Do you think all Tax Saving Mutual Funds are same...

Main purpose of this blog post is to explain investors that all ELSS or TAX SAVING Mutual Funds are not one and the same. Investor who are investing in ELSS schemes might well be aware that ELSS scheme comes under Diversify Equity Mutual Funds but they may not aware that ELSS Scheme also have Aggressive and Safer & Balanced approach. 

  • Aggressive Approach - In this approach ELSS mainly bet on small and mid cap stocks and hence they have more return potential with bit of more risk. 
  • Safer and Balanced Approach - In this ELSS mainly bet on Giant and Large cap stocks, which are more safer than mid and small cap stocks.
Investors needs to understand this that they should invest in that ELSS Scheme which meet there risk appitete. It is also important that they should not invest entire money in just 1 ELSS Scheme which cover both the approaches (i.e Aggressive and Safer & Balanced).
