Top 7 Thematic Mutual Funds With Highest SIP Returns in 10 Years: Sometimes investment in themes such as manufacturing, real estate, pharma, or innovation attracts investors since they feel that these are likely to perform well in the long run. But, at the same time, they also feel risky in directly investing them through the stock market. For such investors, the thematic mutual fund is a category to invest in. As per Securities Exchange Board of India's (Sebi) instructions, thematic mutual funds need to have at least 80 per cent of their investments in stocks of a particular sector/theme. Such a high exposure to a particular theme makes thematic mutual funds ideal to get the maximum output from that. Returns are high when the theme is going through a purple patch, but it can be risky if the theme goes through a slump and takes time to recover.
