A 1.14% increase took HDFC Flexi Cap Fund Direct Growth's NAV to ₹2,152.47 on 9 October 2026. This marked a positive movement following the previous valuation session's decline.

The NAV is the value of one unit under the Direct Growth option. It differs from the Regular Plan and IDCW options, which maintain their own unit values and expense structures.

The scheme's trailing return table showed a one-year decline of 3.52%. Its three-year annualised return reached 14.68%, with the five-year CAGR slightly higher at 15.18%.

These historical returns demonstrate that performance across longer periods can differ materially from short-term movements. The three-year and five-year measures are annualised, whereas the one-year figure represents the total trailing return. 

The latest fund-size display stood at ₹113,606 crore, and the Direct Growth expense ratio was 0.77%. Minimum SIP and lump-sum investments were ₹100 each. 

Portfolio information showed ICICI Bank as the largest disclosed holding at 8.80%. Axis Bank followed at 6.11%, HDFC Bank at 6.03%, State Bank of India at 3.94% and Eternal at 3.46%.

Together, these five positions represented 28.34% of the disclosed portfolio. The banking weights show the role of financial-services companies within the displayed investments.

The risk metrics included beta of 0.83 and a Sharpe ratio of 0.70. Both represent historical statistical measures rather than estimates of future NAV behaviour.

Although the NAV increased on 9 October, that movement alone cannot identify which individual holding made the largest contribution to performance.
