Mutual fund is such a financial instrument used for investing which provides you an oppertunity to invest in stock markets and gain out of it with reduced risks. ie People who have less expertise to invest in stock market and lack with the skills or time they invest in a collective investment vehicle known as Mutual fund\nLet me explain you by an example..\n\nthere are 5 friend A<B<C<D<E\n\nThey all want to invest in stock markets but they don't have that much knowlegdge and time so they collect money 10000 each and give to A as he is expert. After a year the money becomes 1 lakh so they distribute among them equally.\n\nIf such things are done at large ie National level or universal level than they do it through Mutual funds \n\nTotol money is devided into units of 10 Rs each and profit is calculated on unit basis\n\nie New MF is priced at unit of 10Rs. If you invest 10000Rs u will be alloted 1000 units. When the stocks of this MF will grow the price of each unit will increse lets say 15 Rs after 1 year. Now when you will sell your 1000 units at a price of 15each you will get 15000 ie 50% Returns. The performance is measured by NAV (NET ASSET VALUE) of the fund \n\nCalculation of Net Asset Value\n\nMutual Funds raise money by selling their shares to public and redeeming them at current net asset value. Net Asset Value is the value of assets of the each unit of the scheme. Thus is the NAV is more than the face value of Rs 10, there is an appreciation for the investment. If the NAV is less than the face value, it indicates the depreciation of the investment. NAV also includes dividends, interest accruals and reduction of liabilities and expenses apart from market value of investment. Every Mutual Fund shall compute the NAV of each scheme by dividing the net asset of the scheme by the number of units of that scheme outstanding on the date of the valuation and public the same at least in two daily newspapers at intervals not exceeding one week. However, the NAV of any scheme for special target segment or any monthly scheme which are not mandatory required to be listed in the stock exchange may publish the NAV at monthly or quarterly intervals as permitted by SEBI.\n\n\nThe formula for calculation of NAV

Mutual funds are pools of money that are managed by an investment company. They offer investors a variety of goals, depending on the fund and its investment charter. Some funds, for example, seek to generate income on a regular basis. Others seek to preserve an investor's money. Still others seek to invest in companies that are growing at a rapid pace. Funds can impose a sales charge, or load, on investors when they buy or sell shares.\n\nYou invest in it by purchasing the fund from the investment company.\n\nThe investment company will have a minimum requirement on how long you may hold the fund before selling.

mutual fund, in finance, investment company or trust that has a very fluid capital stock. It is unique in that at any time it can sell or redeem any of its outstanding shares at net asset value (i.e., the price of a share equals total assets minus liabilities divided by the total number of shares). A mutual fund, also called an open-end investment company, owns the securities of several corporations and receives dividends on the shares that it holds. A closed-end investment company differs from an open-end company in that the number of shares is limited and the price of the shares may fluctuate above and below the net asset value. The earnings of a mutual fund are distributed to the holders of its shares. It is hoped that a loss on one holding will be made up by a gain on another. The holders of mutual-fund shares thus gain the advantage of diversification, which might ordinarily be beyond their means. Common mutual funds, which often provide skilled management for security holdings, include stock, bond, balanced, index, and money-market funds. Stock funds mainly invest in common shares, and bond funds in bonds; such funds may specialize in a particular category of stocks or bonds (such as Internet stocks or municipal bonds). A balanced fund might invest in preferred stocks and bonds in addition to common stocks. Index funds invest in a portfolio that mimics a given index, such as the stocks that make up the S&P 500. The forerunner of the modern mutual fund was established in Belgium in 1822, and the use of these closed-end investment companies soon spread to Great Britain and France. They became popular in the United States in the 1920s, but from the 1930s the open-end mutual fund became more popular. Mutual funds experienced a period of tremendous growth after World War II, especially in the 1980s and 90s.

Mutual fund schemes may be classified on the basis of its structure and its investment objective. \n\nBy Structure: \n\nOpen-ended Funds An open-end fund is one that is available for subscription all through the year. These do not have a fixed maturity. Investors can conveniently buy and sell units at Net Asset Value ("NAV") related prices. The key feature of open-end schemes is liquidity.\n\nClosed-ended Funds A closed-end fund has a stipulated maturity period which generally ranging from 3 to 15 years. The fund is open for subscription only during a specified period. 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 they are listed. In order to provide an exit route to the investors, some close-ended funds give an option of selling back the units to the Mutual Fund through periodic repurchase at NAV related prices. SEBI Regulations stipulate that at least one of the two exit routes is provided to the investor.\n\nInterval Funds Interval funds combine the features of open-ended and close-ended schemes. They are open for sale or redemption during pre-determined intervals at NAV related prices.\n\nBy Investment Objective:\n\nGrowth Funds The aim of growth funds is to provide capital appreciation over the medium to long- term. Such schemes normally invest a majority of their corpus in equities. It has been proven that returns from stocks, have outperformed most other kind of investments held over the long term. Growth schemes are ideal for investors having a long-term outlook seeking growth over a period of time.\n\nIncome Funds The aim of income funds is to provide regular and steady income to investors. Such schemes generally invest in fixed income securities such as bonds, corporate debentures and Government securities. Income Funds are ideal for capital stability and regular income.\n\nBalanced Funds The aim of balanced funds is to provide both growth and regular income. Such schemes periodically distribute a part of their earning and invest both in equities and fixed income securities in the proportion indicated in their offer documents. In a rising stock market, the NAV of these schemes may not normally keep pace, or fall equally when the market falls. These are ideal for investors looking for a combination of income and moderate growth.\n\nMoney Market Funds The aim of money market funds is to provide easy liquidity, preservation of capital and moderate income. These schemes generally invest in safer short-term instruments such as treasury bills, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and inter-bank call money. Returns on these schemes may fluctuate depending upon the interest rates prevailing in the market. These are ideal for Corporate and individual investors as a means to park their surplus funds for short periods.\n\nLoad Funds A Load Fund is one that charges a commission for entry or exit. That is, each time you buy or sell units in the fund, a commission will be payable. Typically entry and exit loads range from 1% to 2%. It could be worth paying the load, if the fund has a good performance history.\n\nNo-Load Funds A No-Load Fund is one that does not charge a commission for entry or exit. That is, no commission is payable on purchase or sale of units in the fund. The advantage of a no load fund is that the entire corpus is put to work.\n\nOther Schemes: \n\nTax Saving Schemes These schemes offer tax rebates to the investors under specific provisions of the Indian Income Tax laws as the Government offers tax incentives for investment in specified avenues. Investments made in Equity Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS) and Pension Schemes are allowed as deduction u/s 88 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The Act also provides opportunities to investors to save capital gains u/s 54EA and 54EB by investing in Mutual Funds, provided the capital asset has been sold prior to April 1, 2000 and the amount is in
