Mid cap funds attract investors who do not want to take extreme investment risk by investing in small cap funds but want to earn moderate returns from future large caps. Mid cap funds invest in stocks that invest primarily in mid companies, which show growth potential to be future large cap companies.

However, mid cap funds are also high risk-return investment proportions, for long term investment. Over the years these mid cap schemes have managed to deliver double digit returns. In 5 years the mid cap average category return was 12.46% higher than the S&P BSE 150 MidCap TRI benchmark return of 11.84% on annualised basis.
