Kotak Flexi Cap Fund Direct Growth recorded a NAV of ₹90.49 on 22 October 2026. The 5paisa primary card showed the NAV declining 0.31% over the valuation day, with both the amount and exact valuation date displayed on the live scheme page. 

The return profile varied materially by measurement period. The one-year trailing return stood at -8.21%, the three-year CAGR at 10.00%, and the five-year annualised return at 9.13%. Longer-period return figures are annualised and therefore should not be compared directly with a single-day NAV percentage movement. 

The scheme had a displayed fund size of ₹53,087 crore and a Direct Growth expense ratio of 0.66%. The minimum SIP and lump-sum amounts were both ₹100. As a flexi-cap fund, its mandate allows allocation across different market-cap segments instead of requiring a fixed large-, mid- or small-cap-only exposure. 

ICICI Bank was the largest disclosed position at 5.48%. Bharat Electronics followed at 5.34%, HDFC Bank at 5.27%, SBI at 4.30% and Eternal at 4.22%. Combined, these five positions represented 24.61% of the displayed portfolio. The latest risk statistics included alpha of 1.08, standard deviation of 4.43, beta of 0.95 and a Sharpe ratio of 0.39. 

NAV movements reflect the changing value of the securities and other assets in the portfolio after accounting for scheme liabilities. Historical returns, expense ratios and portfolio concentrations provide additional context, but none of these data points independently determine subsequent NAV performance.
