About Mutual Funds

A Mutual Fund is a collective investment scheme that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common financial goal. These schemes are regulated and open to general public. Each scheme of a mutual fund can have different character and objectives to suit a variety of investment needs.

Mutual funds issue units to the investors, which represent an equitable right in the assets of the mutual fund. i.e., each investor owns shares, which represent a portion of the holdings of the fund.

With Kotak Securities, you can invest in over 3000 different mutual fund schemes (in the Indian stock market).

Types of Mutual Funds

By Structure

Close Ended Fund/ Scheme: The fund is open for subscription only during a specified period at the time of launch of the scheme. It is called a closed-end fund/scheme because new shares are rarely issued once the fund has launched. A close-ended fund or scheme has a stipulated maturity period of 5-7 years and are not easily redeemable. Investors can invest in the scheme at the time of the initial public issue and thereafter they can buy or sell the units of the scheme on the stock exchanges where the units are listed. Open Ended Fund/ Scheme: An open-ended mutual fund is the most common type of mutual fund which is available for investment. An investor can choose to invest or transact in these schemes whenever he likes to. In an open-ended mutual fund, there is no limit to the number of investors, shares, or overall size of the fund, unless the fund manager decides to close the fund to new investors in order to keep it manageable. There is no specific “maturity period” in these types of funds/schemes. It contrasts with a closed-end fund, which typically issues all the shares it will issue at the beginning. The value or share price of an open-ended mutual fund is determined at the market close every day and is called the Net Asset Value (NAV). Interval Schemes: Interval Schemes are that scheme, which combines the features of open-ended and close-ended schemes. The units may be traded on the stock exchange or may be open for sale or redemption during pre-determined intervals at NAV related prices. FMP or the Fixed Maturity Plans are the example for these types of schemes.

.  The objective of these Funds is to invest in debt papers. Private companies, Government authorities, banks and financial institutions are some of the major issuers of debt papers. These schemes aim to provide investors with the best of both types of investments. As the name suggest they, balanced funds are a mix of both equity and debt funds.

Equity mutual funds are also known as “stock mutual funds”. These funds invest a maximum part of their pooled money into equities

By Investment Objective

Growth Schemes Growth Schemes are also called “equity schemes”. The main objective of these schemes is to provide capital appreciation over medium to long term. These schemes invest a major part of their fund in equities and are willing to bear short-term decline in value for possible future appreciation. Income Schemes Income Schemes are also known as debt schemes. The aim of these schemes is to provide regular and steady income to investors. These schemes generally invest in fixed income securities such as bonds and corporate debentures. Capital appreciation in such schemes may be limited. Index Schemes As the name suggests, the portfolio of these schemes will consist of only those stocks that constitute the index. The percentage of each stock to the total holding will be identical to the stocks index weight age. Index schemes attempt to replicate the performance of a particular index such as the BSE Sensex or the NSE 50. And hence, the performance from such schemes would be more or less equivalent to the performance of the Index.
