    New Delhi, May 1 -- Imagine paying your neighbourhood store, auto driver, domestic help using money parked not in a bank savings account, but in a mutual fund. Thanks to fintechs integrating mutual funds with UPI, this is now possible-offering not just convenience but significantly better returns. While bank savings accounts now yield as little as 2.7-2.75%, liquid mutual funds offer returns of 5-6%. That means your idle cash doesn't just sit-it grows, even as it remains instantly spendable.

PPFAS Flexicap is India's largest active fund at a whopping 1 lakh cr AUM! I first met them when they were just 2k cr. What makes them remarkable: 1) Minimum funds 2) Swiss army knife approach 3) Annual meets of unit holders I've been a happy investor for the past 5 yrs.
