New debate growing over passive and active investing in equity market
May 8, 2018 10:35 AM

There is a growing new debate in mutual fund and personal finance advisory circles — is it time for Indian investors to go partially passive when it comes to investing in the equity market through mutual funds.

Anil Ghelani of DSP Blackrock and Kaustubh Belapurkar of Morningstar discusses the same in an interview to CNBC-TV18.
