Its 1-year return is 4.89%, while the 3-year and 5-year returns are both 0 because the fund has not built a long enough performance history for those periods.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme sits in the High Risk bucket. Our view is that it is more suitable for investors who can tolerate sharp swings and want a large-and-mid-cap equity fund that has already started to build a diversified portfolio, but whose live record is still short enough that conclusions should stay measured.<\/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 class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/iti-large-and-mid-cap-fund-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Quick_facts\" title=\"Quick facts\">Quick facts<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/iti-large-and-mid-cap-fund-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Performance\" title=\"Performance\">Performance<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/iti-large-and-mid-cap-fund-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Should_you_BUY_or_HOLD_ITI_Large_Mid_Cap\" title=\"Should you BUY or HOLD ITI Large &#038;

That matters for interpretation: the fund has not needed a strong market backdrop to stay positive in the shorter windows.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-month return of 0.94% and the 3-month return of 4.11% suggest a short stretch of steadier behaviour after earlier weakness in the wider path. The 1-year figure of 4.89% also indicates that the fund has held up better than the benchmark over the latest full-year window, even though the absolute gain is still fairly restrained for an equity scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Because the fund launched in September 2024, the 3-year and 5-year figures are not available yet. That makes the live short-term record the main evidence base, and our view is that the current picture is still one of an early-stage equity fund rather than a proven full-cycle compounder.<\/p>\n<p>For now, the key read-through is that the fund has been ahead of the benchmark in each available comparison window, but the case for it rests more on relative resilience than on a long compounding record.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 18 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_Large_Mid_Cap\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD ITI Large &#038; 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 Large &#038; Mid Cap?

On the longer horizons, the gap is also visible where data exists: peers have 3-year returns from 14.5% to 22.41% and 5-year returns from 12.17% to 18.76%, whereas this fund does not yet have comparable long-period figures.<\/p>\n<p>That mix tells two different stories. In the near term, the fund has lagged the more established peer outcomes, even though it has still beaten its benchmark. Over the longer windows, the comparison is not yet complete for this fund, so the peer set mainly highlights what a fuller track record can look like rather than proving a durable conclusion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 18 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>ICICI Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>2.37%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Indusind Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>2.21%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Larsen &amp; Toubro Limited<\/td>\n<td>Infrastructure<\/td>\n<td>1.98%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TVS Motor Company Limited<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>1.97%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Divi&#8217;S Laboratories Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>1.91%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>State Bank of India<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.9%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>LG Electronics India Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Equities<\/td>\n<td>1.84%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>1.81%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.68%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Axis Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.63%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest holding is ICICI Bank Limited at 2.37%, which is a relatively modest single-position weight for an equity fund. The tenth holding, Axis Bank Limited, is 1.63%, so the decline from the first to the tenth position is fairly gradual rather than steep.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 holdings together account for approximately 19.3% of the portfolio, which suggests that the fund is not built around a handful of very large bets. Instead, the disclosed list points to a wider spread across 90 holdings, so the remaining positions may still have a meaningful influence on overall outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>That structure may matter for volatility and return pattern. Banks appear several times near the top, along with infrastructure, healthcare and automobiles, but no single position dominates the sheet. Our view is that this kind of setup can leave performance dependent on a broad set of holdings rather than a few oversized names, which may make the fund feel more balanced even within a High Risk equity category.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/iti-large-mid-cap-fund-g-direct-plan\">ITI Large &amp; Mid Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 18 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 equity exposure and are comfortable with a short track record.

For investors who can accept High Risk equity exposure and do not need a long performance history yet, it is a fund to watch with measured expectations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"univest-posted-at\" style=\"font-size:14px;color:#666;margin:20px 0 8px\">Published on 21 September 2026 at 11:04 AM IST<\/p>\n<section class=\"univest-login-cta\" style=\"margin:28px 0;padding:24px;border-radius:10px;background:#eef5ff;border:1px solid #cddff7;text-align:center\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Explore_mutual_funds_with_Univest\"><\/span>Explore mutual funds with Univest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Review mutual fund data, compare performance and explore fund insights on Univest.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in\" style=\"display:inline-block;padding:11px 20px;border-radius:6px;background:#1f4e79;color:#fff !important;text-decoration:none;font-weight:700\">Explore Univest<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"univest-disclaimer\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RIA_disclosure\"><\/span>RIA disclosure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Mutual fund investments are subject to market risks.
