You have not mentioned your investment horizon and goal. Without this information, it is not possible to comment on the suitability of these schemes to you. Here are some general observations. One, you are investing in too many schemes. Two, it is not clear why you are investing in large cap schemes, a gold scheme, income fund, etc? Three, you are investing in four schemes of Quant Mutual Funds, which increases the concentration risk.

It is always better to invest in a focused portfolio. Investing in too many schemes often leads to over-diversification and it dilutes the overall returns from the portfolio. The idea behind diversification is to spread your investments across different asset classes based on your investment objectives and risk tolerance and secure maximum returns.


If you don't understand much about investing in mutual funds and asset allocation, you should seek the help of a mutual fund advisor or financial planner.
