Best Answer

Usually mutual funds grant dividends regularly say once a year or once every 6 months. Whenever a fund house is making good profits using the investors investment, they declare a dividend to pay back the investor a share of the profit that is due to him. In certain cases, they might pay dividends to attract more investors or in some cases, just to clear off some money from the total asset under management to ensure that the portfolio is managable.
