well-Regulated
The mutual fund industry in India is well-regulated by SEBI (The Securities and Exchange Board of India). It keeps a check on the functioning of all the mutual funds. In addition, these fund houses are also transparent wherein; they need to publish their performance reports at regular intervals.
4. Expert Management
Each MF scheme is managed by a dedicated fund manager. The fund manager’s objective is to ensure that the investors earn maximum returns from the scheme by keeping a constant watch on the performance and changing the Asset Allocation timely as per the market requirements.

Smart Tips to Invest in Best Mutual Funds: Lump Sum & SIP Investments
A perfect way to invest in the best performing mutual funds is by looking at both its qualitative and quantitative measures, such as:
1. Scheme Asset Size
Investors should always go for a fund that is neither too big nor too small in size. While there is no perfect definition and relation between the size of the fund, it is said that both too small or too large, can hinder a fund’s performance. Less Asset Under Management ( AUM) in any scheme is very risky as you don't know who the investors are & what quantum of investments they have in a particular scheme. Thus, while choosing a fund, it is advisable to go for the one whose AUM is approximately the same as the category.
2. Fund Performance
To invest in the best performing mutual funds, the investors should do a fair assessment of the fund's performances for over a period of time. Also, it is suggested to go for a scheme that consistently beats its benchmark over 4-5 years, additionally, one should see each period to check if the fund is able to beat the benchmark.
3. Total Expense Ratio
Investors who want to make investments in mutual funds have to bear certain charges like management fees, operation costs, etc., charged by the Asset Management Company (AMC). Many times, investors go for a fund that has a lower expense ratio, but it is something that should not supersede other important factors such as fund performance, etc.
