About LIC MF Multi Cap Fund

LIC MF Multi Cap Fund is a multi cap fund managed by LIC Mutual Fund. Invest at least 25% each in large, mid and small caps, giving exposure across company sizes.

The investment objective of the scheme is to generate long term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity & equity related instruments across large cap, mid cap and small cap stocks.

The scheme's stated objective, as published by LIC Mutual Fund.

The NAV (net asset value) is the price of one unit of the fund. It is published by the fund house every business day and changes with the value of the fund's holdings. The Growth option reinvests all gains, so its NAV reflects the fund's total return.

Gains are taxed as equity: sell within 12 months and the gain is short-term, taxed at 20%. Hold longer and it is long-term, taxed at 12.5% on gains above ₹1.25 lakh in a financial year, across all your equity investments.
