Investors often search for the best-performing mutual funds, but many shortlists rely heavily on recent returns or category-specific momentum. ETMutualFunds prepared a structured list of 10 funds across five equity categories using mean rolling returns, three year consistency, downside risk, outperformance, and asset size. The picks include SBI Equity Hybrid and Mirae Asset Aggressive Hybrid in hybrid funds, Canara Robeco Large Cap and Mirae Asset Large Cap in large caps, Parag Parikh Flexi Cap and HDFC Flexi Cap in flexi caps, Axis Midcap and Kotak Midcap in midcaps, and Axis Small Cap and SBI Small Cap in smallcaps.
