Investment in equity is a risky proposition and requires large capital in order to gain a reasonable return. It is therefore not a viable investment for those will low risk-bearing capacity or live on fixed monthly incomes with little savings. Mutual funds allow such investors to invest small amounts in equity and collectively earn substantial long-term gains.


Investment in equity whether by trading or through mutual funds is subject to risk. However, investing through mutual funds is safer and you stand a chance to get higher returns. Mutual funds have the advantage of experience and expertise of its managers. Moreover, the risk involved is lower since you only invest small amounts. Mutual funds also offer the flexibility of investing as and when you have the funds. Axis Equity Funds invest for the most part in large cap company stock – except for the small cap fund, which invests only in small cap equity. The investment is made after a careful study of company profiles and market trends.


NAV or Net Asset Value is the value of the fund at any given point of time. It is equivalent to your investment and the returns earned on it. It reflects the combined value of the stock in which the fund invests. A glance at the NAV of any mutual fund over a period can give you a fair idea about its performance.
