Bandhan Retirement Fund - Direct Plan
An open-ended retirement solution oriented scheme having a lock-in of 5 years or till retirement age (whichever is earlier)
What is a Retirement Fund?
Planning for retirement is like planting a tree; you nurture it over time so it can provide shade and security in your golden years. Retirement funds allow investors to save and grow their wealth over time, aiming to provide a steady income during retirement. Mutual fund retirement plans generate potential income through investments in equities, debt, and other instruments.
The main goal of a retirement fund is to provide a steady income post-retirement. Investors can withdraw a minimum of ₹200 monthly through a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP). However, the Bandhan Retirement Fund has a lock-in period of 5 years or until the investor reaches retirement age, making it less liquid.
While there are several retirement investment options available, mutual fund retirement plans allow investors to save and receive money periodically and potentially enable capital appreciation in the long term. Retirement funds aim to serve the dual purpose of investment and retirement planning.
The Bandhan Retirement Fund invests in equities, debt, and money market instruments, making it a higher-risk option. Investors can choose between SIP or lumpsum investments to work towards their financial goals.

Who Should Invest in Mutual Funds for Retirement?
Retirement-focused mutual funds aim for long-term capital appreciation and income generation. Since the Bandhan Retirement Fund invests partly in equities, it is subject to market volatility and is considered a higher-risk option.
Retirement funds are designed for potential long-term capital growth and income generation, making them ideal for investors focused on both equity and debt investments as part of their retirement planning.
With a 5-year lock-in or until retirement age, the Bandhan Retirement Fund is not a liquid option and is unsuitable for short-term investors.
