Best Mid Cap Fund Mutual Funds

Mid Cap funds hold at least 65% in companies ranked 101–250 by market capitalisation. Historically they have delivered higher long-run returns than large caps, with noticeably deeper drawdowns along the way.

We currently track 38 direct-plan Mid Cap Fund schemes from 34 fund houses with a median 5-year CAGR of 13.3%. Every figure below is calculated from official daily NAV history and refreshed each day. Use the column headers to re-rank the table by any period — the best 1-year performer is often not the best over 5 or 10 years, which is exactly why we default to the longer horizon.

Mid Cap Fund funds — frequently asked questions

Which Mid Cap Fund fund has the highest 5-year CAGR?

Motilal Oswal Midcap Fund currently leads the Mid Cap Fund category with a 5-year CAGR of 19.2%. Past returns describe what already happened and do not predict future performance — treat the ranking as a starting point for research, not a recommendation.

What is a good 5-year return for a Mid Cap Fund fund?

Across the 38 Mid Cap Fund schemes we track, the median 5-year CAGR is 13.3%. Comparing a fund against that median, rather than against the category's single best performer, is a more realistic benchmark.

How is CAGR calculated on this page?

CAGR is the compound annual growth rate between the NAV on the horizon start date and the latest NAV, using growth-plan NAVs published by the AMCs. Where a scheme's NAV history has a gap or a re-denomination, we adjust for it rather than report a distorted figure. Expense ratios are already reflected in NAV; exit loads and taxes are not.

Why does this list only show direct plans?

Direct plans have no distributor commission, so their expense ratio is lower and their NAV growth is higher than the regular plan of the same scheme. Showing both would list every fund twice, so we rank direct plans only.
