Motilal Oswal Large & Midcap Fund

Motilal Oswal Large & Midcap Fund is an open-ended equity mutual fund that invests in both large-cap and mid-cap companies, offering investors a balance of stability and high-growth opportunities.
The scheme follows the Q-G-L-P (Quality–Growth–Longevity–Price) investing philosophy of Motilal Oswal AMC and aims to generate medium to long-term capital appreciation.

This fund is suitable for investors aiming to create long-term wealth through a diversified equity portfolio while managing volatility with exposure to well-established large-cap companies.

What is a Large & Mid Cap Fund?

A Large & Mid Cap Fund is a SEBI-defined equity mutual fund category that must mandatorily invest in:

  • At least 35% in large-cap companies
  • At least 35% in mid-cap companies
  • Remaining allocation (up to 30%) can be in small caps, debt, money market instruments, REITs/InvITs, etc.

As per SEBI’s market-cap classification, large caps represent the top 100 companies in India by full market capitalization, while mid caps represent 101 to 250. AMFI updates this list every six months, and the fund is required to rebalance within one month of the update.
