Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The tussle between SBI and Aditya Birla continues for the fifth spot. At the bottom of the rung, Axis seems to have gotten a lead over the other two \u2013 Franklin and Motilal Oswal where again it\u2019s one or the other each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the returns, only SBI, Aditya Birla, ICICI and Axis beat the benchmark slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s not much to report in terms of expense ratio or the number of stocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Market Cap Allocation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There is not much activity to report in this zone since anything less than 2-odd{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} barely counts. The one thing I would want to mention here is to remember that the almost 30{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} foreign equity allocation in Parag Parikh Flexi Cap comes from 4 US stocks alone. Plus, while they are opening for fresh inflows it is possible that this allocation may keep going down as they will not be able to invest more in foreign equity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Most fund managers seemed happy to stay put in this torridly volatile month. Hence, not that much of a change you get to see, apart from some minor juggles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within Aditya Birla, metals and mining has edged out Telecom organically thanks largely to higher valuations with the fear of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
