To invest in mutual fund how to identify/select a good mutual fund?


I am new to mutual fund investment and i want proper guidance before investing my money my age is 42years

Considering your age, I would suggest looking into equity funds about 3-4 all with growth options.Lets go slow in the beginning till you get a feel of it and settle down for the long innings ahead. start with Rs 2000 SIP in each fund on autodebit with ECS facility for 6 months and extend your investing period from there. You can contact any private bank for the same.Include an ELSS if you have not reached the 1 lac target for tax benefits.

Perfoming ones are,
Franklin India Bluechip fund
HDFC Equity fund
Reliance Growth Fund
PruICICI Dynamic fund
ELSS- Franklin INdia Taxshield

And please for Gods sake do not go for new fund offers, please I am telling you from a personal experience.
Have a long time horizon of atleast 5 years.With investments in the above funds I assure you of healthy nights sleep.

there are ratings provided to the m-funds and also find out where the m-fund invest ur money in .......and imp of all is find its balance.

If you have 10 years or more to invest, Seriously think aggressive. In fact, don't look at any investment that gives less than 12% return over the 10 year benchmarks, till you are just about to retire. Then roll that fund over to an annuity to pay out during your retirement.
