Canara Robeco Small Cap Fund Direct Growth closed at an NAV of ₹46.37 on 8 September 2026, up 0.06% for the day. The movement was small, while the same dated performance set showed a one-year return of 9.62%. 

The three-year annualised return stood at 12.89%. Extending the period to five years raised the annualised figure to 15.64%, a difference of 2.75 percentage points. The five-year number was also 6.02 percentage points above the one-year return, showing a wider separation between the shortest and longest periods than between three and five years. 

TREPS accounted for 2.88% of the disclosed portfolio. Torrent Pharmaceuticals and Amber Enterprises each held a 2.49% weight, followed by RBL Bank at 2.44% and TBO Tek at 2.28%. These five entries combined to 12.58%. Among the four named stocks, the total was 9.70%, with no individual equity position above 2.49% in that group. 

The fund had assets of ₹14,231 crore and a Direct Growth expense ratio of 0.68%. Its minimum SIP was ₹1,000, while the minimum lump-sum investment was ₹5,000. The lump-sum threshold was therefore five times the SIP minimum. A 1% exit load applied to redemptions within one year, with no exit load after that point. 

Risk readings included an alpha of -0.18, beta of 0.80 and standard deviation of 5.17. The Sharpe ratio was 0.53. On the requested date, the NAV gain was only 0.06%, leaving the longer return periods, portfolio concentration and minimum-investment structure as more substantial numerical features of the scheme update.
