Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 9.12%, 19.14% and 15.86%, respectively, and the scheme is in the High Risk category.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that this is a mid-cap equity fund with a meaningful growth record, but one that has also shown stretches of uneven short-term behaviour. The return profile looks better over 3 years and 5 years than over 1 year, which matters for investors who can stay invested through swings rather than judging it on a single recent period.<\/p>\n<div

fund has recovered better than its benchmark over the medium and longer periods, especially across 3 years and 5 years. That suggests the portfolio has been able to convert mid-cap market strength into returns more effectively than the index over those horizons.<\/p>\n<p>The recent picture is less uniform. The 1-month return was negative, even though it held up slightly better than the benchmark, while the 3-month return turned positive and stayed ahead of the index. That pattern points to normal mid-cap volatility rather than a smooth path.<\/p>\n<p>Across 1 year, the fund has also stayed well ahead of the benchmark. The key distinction is that the trailing 1-year number is more moderate than the stronger 3-year outcome, so recent gains have not matched the pace seen over the longer stretch. For investors, that means the fund has rewarded patience, but short-term swings remain a real feature.<\/p>\n<p>Viewed together, the 3-year and 5-year numbers suggest a fund that has compounded reasonably well through different market phases. The benchmark comparison is useful here: the fund has not merely participated in the category movement; it has exceeded the index on every displayed period. That does not remove risk, but it does show that the recent softness has not broken the broader trend.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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_ITI_Mid_Cap\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD ITI Mid Cap?<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 ITI Mid Cap?

Over 3 years and 5 years, it sits above the peers with available figures for Baroda BNP Paribas Mid Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan, while HSBC Midcap Fund Direct Growth Plan has delivered higher returns across the displayed horizons.<\/p>\n<p>The shorter-term and longer-term peer views do not tell the same story. On the recent number, the fund is not leading the peer set, yet its 3-year and 5-year figures are still solid and well above the benchmark. That makes the fund look more like a steady mid-cap compounder than a recent standout, with the gap to the strongest peer most visible in the last 12 months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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 Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>3.05%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Solar Industries India Limited<\/td>\n<td>Chemicals<\/td>\n<td>2.56%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>One 97 Communications Limited<\/td>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>2.33%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fortis Healthcare Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>1.98%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ather Energy Limited<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Equities<\/td>\n<td>1.86%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Radico Khaitan Limited<\/td>\n<td>Alcohol<\/td>\n<td>1.76%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TVS Motor Company Limited<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>1.65%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>IDFC First Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.61%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>AU Small Finance Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.59%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Indusind Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.59%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 19.98% of the portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/iti-mid-cap-fund-g-direct-plan\">ITI Mid Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p>The largest position, The Federal Bank Limited, is 3.05%, so no single stock dominates the disclosed holding list. The tenth holding is 1.59%, which shows that the weights taper, but not sharply, from the top position to the edge of the visible list.<\/p>\n<p>This pattern suggests a portfolio that may spread influence across a fairly long tail rather than relying on just a handful of positions. The top 10 add up to 19.98%, and the fund discloses 88 holdings in total, so the visible leaders appear important without forming a highly concentrated core.<\/p>\n<p>That balance can be useful in a mid-cap fund because it may reduce dependence on one or two names, while still allowing the stronger ideas to matter. It also means investors should expect the portfolio to participate across several sectors, with banks appearing repeatedly in the disclosed holdings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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 is suited to investors who are comfortable with High Risk equity exposure and can tolerate sharp swings in the short run.

The main trade-off is straightforward: the portfolio has the potential to compound well over time, but the journey is likely to be uneven and benchmark-beating periods may not arrive every quarter.<\/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 units sold on or before 3 months; NIL after 3 months.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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 ITI Mid Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The NAV is \u20b925.2457 as of 15 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>The fund\u2019s 1-year return is 9.12%, its 3-year return is 19.14%, and its 5-year return is 15.86%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has the fund performed versus its benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It has stayed ahead of the Nifty Mid Cap benchmark across the displayed 1-month, 3-month, 1-year, 3-year and 5-year periods.
