    What's better between Index Fund and index ETF?

    But if I am willing to invest with a perspective of 10 years or even more, even then should I go with ETFs?

    I am sure you are focusing on the statement

    However, now large cap funds means they can only invest in BSE100 and so the opportunity to outperformance is very low.

    Still, I think you should go with ETF along with a midcap fund to add the outperformance that you want in your portfolio.

    What about gold? What's better among a fund, an etf or Sovereign Gold bonds?

    When investing in gold, gold etf is better choice because of the available liquidity to cash out as and when you want to.
