SIP (systematic investment plan) is a way to invest in mutual funds where fund managers pool money from various investors and invest in the market, making a diversified portfolio. There are many types of mutual funds, like smallcap mutual funds, largecap mutual funds, midcap mutual funds, debt funds, flexicap funds, ELSS funds, international mutual funds, sectoral mutual funds, multicap mutual funds etc. Large and midcap mutual funds are one of the equity fund schemes that invest in a mix of largecap and midcap stocks. As per market watchdog Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), these funds are required to invest at least 35 per cent of their assets in largecap companies and midcap companies, each.
Since these funds seek a balance between wealth creation and risk management, they are popular among investors. They invest in both blue-chip companies (market cap of more than Rs 20,000 crore) and midcap companies (market cap of more than Rs 5,000 crore).
