Some important mutual fund schemes under the following three categories based on maturity period of investment:
I. Open-Ended - This scheme allows investors to buy or sell units at any point in time. This does not have a fixed maturity date.
1. Debt/ Income - In a debt/income scheme, a major part of the investable fund are channelized towards debentures, government securities, and other debt instruments. Although capital appreciation is low (compared to the equity mutual funds), this is a relatively low risk-low return investment avenue which is ideal for investors seeing a steady income.
