The five-year figure was therefore 0.80 percentage points above the three-year CAGR. These figures describe historical performance and do not indicate future returns.

Assets under management stood at approximately ₹113,606 crore. The Direct Growth plan carried an expense ratio of 0.77%, and the displayed minimum investment amounts were ₹100 for both SIPs and lump-sum purchases.

Portfolio disclosure showed a sizeable allocation to banking stocks. ICICI Bank accounted for 9.19%, making it the largest displayed position, followed by Axis Bank at 6.19%, HDFC Bank at 5.71%, State Bank of India at 4.16% and Eternal at 3.39%.

The latest risk statistics displayed an alpha of 5.13, standard deviation of 3.91, beta of 0.83 and Sharpe ratio of 0.70. These measures relate to historical portfolio behaviour and should be read alongside the scheme's flexi-cap mandate, under which allocations can move across large-, mid- and small-cap companies.

The 1.13% one-day NAV rise is a single valuation-day observation and should be viewed separately from the fund's longer-term return record and portfolio composition.
