I generally read FreeFinCal plumbline and check whether those funds suit me.
After that, I use various web sites like Morning Star, Value Research to see consistency of the funds, Alpha, Beta etc. and also underlying portfolio. If I am comfortable with all these aspects, I invest.
I have invested in active mutual funds mainly during 2004 to 2015. After that, mostly I have not made any major investments, since those funds are used for few Financial Goals which are due. Mostly I am now shifting funds from Active Equity MF(s) to Debt/FD based on my requirement of the goal.
I have not changed my funds much after 2015, so returns are reasonable. Also, I do not keep comparing fund performance much, if my XIRR returns are good i.e. Above some percentage, and as long as I am able to achieve my goals. I am not chasing returns but I am focusing on goals.
After 2012, I am mainly investing directly in stocks, for few goals which are still multiple years away.
Hope this helps.
