Mutual fund investment first time (28-10-2015)
A few points to consider while shortlisting Mutual Funds. Value Research Online provides a wealth of information on MFs.
- Expense Ratio of the fund (Direct Plans are ofcourse cheaper)
- Portfolio churn ratio of the fun
- Category of Fund to invest in (Standard ones include Micro/Small Cap, Mid Cap, Large & Midcap, Large Cap, Balanced, ELSS, Thematic (e.g. Pharma, FMCG etc), Debt Funds
- Underlying portfolio companies the fund has invested in
- If it is an old fund then maybe a 10 Year performance comparison and the longevity of the Fund Manager
If you want to manage funds from multiple Houses under a single window then Funds India and Fundsupermart offer the same, albeit only as a regular fund option. (in addition to standard brokerages like ICICI Direct)

My mistakes with the stock market (28-10-2015)
your point number 3 when to sell is the most difficult part of investing and to avoid taking any emotional decision, I have taken a decision to sell 5% of the holding when the price moves up by 5%.
This will be done 5 times and after that I will leave the stock and will take a call on the business potential of the shares,
