Mid-Cap, Flexi-Cap, and Multi-Cap Mutual Funds: Comparative Returns and Trends
Mid-cap mutual funds have outperformed large-cap and flexi-cap funds over five and 10 years, delivering average annualised returns of 13.41% and 14.80%, respectively, according to ICRA Analytics. Flexi-cap funds offer portfolio flexibility but have generally lagged behind mid-cap and multi-cap funds, which require specific allocations across market caps. Multi-cap funds have outperformed flexi-cap funds over one, three, and five years. Despite recent market corrections, investor interest in these equity funds remains steady, highlighting the importance of aligning investments with risk tolerance and goals.
