Key Things to Know
Asian Asset Management Leader — South Korean Heritage
Mirae Asset Financial Group is one of Asia's largest independent asset managers, headquartered in Seoul. The group has successfully navigated the dramatic growth and volatility of Asian equity markets across multiple cycles. This Asian market expertise translates directly to Indian small cap investing.
Strong Performance Culture Across All Funds
Mirae Asset India is known for consistently delivering top-quartile performance across its fund range. Its large cap and flexi cap funds have been among the most highly rated in India for extended periods. This performance culture is a meaningful predictor of the small cap fund's likely approach and discipline.
Rigorous Fundamental Research Process
Mirae Asset applies the same rigorous fundamental research framework across all its equity funds. For the small cap fund, this means detailed business analysis, management quality assessment and valuation discipline — the same standards applied to the large cap fund, adapted for the higher risk and less liquid small cap universe.
Newer Small Cap Fund — Limited History Available
While Mirae Asset has a long track record in India across other fund categories, the small cap fund itself is relatively newer. Investors should evaluate the fund's track record carefully. The team's capabilities can be better assessed through their broader India equity track record.

What is AAUM? AAUM (Average Assets Under Management) is the average fund corpus over a full quarter, as officially reported to AMFI. It is a more reliable indicator of fund size than point-in-time AUM, which can be inflated by large inflows on the last day of a month. All AUM figures on this page are from official AMFI quarterly disclosures.

Trailing Returns

All returns are computed from the fund's official NAV history. Periods where the fund does not have sufficient history are shown as — and are never estimated or extrapolated. 1M and 3M are absolute returns. 1Y and above are CAGR.

What is CAGR? Compounded Annual Growth Rate. A 3Y CAGR of 20% means your money grew at 20% per year compounded over three years. Always compare funds on 3Y and 5Y CAGR rather than short-term returns to judge true long-term performance.

NAV History
Risk Analysis

Maximum Drawdown

Drawdown measures the biggest fall from a peak NAV. Small cap funds regularly fall 40–60% in severe bear markets. Understanding this before you invest is what helps you stay the course during crashes rather than panic-selling at the worst possible moment.

What is the 200 DMA? The 200-Day Moving Average is the average NAV over the last 200 trading days. When the current NAV is above this line the fund is in an uptrend. When below, it signals a downtrend. It is a trend indicator, not a buy/sell recommendation.

Risk Metrics

Risk-Adjusted Performance

These ratios measure how much return the fund delivered per unit of risk. Two funds with identical 3-year returns can have very different volatility profiles. A fund delivering the same return with lower volatility is the better risk-adjusted performer.

Sharpe Ratio (3Y)
Return per unit of total volatility. Above 1.0 is good. Above 1.5 is strong.
Sortino Ratio (3Y)
Like Sharpe but only penalises downside volatility. Rewards one-sided upward movement.
Std Deviation (3Y)
Monthly return volatility. Higher means more unpredictable outcomes for investors.
Investor Fit

Who Should — and Should Not — Invest

Small cap funds are not for everyone. High long-term return potential comes with very high short-term volatility and the real possibility of 40–60% falls in severe corrections.

✓ Suitable For
Investors with a 7+ year horizon who can stay invested through full market cycles
SIP investors committed to continuing during downturns — that is when real wealth is built
Those using this as a satellite allocation alongside a large cap or flexi cap core
Investors who genuinely accept 40–60% temporary falls as normal
✗ Not Suitable For
Anyone who needs money within 5 years — small caps can stay depressed for years post-crash
Investors who panic sell during corrections — the worst time to exit feels most urgent
Those making this their only equity fund — concentration in small caps without a large cap base is risky
First-time investors — build a large cap or flexi cap foundation first
