Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 1.77%, 11.14% and 11.01% respectively, and the scheme is tagged High Risk. Our view is that this is a mid-cap fund that has delivered steadier medium-term numbers than its recent 1-year stretch, so it suits investors who can accept swings in exchange for equity growth potential.<\/p>\n<p>The fund\u2019s 5-year result is reasonable, but the recent year has been much softer than the 3-year and 5-year track. The portfolio is spread across 82 holdings, yet the top positions still matter, so the fund may appeal more to investors who want mid-cap exposure with active stock selection rather than a narrowly concentrated style.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p

The 3-month return was better than the benchmark, which suggests a phase of recovery, yet the 1-year result remains subdued relative to the index.<\/p>\n<p>Over longer periods, the picture is more stable but still trails the benchmark. The 3-year and 5-year returns are both lower than NIFTY Mid Cap, which tells us that the fund has compounded at a slower pace than the broad mid-cap index over both the medium and longer horizons.<\/p>\n<p>The recent pattern does not fully reverse the longer-term story. In our view, the fund has shown the ability to participate in short rebounds, but the overall return path still reflects a softer compounding profile than the benchmark across 3 years and 5 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<section class=\"univest-mf-premium-cta\" style=\"margin:28px 0;padding:24px;border-radius:10px;border:1px solid #d8e3f0;background:#f7faff\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_you_BUY_or_HOLD_PGIM_India_Midcap\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD PGIM India Midcap?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A fund&#8217;s past returns alone don&#8217;t tell you whether you should buy it today or continue holding it.<\/p>\n<p>The right decision depends on factors such as your current allocation, purchase price, risk profile, investment horizon and the role this fund plays in your overall portfolio.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Already holding PGIM India Midcap?

Ltd. under SEBI Registered Investment Adviser registration INA000017639. The fund\u2019s 1-year return is far below the stronger peer figures in this set, so the recent stretch looks weak versus the better mid-cap outcomes available here. The longer-term picture is also softer: the 3-year and 5-year returns trail the peers with available history, which means the fund has not kept pace on compounding even though its short-term moves can improve at times.<\/p>\n<p>That split matters. The fund\u2019s recent rebound does not fully change the broader comparison, because peers with complete histories still show stronger medium- and long-term numbers. For investors, the main takeaway is that the fund looks less compelling on return consistency than several peers, even though it remains an active mid-cap option with a sizable, diversified lineup.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<div class=\"univest-peer-login-cta\" style=\"margin:20px 0;padding:16px 18px;border:1px solid #d8e3f0;border-radius:8px;background:#f7faff\">\n<p style=\"margin:0\"><strong>Want to know more?<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in\" style=\"font-weight:700;text-decoration:none\">Log in to Univest<\/a> for more mutual fund insights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Portfolio_where_your_money_goes\"><\/span>Portfolio: where your money goes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Holding<\/th>\n<th>Sector<\/th>\n<th>Weight<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>The Federal Bank Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>2.76%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Clearing Corporation of India Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>2.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bharti Hexacom Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Telecom<\/td>\n<td>2.35%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Aditya Birla Capital Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>2.34%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mankind Pharma Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>2.24%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Prestige Estates Projects Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Realty<\/td>\n<td>2.15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Uno Minda Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>2.13%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>AU Small Finance Bank Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>2.12%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Max Financial Services Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>1.88%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Retailing<\/td>\n<td>1.86%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 22.3% of the portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/pgim-india-midcap-fund-g-direct-plan\">PGIM India Midcap Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p>The largest holding is The Federal Bank Ltd. at 2.76%, which is meaningful but not dominant on its own. The weight then declines fairly gradually through the rest of the top 10, ending at 1.86% for FSN E-Commerce Ventures Ltd., so no single position appears overwhelming inside the visible set.<\/p>\n<p>With the top 10 holding about 22.3% and the full disclosed book spanning 82 holdings, the portfolio looks spread across many positions rather than concentrated in just a few names. That structure may reduce dependence on any one stock, although the actual influence of the larger names could still matter when mid-cap prices move sharply.<\/p>\n<p>Because the top positions sit in banking, finance, telecom, healthcare, realty and consumer-facing businesses, the fund may deliver returns that depend on how several different mid-cap themes behave rather than a single sector call. That broader spread can help balance risk, but it also means results may be uneven across market cycles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_should_invest\"><\/span>Who should invest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This fund suits investors who can tolerate High Risk and are comfortable with mid-cap volatility.

The main trade-off is accepting weaker recent and benchmark-relative performance in exchange for exposure to a diversified mid-cap portfolio that may still participate when the segment recovers.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tax_and_exit_load\"><\/span>Tax and exit load<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Holding period<\/th>\n<th>Tax rate<\/th>\n<th>Description<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Units held less than 1 year<\/td>\n<td>20%<\/td>\n<td>Short-term capital gains tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Units held more than 1 year<\/td>\n<td>12.5%<\/td>\n<td>Long-term capital gains tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Exit load: 0.50% on or before 90D, Nil after 90D.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>What is the current NAV of PGIM India Midcap Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>Its NAV is \u20b977.41 as of 10 Sep 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>The fund\u2019s returns are 1.77% for 1 year, 11.14% for 3 years and 11.01% for 5 years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does it compare with the benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It trails NIFTY Mid Cap over 1 year, 3 years and 5 years, although it has done better over 3 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does it compare with the peer funds listed here?<\/strong><br \/>Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are below the better figures shown by several peers, especially HSBC Midcap Fund Direct Growth Plan and ITI Mid Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is there a minimum SIP amount?<\/strong><br \/>Yes, the minimum SIP amount is \u20b91,000.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the main risk and portfolio features?<\/strong><br \/>The fund is tagged High Risk and has 82 disclosed holdings, with the top 10 accounting for approximately 22.3% of the portfolio.
