This is one fund that has been rated 5-star by Morning Star, CRISIL and Value Research, which makes it a good largecap equity mutual fund to buy in India. The fund is mandated to invest in large cap stocks and it has high ratings across. The assets under management of the fund is around Rs 2,888 crores, which is not great when compared to other peers, but, its performance, portfolio and ratings, make it a great investment bet.
A SIP started for Rs 10,000 3-years ago, would have helped create a corpus of Rs 5.13 lakhs. This means a sum of Rs 3.6 lakhs has helped create a corpus of Rs 5.13 lakhs. Investors looking to invest in Canara Robeco Bluechip Equity Fund can do so by way of a small SIP of Rs 1,000 each month.
Axis Blue Chip Fund
This equity mutual fund has been rated “5 star” by Value Research and Morning Star. Axis Blue Chip Fund has been a consistent performer and has often been accorded great faith by investors.

BNP Paribas Large Cap Fund
