Here s a monthly update on our recommended list of conservative hybrid funds. The good news is that there is no change in the list in March. If you are looking for a conservative fund with a little exposure to equity for better returns, you can choose a good conservative hybrid fund. In the last one year, these schemes have offered 16.98% returns. These schemes mostly invest in debt instruments and a small part of their corpus in stocks. These schemes invest 75-90 per cent of the corpus in debt instruments and 10-25 per cent of the corpus in equity or stocks. The small equity exposure helps these schemes to deliver marginally higher returns than pure debt schemes. However, the exposure to equity also makes them riskier.
