Top 7 ETFs With Highest Returns in 1 Year: Equity mutual funds may have their entire portfolio filled with stocks, but they can't be bought and sold like stocks in a share market. But exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are different. This is the only mutual fund category where funds can be traded in a stock market. Investors need a demat account to trade them. The price of an ETF's net asset value (NAV) fluctuates throughout a market session. Since most ETFs track an index, they are passive funds and often come up with extremely low expense ratios. However, there are passive ETFs also which aim to outperform an index or an underlying asset. An index may also track fixed income assets such as bonds, commodities such as the price of gold and silver, etc. Here, we take you through the top 7 ETFs with the highest return (CAGR) in 1 year. Also know the corpus created by each of these ETFs on a one-time (lum sum) investment of Rs 299,999.
