FAQs On Mid-Cap Mutual Fund

Mid-cap funds are equity-oriented funds and are risky. However, the risk profile lies between large-cap funds and small-cap funds. Midcap funds are riskier than large-cap funds but less risky when compared to small-cap funds.

This choice depends on your investment ability, horizon and strategy. SIPs are good for a disciplined investing approach when you can save regularly to create a corpus. On the other hand, lump sum investing is suitable if you have surplus funds which you want to invest once. Moreover, if you can time the market, lump sum investment is better else you should choose SIPs.

Mid-cap funds can be more volatile in the short term than large-cap funds. However, in the long run, the potential of mid-cap funds to provide good returns is higher than that of large-cap funds.

The expense ratio is the amount charged by your fund house as administrative cost for your investment transaction. A lower expense ratio means that your effective returns are higher, which makes checking the expense ratio important before investing.

Exit load is the charge applied upon redemption of your mid-cap fund before maturity or expiry of the specified term. It varies from fund to fund and is a percentage of the NAV (Net Asset Value) of the fund.
