4 Best Performing Schemes From SBI, Axis, ICICI & HDFC Mutual Funds

If we analyse the below, we see that most of the funds are from the small cap space. That apart the traditional largecap funds have not made it to the list and funds that are industry specific or contra funds have made it. It's important to remember that small and midcap funds tend to perform much better than largecap peers when the markets are buoyant. However, they can also inflict serious losses when the markets crash. In short, they are extremely volatile, which makes investing in these funds a little risky. If you cannot stomach risk, these mutual fund schemes are not for you.

To sum up, mutual funds have performed well over the last few years and one remains unsure whether the outlandish returns can continue. The best practice would be to invest money through the SIP route. Apart from this, best returns can be had when one invests money for the long-term.
