Investment Style
High return debt funds are aggressive by investment style to balance risks and rewards. These kinds of funds usually invest significant portions of their portfolios into higher-yielding instruments that include corporate bonds, those securities with slightly lower credit ratings, or longer-duration government bonds. In this kind of investment, the expectation is that it will take on marginally higher risk to deliver greater returns than conservative debt funds would. This style is suitable for investors who prioritize growth over safety.
Expense Ratio
The expense ratio is the annual charge levied by mutual funds to invest in your account and, in case of debt funds, it is relatively lesser than that of equity funds. The expense ratio is usually in the range of 0.5% to 1.5%, based on the size of the fund and its management approach. A low expense ratio is beneficial since it affects the net returns of investors, and debt funds become a preferred option for frugal investors.
Entry and exit load charges
While entry load charges are negligible or often waived for most debt funds, exit loads may apply if an investor withdraws funds within a specified period, typically 1 to 3 years. These charges can range from 0.5% to 2% of the withdrawn amount. It is essential to review the fund’s lock-in terms before investing to avoid unexpected deductions and align the investment with your financial goals.
Brokerage Charges
It is brokerage charges that are really paid when one buys and sells mutual fund units from an intermediary. These might be small but they do affect the returns, especially for the short-term investor who keeps selling and buying. It is negligible for most long-term investors. Being aware of this type of cost is important in maximizing the net return from your investment.

Value Research grades mutual funds on three criteria: consistency, risk-adjusted returns, and expense ratios. These grades help investors to identify the funds that may have a long-term prospect. Grades are usually on a scale of 1 to 5, wherein higher-grade funds have a better performance and lower risk.
Equity mutual funds are best suited for investors who have a long-term risk and accept market volatility. In other words, these mutual funds are best suited to those with a higher appetite for risk and a 5-10 year horizon.
Diversified equity funds are recommended for first-time investors. Small-cap or sectoral funds can be chosen by seasoned investors for better returns. Equity funds also help those with savings for specific goals like retirement or property purchase. Based on your personal financial goals and taking a financial advisor into consideration, the suitability can be determined.
Risk Appetite: Since equity funds are volatile in nature, your risk-taking capacity must be evaluated before investing.
Fund Performance: Check the fund's historical returns over different timeframes.
Expense Ratio: Lower expense ratios ensure higher net returns.
Investment Horizon: Longer horizons mitigate market volatility and optimize growth.
Fund Manager’s Expertise: A skilled fund manager improves fund performance.
Diversification: Choose funds that diversify across sectors and stocks.
Equity mutual funds face market risks, which involve economic changes, company performances, and global factors. Investors need to be ready for short-term volatility.
High performing mutual funds are a lucrative means of growing investments for various risk-takers. Not all investors look to just beat inflation with their investments. Some look for more. One can get the right alignment of an investment strategy toward achieving financial goals by cautiously evaluating the categories of the fund, expense ratios, and market performance. Investing in mutual funds requires hard work, but with the right strategy, these funds can highly increase the value of your portfolio.
