Match Your Needs to Mutual Fund
25 Aug 2022
- Mutual funds help meet a broad range of needs, right from wealth preservation to wealth accumulation to tax-saving.
- It is up to the investor to list down all that he wants to achieve with his money and pick mutual funds that are best positioned to help him meet his goals
Let’s see how this works in the real world with the three broad objectives that most investors hold dear:
- Accumulating wealth for retirement planning / child's education - think Equity Funds or Hybrid Funds
- Preserving wealth for contingencies – Debt & Debt Hybrid Funds
- Saving tax – tax-saving Funds
Let’s take Virat who has these three objectives on his bucket list. He has Rs 15,000 that he wants to earmark towards the three goals monthly. For the sake of simplicity, he divides the sum equally in three parts towards each of these goals via a monthly SIP of Rs 5,000. This is how his money is likely to grow over time
| Period | Monthly SIP (Rs) | Mutual Fund Category | CAGR | Market Value* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 Years | 5,000 | Debt Hybrid Fund | 8% | 9,20,828 |
| 10 Years | 5,000 | Equity Hybrid Fund | 10% | 10,32,760 |
| 10 Years | 5,000 | Equity Fund | 12% | 11,61,695 |
