I invest Rs 7,500 every month via the SIP route. I now want to invest an additional Rs 2,000 in a growth fund. Please suggest some aggressive funds. My investment horizon is of 15-20 years.

An investor seeking to supplement his otherwise diversified portfolio with aggressive bets can do it in a measured way by getting into the mid- and small-cap category. A couple of good diversified funds from this category are ICICI Prudential Discovery and IDFC Premier Equity. If you’re willing to take riskier bets for higher returns, which may not work on occasions, then you can invest in DSP BlackRock Microcap or SBI Magnum Emerging Business. These are the funds worth betting on.
