How many types of mutual funds are there in India?
SEBI groups open-ended mutual funds into equity, debt, hybrid, solution-oriented and other schemes, each with its own categories. This page lists 38 categories that have at least five funds with a direct plan and a year of history, covering 1523 funds as of 2026.
Why are only some categories ranked?
Diversified equity funds in one category pick from the same pool of companies, so their returns are like for like and a ranking means something. Debt funds earn more mainly by taking more risk, hybrid funds hold different mixes, and index and sector funds each follow something different, so those are listed with their returns and no ranking.
Which category of mutual fund is best?
There is no best category. Equity funds suit money you will not need for seven years or more, debt funds suit shorter periods and stability, and hybrid funds sit between. The right mix depends on your goals and how much of a fall you can sit through.
This page is information, not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any fund. Returns are annualised, for the growth option, from NAVs published by AMFI. A ranking by past return says nothing certain about the future, and the right fund for you depends on your goals and the rest of your portfolio.
