What is the difference between a 'scheme' and a 'plan' in mutual fund terminology?
0% of students got this wrong
EXPLANATION
A 'scheme' refers to a specific fund with its own investment mandate and portfolio (e.g., HDFC Large Cap Fund). A 'plan' is a variant within the scheme — Regular Plan vs Direct Plan (cost structure) or Growth option vs IDCW option (payout structure). All plans within a scheme invest in the same underlying portfolio.
