Introduction
A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of
investors who share a common financial goal.
The money collected is invested in capital market instruments
such as shares, debentures etc.
The income earned through these investments and the capital
appreciation realized are shared by its unit holders.
The income earned is shared in proportion to the number of
units owned by them.
It is most suitable investment for the common man as it offers
an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally
managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost.
