Benefits of SIP in Gold Funds
The gold funds provide investment into a broader market. Here are some merits of investing in gold funds or gold ETFs:
- High Liquidity: It means you can easily buy and sell these funds in comparison to real gold. This flexibility to redeem investments works as an emergency fund in the hour of need. You can easily sell your units of gold funds directly through the AMC of your scheme.
- Safe Investment: These funds are protected by the SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India). It makes them the most trusted and safest investment option in mutual funds.
- Cost-efficient: Gold funds have cheaper transaction and maintenance costs. If you regularly do SIP in gold Mutual Funds, you invest Rs.500, which is more affordable than the actual gold. This makes them pocket-friendly and increases total returns on your gold investments.
- Convenient to Manage: Unlike physical gold, which needs storage space and security, gold funds are secured digitally through a Demat account. Their simple and affordable nature makes gold ETFs the best alternative to regular equity funds.
List of 3 Best Gold Mutual Funds
Let’s have a closer look at the best gold funds to start your SIP:
- SBI Gold Fund: After being launched on 30th September 2011, SBI Gold Fund is amongst the oldest schemes in the domestic category. It holds an impressive AUM (Asset Under Management) at Rs.2, 025 Crores as of 30 August 2024. In addition, the minimum amount to start a SIP in it is Rs.5000.
- HDFC Gold Fund: This scheme was introduced on 5th November 2011, with an outstanding AUM of Rs.2290 Crores. Moreover, you can add HDFC Gold Fund to your portfolio with a SIP at just Rs.100. It would be a smart choice as it has given a 31.45% annualized return in 1 year. This makes it an affordable and valuable addition to a stable investment portfolio.
- ICICI Prudential Gold Savings FOF: The ICICI Prudential Gold Savings FOF invests in Gold ETFs and gold-related assets. Being launched on 1st October 2011, it offers SIP investments at just Rs.100. This affordability makes it accessible to a wide range of investors.

What is the Disadvantage of Gold Mutual Funds?
Here are some limitations to know before investing in gold funds:
Gold Funds Vs Gold ETF: The expense ratio of gold ETFs is lower making it easy to buy and sell as compared to gold funds. Investing in gold funds is similar to buying gold itself.
Market Risk: Your returns are affected by the changing prices of gold. For example, a change in the US dollar value influences the gold price, thereby affecting the returns of gold mutual funds.
Low Returns than Equity Funds: Gold funds give lower returns than equity funds. As these are volatile in nature, there are better chances to make higher returns from other Mutual Funds.
To sum up, gold mutual funds offer a safe and secure way towards a diverse portfolio.
