Mutual funds are a popular way to invest in the stock market, especially for those who don’t have deep market knowledge or fear making mistakes while picking stocks.
There are many types of mutual funds, but if you are unsure about which sector to choose, flexi-cap funds can be a smart choice.
In the past three years, flexi-cap funds have given an average annual return (CAGR) of around 16%, and some funds have nearly doubled investors’ money.
Unlike sector-based funds, flexi-cap funds invest across large, medium, and small companies, giving them balance and growth potential.
According to AMFI data, flexi-cap funds received the highest investment of ₹7,679 crore in August 2025, showing strong investor confidence.
Let’s look at three top-performing flexi-cap funds from the past three years.
