Questions
How many schemes does LIC Mutual Fund have?
This page lists 34 LIC schemes: every open-ended fund of the house with a direct plan and at least a year of history, of which 10 are diversified equity funds. Exchange traded funds and newer funds are not included.
Which LIC mutual fund has given the highest return?
Over the five years to 09 Oct 2026, LIC MF Infrastructure Fund returned the most among LIC funds: 20.5% a year in its direct plan. Funds in different categories carry different risk, so this is not a like-for-like comparison, and past returns do not tell you which fund will lead next.
How are LIC funds ranked here?
Each diversified equity fund is ranked against the funds of its own category, by the annualised return of its direct plan. Debt, hybrid, index and sector funds are listed with their returns and are not ranked, because returns across them are not like for like.
This page is information, not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any fund. Returns are annualised, for the growth option, from NAVs published by AMFI. A ranking by past return says nothing certain about the future, and the right fund for you depends on your goals and the rest of your portfolio.
