In which mutual fund should i invest ?


I am a salaried professional who started working last year. At this point of time i am exploring my options at investing some amount out of my salary for my future. At this point of time i will be able to spare only Rs.2000 to Rs. 3000 monthly. Being a first time investor i am not familiar with all the funds. Can anyone advise me on which fund should i invest ? Should i go for an SIP of a particular fund or Buy funds every month. Is it possible to buy funds for just Rs. 2000 ? Will it be benefitial considering the entry and exit loads.

A couple of important questions would be "how old are you" and "what are your investment objectives"? Do you need immediate income our a you looking for capital appreciation building for retirement? Do you have a family and children that you need to take into consideration college expenses? Are you a conservative investor or agressive? etc. etc.

Different funds are setup for different objectives. For example Bond Funds generate a steady immediate income if you were at retirement age and wanted an income stream. Whereas a samll or midcap funds is geared more towards capital appreciation to build that nest egg.

I know that this probably generates more questions that it answers but it may help to properly place your hard earned money.

Cheers,

Paul

It is better to invest by SIP since the amount you want to invest monthly as savings.You can invest Rs.500+ in any funds. In the current scenario SIP is better since the stock market is facing fluctuations.
The funds like HSBC advantage India fund, Fidility India Special Situation Fund are the two good funds recently commenced. If tax savings option you require invest in Franklin Taxshield or SBI Magnum

Dont invest in funds. Look FOREX you can make big money.
