Mutual funds are down by 40% due to economic slowdown. Even for people who invested 3yr ago, returns are just around 6% and that too total which means 2% YoY. Even if ppl had kept them idle in their savings account they would have got 3.5-4% YoY return.
Smart marketing (Mutual Fund Sahi Hai), SIPs, attractive ads have spoiled wealth of crores of Indians including me. Suffering heavy losses in the name of market volatility, economic slowdown. Worst gamble in the world- mutual funds

TL;DR- Mutual funds bilkul bhi sahi nahi hai.

Well, they always said,
Mutual fund investments are subject to market risks. Please read the offer document carefully before investing.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

When i put money in ELSS for tax saving, i am mentally prepared for upto 30% loss, which other wise i would have to pay as tax.If an ELSS is giving more than -30% return, you are still in profit

It’s expected. Shares are down by 50-60%. If you want to take benefit then invest more right now.

Exactly. This is the time to create wealth.

Whoever can afford to invest some money now, they will easily double, triple or even quadruple their capital in a matter of a couple of years.

1. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Put your money in equity and debt funds. Read about asset allocation for different goals, basically decide your equity allocation based on when you need money.
2. Reduce your equity portion as your goal approaches. Just imagine this : you need 40 lakhs for your child education in future for which you are investing for 15 years and market falls like this. So goal setting and ASSET ALLOCATION is important.
3. Re balance every year or every 6 months to maintain asset allocation depending on your comfort.
4. You can achieve 10% returns in long term, 12% is possible and anything above 12% depends on your luck.

It’s time to invest as much as possible at every crash. Invest only that fund which u won’t need in next 3-5 years

For small retail investors, equity mutual funds was never “Sahi”. The more secure option for long term investment for most retail persons for last 4 years has been NPS. It partly insulates you from such market risks as it is a combination of both debt and equity and also gives you the benefit of tax savings.
Remember that Share market is only for investing money that you can afford to lose. Equity mutual fund is just a lazy extension of the share market. If you are investing money you can not afford to lose, do not even touch Equity MF or Equity shares.

100% investment in equity MFs are anyway never suggested by any financial expert in any top newspaper financial advice column but every one of them do suggest to allocate at least 30% for age group less than 40. NPS seems better because its fund managers are a few handpicked ones by govt with strict instructions to prioritize safety over gains hence the DHFL & IL&FS scams didn’t hit NPS as hard as all other debt funds because being “strict” here means not just blindly believing credit agencies ratings. Check my above post,MFs operating from 1993 & still gave more than decent returns.
