3 Best Equity Large Cap Funds To Invest In 2021 For 5 Years

|

Amidst the BSE's overall market cap standing at a record high, if you are a new investor with a long term financial goal of 5 to 10 years, we recommend investing in Large Cap Funds, as this equity category has performed well with an average return of around 55% in one year and a year to date (YTD) return of approximately 29%. Starting a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) can be a good bet for new investors or investors with a risk-averse appetite who have a long term financial goal of at least 5 years to generate wealth over a long period without subjecting themselves to high risk and volatility as compared to mid-cap and small-cap funds.

 

Investors can expect volatility in the near term, as well as dramatic market declines; as a consequence, we recommend staying invested in the long-term potential of equity with a diversification with best performing Balanced Advantage Funds through a systematic investment plan, which is an excellent alternative for all types of investors. For those who want relative safety along with growth on their portfolio, here we have picked up the 3 best large-cap funds based on the rating of "No 1" given by CRISIL as of 30th June 2021.
