    Types of Mutual Fund Returns & Their Benefits Image Source -

    mutual funds types
    (source: moneycontrol)

    A mutual fund is a financial vehicle where a pool of money is collected from the investors to invest in bonds, money market instruments, stocks and other assets. Depending on the investment objectives and type of returns and securities, a mutual fund can belong to several categories.

    Keep reading to know what are mutual fund returns and their types.

    What Are Mutual Fund Returns?

    Mutual fund returns are those returns that depend on the performance of the fund. Individuals can calculate it by evaluating the change in final investment value from the initial investment value over a particular period.

    What Are the Types of Mutual Fund Returns?

    There are many types of mutual fund returns. Some of which are –

    • Absolute Returns – It refers to the amount by which a mutual fund scheme has increased or decreased in a certain period. Absolute returns can be positive or negative.

    Let us take the example of Mr Ravi, who invested ₹ 1.5 lakhs in a mutual fund scheme. The present value of the invested amount is ₹ 2.5 lakhs. You can calculate the absolute return for Mr Ravi using the following formula –

    Absolute Return = ((Final Investment Value – Initial Investment Value) / Initial Investment Value) * 100.

    Particulars

    Amount

    Final Investment Value

    ₹2,50,000

    Initial Investment Value

    ₹1,50,000

    Absolute Return

    66.66%

    • Annualised Returns – It is the amount by which the invested money has grown per annum.

    One can calculate this type of mutual fund return using the following formula –

    Annualized Return = ((1+ Absolute Return) ^ (365/ number of days)) – 1

    OR

    Annualized Return = ((1+ Absolute Return) ^ (365/ number of years)) – 1

    • Compound Annual Growth Rate – Compound Annual Growth Rate, abbreviated as CAGR, is the rate of return by which the investment should grow from the initial investment value to its maturity value.

    CAGR is computable using the following formula –

    Compound Annual Growth Rate = ((Final Value/ Initial Value) ^ (1/ number of years)) – 1

    Let us understand this with the help of an example –

    Mr Ram invested ₹10,000 in a mutual fund scheme, and the final value is ₹14,000 over 2 years.

    ₹14,000

    Initial Value

    CAGR

    Trailing Returns – Trailing returns are the type of mutual fund returns that show the performance of a mutual fund over a specific period.

    Individuals can calculate trailing returns can using this formula –

    Trailing Returns = (Current Net Asset Value / Net Asset Value at the beginning of the trailing period) ^ (1/ Trailing Period) – 1

    What Are the Key Benefits of Each Type of Mutual Fund Return?

    The table below shows the key benefits of different mutual fund returns in India.
