Since Thematic-Consumption Mutual Funds are equity funds i.e. they invest in stocks of companies, you need to stay invested for at least 5 years.

Thematic Funds have to invest 80% of their assets in stocks tied to a particular theme. For instance, a Thematic Infrastructure Fund will invest in stocks related to the theme of infrastructure. This means they invest in companies connected to the development of infrastructure of our country like those operating in steel, cement, construction sectors.

Thematic-Consumption Mutual Funds invest in equities, so in a short term, they can be volatile. However, over a long-term, the risk comes down substantially.

Thematic-Consumption Funds have on an average delivered 14.35% p.a. returns in the last 5 years. Their 3 and 10 year annualized returns are 24.92% and 17.66% p.a.

Thematic Funds are some of the riskiest Mutual Funds. Although they are more diversified than Sectoral Funds, they still carry high risk. That's because their success depends on the theme playing out as expected. If it doesn't, then none of the stocks will perform, resulting in massive underperformance. These funds are suitable only for experienced investors, and even then, not more than 10% of the portfolio should be in these funds.
