I am an aggressive investor. I have been investing in the mutual funds listed below for the past one year (Rs 2,500 in each scheme).
SBI Bluechip Fund
HDFC Small Cap Fund
L&T Emerging Business Fund
ABSL Pure Value Fund
Motilal Oswal Multicap 35 Fund
I have picked these funds on my own research and studies. I am planning to stay for the long term and would like to invest more (SIP). Do I need to add a new fund or to invest more on any of the above funds?

Mutual fund advisors typically ask aggressive investors to invest mostly in mid cap and small cap mutual fund schemes based on their risk appetite. These investors can also take a small exposure to multi cap mutual funds if they want to diversify and reduce the overall risk in their mutual fund portfolio.

However, you are currently investing in three schemes – a large cap scheme, value-oriented scheme, multi cap scheme – that are meant for conservative and moderate equity investors. The two small cap schemes – HDFC Small Cap Fund and L&T Emerging Business Fund – are in line with your aggressive risk profile.


Firstly, assess your risk profile by taking an online quiz. Next, check once again whether your schemes match your risk profile. Lastly, if you find these task a bit too much to handle, find out a good mutual fund advisor in your locality and seek his help.
