What is Large Cap Mutual Fund?

As the name suggests, large cap mutual funds invest mainly in large companies that are among the top 100 by market value. These companies are well-established and stable, making these funds safer compared to mid or small-cap funds. SEBI requires that at least 80% of the fund's investment go into these large companies.

Some well-known large cap companies include Reliance, TCS and Nestle. These funds are good for long-term investments because of their stability. If you are looking for safe and reliable growth, large cap mutual funds could be a good option for you.

  • The average returns of good large cap mutual funds range between 12-15% per annum.
  • The top performing large cap mutual funds have moderate risk, giving more stable returns vs small caps.
  • The best recommended time for minimum investment is 5+ years.

Factors to Consider Before Investing in Large Cap Mutual Funds

Before you invest in large cap mutual funds, here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Moderate Returns than Small Caps

    Large-cap funds tend to offer stable returns, but they usually do not provide the high returns you might see with small-cap or mid-cap funds. These funds invest in well-established companies, so the growth is steady but not explosive.
  • Market Fluctuations

    Even though large-cap funds are considered safer, they can still go up and down with market changes. They carry some risk, just like any equity-based investment.
  • Best for Long-Term

    These funds typically perform better when held for a longer time. If you are looking for short-term gains, large mutual cap funds may not be the best fit. They’re more suitable for those who are willing to invest for several years.
