Top 7 Index Mutual Funds in 10 Years: Rs 2 lakh investment in top fund has become Rs 9.64 lakh

Top 7 Index Mutual Funds in 10 Years: Index funds represent one of the most stable categories of mutual funds that follow a particular index. The fund manager has the same stocks in the fund's portfolio as in the index it follows. A fund may follow the Nifty or the BSE index. E.g. If it is a Nifty 50 index fund, it will invest in the same stocks in the same proportions as stocks in the Nifty 50 index. If some companies slip from the Nifty 50 and the new companies replace them, the fund manager also changes the combination of stocks in the fund he is running. 
Index funds in the long run may be stable if they follow the leading indices, such as Nifty 50 as leading indices have large-cap financially stable companies.
