Assume that you have 50,000 Rs. as savings, how many alternatives you have for

12. Recurring Deposits
13. Government Bonds

15. Tax Saving Plans (Insurance)
Above all are the alternatives to invest our money and generating good return out of that.
But I personally believe that best investment is invest in Mutual Fund.
Because, when you buy a mutual fund, you pay a management fee as part of your expense
ratio, which is used to hire a professional portfolio manager who buys and sells stocks, bonds,
etc. This is a relatively small price to pay for getting professional help in the management of
an investment portfolio.

Here, in above link data of the Mutual Funds’ returns. Due to this ‘Covid19’ situation 6 months
returns shows in negative but we can see here that after the market recovery from the last 3
months it shows about 15 to 20 percent return.
Thus, I believe that investing in Mutual Fund is a healthy investment option.
