This comprehensive guide reveals the ideal number of mutual funds for different portfolio sizes, investment goals, and experience levels. Learn why "diworsification" hurts returns, how to audit your current holdings, the difference between diversification and redundancy, and practical frameworks for building a focused portfolio. Whether you're just starting with ₹5,000/month or managing a ₹50 lakh portfolio, discover the sweet spot between too few and too many funds, typically 4-8 funds for most investors.
