  1. The returns of Post office MIS are fixed, but it is 100% guaranteed. Mutual funds are able to give you high returns over a period of time as compared to post office. But remember, when market crashes, sometimes mutual funds are not able to give any dividend / profit, as it happened in 2008.

    So, if you’re looking for “regular” monthly income without any fail, go for post office MIS.
    And if you can take little stock-market risk, digest volatility, & have other source of income also, go for mutual funds MIP.

    You can also divide your investments in these 2 as per your target & risk-appetite.
