The multi-cap fund scheme of the Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund seeks to produce long-term capital appreciation from a portfolio of equity and equity related instruments mostly concentrated on a few particular sectors.

The scheme mainly focused on investing in a few selected sectors, which comprised an average of 60.28 percent of its equity portfolio during the past three years. The top five sectors on which the fund focused include banks, auto, finance, cement, and petroleum products.

The utmost contributor to the scheme’s performance during the period under analysis was HDFC Bank. Reliance Industries, Bajaj Finance, Maruti Suzuki and IndusInd Bank are few other contributors to the fund.
