An individual has various options available in the market in which he can invest his money. Every individual has a different level of income. Some of them have lower income, some are moderate-income earners, while some have higher income. The investment amount also varies according to the level of income an individual possesses. An individual with lower income or moderate-income levels cannot invest higher amounts regularly or they cannot dedicate a huge lump-sum amount at a single point in time. Hence, mutual funds offer investors to invest in amounts as small as Rs 500, which aids small as well as a big investor to get the habit of investing.

This encourages youngsters i.e. individuals who start their journey of earnings to invest right from a young age. It also enables the creation of a large corpus if investors invest for a longer time. Individuals, who are at an early stage of earning, have a high-risk capacity as compared to mid-earning or pre-retirement and retirement stage investors. So, investors with high-risk capacity can invest the amount in equity-related schemes in their early stage and further, can shift some proportion to debt once they get decent returns from the equity markets.
