With a CAGR of around 14.6% in the last 5 years, Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund has managed to outperform the benchmark S&P BSE 500 \u2013 TRI by around one percentage point. An investment of Rs 10,000 in Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund made 5 years back would now be worth Rs 19,729, as against a valuation of Rs 18,562 for the simultaneous investment in the broader market index. The superior stock-picking ability has driven the performance of the fund, thus helping it find a spot among top category performers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holding in (%) as of July 31, 2023
(Source: ACE MF) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of July 31, 2023, Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund held 61 stocks in the portfolio. The top 10 stock holdings in the portfolio accounted for nearly 43.1% of the total assets. Popular large-cap names like HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Reliance Industries, Infosys, and L&T appear in the list of its top portfolio holdings. Most of these stocks have been a part of the fund’s core holding for multi years now. The fund’s portfolio turnover has ranged between 25-35% in the last one year, signifying low churning in the portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the last two years, Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund has benefited immensely from its holding in ICICI Bank, Polycab India, L&T, ABB India, Max Healthcare Institute, SBI, Cholamandalam Investment & Finance Company, and Axis Bank which turned out to be major contributors to its returns. However, its exposure to certain stocks such as Infosys, Max Financial Services, Gujarat Gas, and Atul, eroded some of its gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the fund’s portfolio is biased towards cyclicals, it holds substantial exposure to sensitive and defensive sectors as well. Around on third of the fund’s portfolio is concentrated in the Banking and Finance sector, followed by Engineering, Consumption, Infotech, and Auto & Auto Ancillaries that collectively account for another 34.8% of its assets. It also has substantial exposure in Petroleum, Cement, Pharma, Telecom, Chemicals, and Healthcare having an allocation in the range of around 2% to 5% of its assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund suitable for my investment goals and risk tolerance?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund holds a flexible mandate to invest across market caps without any upper or lower limit and accordingly maintains a well-diversified portfolio of quality stocks with a long-term view. Despite being an aggressive growth-oriented fund, the fund manager avoids taking momentum bets and focuses on quality stocks with solid growth potential in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Canara Robeco Mutual Fund is a process-driven fund house that employs sound risk management techniques. This has helped Canara Robeco Flexi Cap Fund do well to curb the downside risk during depressed conditions as seen during the market crash of 2020. Moreover, the performance on the upside has been in line with that of the benchmark. In certain market phases, the fund has more than outperformed the index and the category average. This ability enables it to rank high in terms of risk-adjusted returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
