Its three-year CAGR was 14.09% on the same 5paisa snapshot.

The longer return profile showed a mixed picture across periods. The one-year trailing return was -4.32%, compared with a three-year annualised return of 14.09% and a five-year annualised return of 14.79%. These figures describe historical performance over different market cycles and should be read separately from the single-day NAV movement. The page also reported an alpha of 5.13, beta of 0.83, standard deviation of 3.91 and Sharpe ratio of 0.70.

Fund size was listed at ₹108,547 crore, with a Direct Growth expense ratio of 0.77%. Both the minimum SIP and minimum lump-sum investment were ₹100. The disclosed exit-load structure applied a 1% charge when units were redeemed or switched out within one year from allotment, with no exit load thereafter.

Portfolio disclosure showed ICICI Bank as the largest listed holding at 8.80%, followed by Axis Bank at 6.11%, HDFC Bank at 6.03%, State Bank of India at 3.94% and Eternal at 3.46%. Together, these five disclosed positions represented 28.34% of the portfolio. The mix illustrates that the largest individual positions remained concentrated in financial companies, although a flexi-cap mandate permits allocations to change across companies and market-cap categories.
