You are right, that FD are one of the good asset class to earn interest from Banks. But they invite high tax. Plus they are illiquid for the defined term of FD and charge you a penalty if broken before the term completes. While Debt Mutual Funds are taxed at lower income tax rate and you can withdraw them anytime without any penalty. And, they provide higher returns in most cases. Additionally, equity based mutual funds yield much higher returns than a FD.

Mutual Funds give very good returns in long term. God willing you will long enough to see and enjoy those returns. And there is your family which will benefit from it as well.

Interest on FD is added to your income and taxed at normal tax rates. Hence, you may have to pay tax at 30% and above if your income falls in highest income slab. While short term tax on MF is at 20% and long term (more than 1 year holding period) tax is at 12.5%.
