How should I start investing?

I am new to investing in mutual funds. I want to know about how to start investing?

Neeraj Chauhan, CEO, The Financial Mall, responds:

Consult a financial planner or an investment advisor to get your queries solved. You can also read blogs and books to have a deeper knowledge if you want to be a do-it-yourself (DIY) investor. You need to complete know-your-customer (KYC) formalities before start investing in mutual funds.
