    • @Mool Shanker Sharma,
      You probably are not receiving your statement as under new SEBI regulation Asset Management companies are not required to send accorss quarterly/half yearly Account statements. They only need to send the statements in case any transaction is conducted during the said period. However, you can request DSP Mutual Fund to send accross the account statements whenever you desire.

      Just pick up your phone and place a call.Your account statement will be delivered whenever you need.

      OMF.

    i m interested in investment in Gold Mutual fund on monthly /one time investment suggest me a good one

    • Puja,

      You can go in for any Gold ETF like UTI, SBI Gets or Reliance Gold Exchange Traded Funds. These EFT investments are comparable to buying physical gold. Opt for montly and not lump sum investments as Gold Prices in India and Gold Rates in US have increased manifolds. Staggered monthly investments similar to GOLD SIP.

      OMF.
