Why invest in mutual funds?
As we have seen with HDFC Top 200 Fund, returns from mutual funds are consistent. For an average investor, it is a difficult task to decide which stock to buy, how much to buy and when to sell.Investing in mutual funds offer diversification to reduce risk substantially.
Though one can invest in stocks directly, after considerable research, it is not a bad idea to invest some amount in mutual funds.
