What is an equity mutual fund?

What is the ideal investment horizon for equity funds?
Most equity funds are best suited for a minimum horizon of 5 years, allowing market cycles to even out and compounding to work in your favour.
Are equity mutual funds taxed?
Gains on equity funds held over 1 year are taxed as long-term capital gains; gains on units held under 1 year are taxed as short-term capital gains, as per current Indian tax rules.
