How to read this

  • Leaders changeThe fund at the top over the last five years is rarely at the top over the next five. Funds that stay in the upper half across all three periods tell you more than the one in first place.
  • The index fund is the barOf the 27 funds with a five year record, 24 returned more than an index fund tracking the Nifty 50.
  • The wider pictureSee how many funds beat the index in every category.
  • These are direct plansThe regular plan of each fund returns less, by the commission it pays. Check which plan you hold before you compare.

Questions

Which large cap fund has given the highest return?

Over the five years to 09 Oct 2026, Nippon India Large Cap Fund returned the most among large cap funds: 11.4% a year in its direct plan. The middle fund in the category returned 7.9%. Past returns do not tell you which fund will lead next.

How are large cap funds ranked here?

By annualised return, using the growth option of each fund's direct plan, over 1, 3 and 5 years. Using direct plans keeps sales commissions out of the comparison. NAVs come from AMFI and are refreshed every day.

Should I pick the top-ranked large cap fund?

Not on rank alone. Rankings change, and the right fund depends on your goals, how long you are investing for and what else you hold. Use the table to see how a fund has done against its peers and an index fund, then decide with advice that knows your situation.

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.
