HDFC Mid Cap Fund Direct Growth ended 13 October 2026 at a NAV of ₹221.29, up 0.91% over the valuation day. The scheme's three-year CAGR stood at 15.08%. Its investment mandate focuses predominantly on mid-cap companies, placing the fund within the equity mid-cap category rather than a broad all-cap strategy.

The return profile showed a one-year trailing return of 0.90%, compared with annualised gains of 15.08% over three years and 16.55% over five years. These time periods capture different market environments and are historical measurements rather than estimates of subsequent performance. Fund size was reported at ₹101,856 crore, and the Direct Growth expense ratio was 0.76%. The minimum SIP and lump-sum investments were ₹100 each.

Liquidity exposure represented a notable part of the displayed allocation. TREPS accounted for 8.37%, making it the largest overall disclosed entry, but it is not an equity stock. Federal Bank was the largest listed equity position at 3.98%, followed by AU Small Finance Bank at 3.94%, Max Financial at 3.52% and Ipca Laboratories at 3.43%. These four listed positions together accounted for 14.87% of the displayed portfolio.

The latest risk statistics showed standard deviation of 4.66, beta of 0.85, alpha of 2.49 and a Sharpe ratio of 0.65. The disclosed exit-load schedule applied a 1% charge when units were redeemed or switched out within one year from allotment and nil thereafter. Both the risk statistics and holdings are portfolio snapshots that can change independently of the daily NAV.
