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

This is personally one of my favourite fund categories. I have often been caught saying like an ad salesperson \u2013 stability of large cap, growth potential of mid caps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, when you look at the AUMs, you will see it\u2019s not much of a favourite of investors apart from Mirae. In fact, it really is Mirae Emerging Bluechip which first got the AMC much popularity. Even now investors with high value SIP refuse to let go of it, concentration risk in the portfolio be damned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to performance, it\u2019s been a dismal month with only Canara Robeco, Kotak and Sundaram faring better than the index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the AUM, Aditya Birla Sun Life has taken a leap back to go behind SBI and Axis and nestle itself in the seventh spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

The biggest market cap change can be seen in HDFC with a 6.57{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} reduction in Large Cap and 7.63{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} increase in Mid Cap. Considering it was a bit in the opposite direction last month, it looks like with the merging of the other funds they are having a Goldilocks moment \u2013 an increase, a decrease here till the time it feels just right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Top 5 sectors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There is very little in terms of sector shift this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Mirae, finance has edged out Insurance but since the numbers are so close it seems to be more of an organic shift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within Canara Robeco, auto ancilliaries is edged out by Chemicals although within auto ancilliaries it\u2019s just a slight allocation reduction in the same 3 stocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
