VERDICT

Should I use MFCentral?

Access Denied — product page could not be fetched - mfcentral.com

Worth it. Buy if you're an Indian mutual fund investor who wants one free place to view, transact, and service every folio. Skip if you want phone support, or one app for stocks and funds together.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 20+ public sources; many snippets truncated and no numeric app ratings found, so confidence is medium.
