Focused Mutual Funds
A maximum of 30 stocks, at least 65% in equity.
Concentration by design. Every holding matters, so the fund rises and falls on a handful of decisions — which means the gap between a good and a bad focused fund is far wider than in a diversified one.
Who it suits. Investors who want a manager's highest-conviction ideas and can accept being wrong in a concentrated way. Hold for 7 years or more.

Point-to-point CAGR from AMFI NAV history, Direct plans only, computed to 10 Nov 2026 with the same engine the fund pages use, so a fund's number here matches its own page. Ordered by five-year return so the list has a shape, not because the order is a judgement. Past returns do not predict future ones — a fund near the top is usually there because its style suited the last five years, and styles take turns.

Questions people ask
What is a Focused fund?
A maximum of 30 stocks, at least 65% in equity. Concentration by design. Every holding matters, so the fund rises and falls on a handful of decisions — which means the gap between a good and a bad focused fund is far wider than in a diversified one.
Who should invest in Focused funds?
Investors who want a manager's highest-conviction ideas and can accept being wrong in a concentrated way. A sensible holding period is 7 years or more.
How is this list ordered?
By five-year CAGR computed from AMFI's published NAV history, within one plan type. It is a sort, not a verdict — a fund near the top is there because its style suited the last five years, which is not a promise about the next five.
Should I choose the Direct or Regular plan?
A Direct plan holds exactly the same portfolio without the distributor commission, so its expense ratio is lower — commonly 0.5% to 1.2% a year — and it compounds ahead of the Regular plan for ever. Choose Regular only if you want an intermediary's advice and are content to pay for it annually.
