What is a Multi Cap Fund?

Ever wish you could have a bit of everything in your investment portfolio? That's what Multi Cap funds offer—exposure to a mix of companies, from industry giants to emerging stars. This balance between relative stability and growth potential creates a well-rounded portfolio that may thrive in different market conditions. Let’s take a closer look at what multi cap funds are and how they work.

Multi cap funds invest in equity and equity-related instruments across companies of varying market capitalizations. These funds provide diversification by investing in small-cap, mid-cap, and large-cap companies, making them suitable for investors with different risk appetites. With a broad scope for investment opportunities, multi cap funds are a strong option for potential wealth creation.

According to SEBI regulations, multi cap funds must allocate at least 25% of their assets each to large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap stocks, making 75% of the allocation fixed. The remaining 25% can be flexibly invested based on the fund manager's strategy. For example:

• Large-cap focused multi cap funds primarily invest in large-cap stocks.

• Small/mid-cap focused multi cap funds primarily invest in small and mid-cap stocks, with at least 25% allocated to large-cap stocks.

  • Min Investment 1,000
  • Min SIP Amount 100
