investment in shares It has always been very risky to do so. At the same time, there is risk in mutual funds too but it is much less as compared to shares. Investors invest in shares to get higher returns but mutual funds have given higher returns in the long run than shares. Today we are telling you about one such mutual fund scheme, which has created a fund of Rs 1 crore with a monthly SIP of Rs 2000. This mutual fund scheme is HDFC Top 100 Fund. Let us know how this fund has made investors rich.

It has given returns of 18.57 percent in the last 3 years, 20.08 percent in the last 5 years and 15.36 percent in the last 7 years.
