Largecap mutual funds have outperformed smallcap funds in systematic investment plans (SIPs) over the past two years, providing investors with more stable returns.
Funds like HDFC Top 100 Fund, ICICI Prudential Bluechip Fund, and SBI Bluechip Fund have delivered consistent gains due to their exposure to established companies with strong fundamentals. Meanwhile, smallcap funds such as Nippon India Small Cap Fund and SBI Small Cap Fund have experienced higher volatility, leading to unpredictable returns.
Experts suggest that investors seeking stability should consider largecap funds, especially during uncertain market conditions. These funds offer a safer option for long-term wealth creation, whereas smallcaps may regain momentum in future bullish phases.
This trend emphasizes the importance of diversification and understanding market cycles. While smallcap funds have historically provided higher returns during market rallies, largecap funds currently offer a more reliable choice for SIP investors looking for steady growth.
