Before seeing the list, investors should note that this exercise is for informational purposes only. It is not intended to recommend any fund for investment.
One should never invest in a mutual fund scheme on the basis of past performance only. Moreover, the one-year returns of a fund don’t say much about its quality or suitability for an investor.
