What is goal-based mutual fund investing?

Goal-based investing means linking every investment to a specific financial goal — such as retirement, children's education, or buying a home. Instead of investing randomly, you create a structured plan with a target amount, time horizon, and suitable mutual fund portfolio for each goal. This approach brings discipline and clarity to your investments.
