On such basis, investors can be classified as risk-averse, risk-neutral, or risk-seeker. Assessing this aspect will help you invest in the right type of funds \u2013 a risk-seeking investor must invest in equity funds, whereas those who wish to avoid risks must invest in debt-oriented funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- Links Ads- Horizontal -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"9920129301\" data-ad-format=\"link\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0548205572604330\" data-ad-slot=\"1456790708\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>#Tip 3<\/em>&nbsp;Know all about the different mutual fund categories<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the basic categorisation of lumpsum or SIP investments, MF schemes are further divided into different categories, each serving distinct individual needs. For instance, \u2013 equity funds are ideal for risk-seeking investors, debt-oriented funds are ideal for risk-averse individuals; whereas hybrid funds are for those who wish to have a balanced portfolio. It is essential to choose the right category of funds to meet your investment objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>#Tip 4<\/em>\u00a0Always diversify your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gccremit.com\/blog\/category\/investments\/\">investments<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDo not put all your eggs in one basket!\u201d Similarly, never invest your entire corpus in a single mutualfund scheme. The safest yet highly profitable approach is to invest in multiple MF schemes so as to diversify or spread the risk. As a result, even if one of the schemes does not perform as expected, you can rest assured that other schemes will compensate for its performance.

However, it is always better to add an ELSS or Equity Linked Savings Scheme to your investment portfolio. Under such funds, you can claim tax deduction up to Rs. 1.5 lakhs, according to Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
