LIC MF Midcap Fund

LIC MF Midcap Fund is a mid cap equity fund from LIC Mutual Fund. This page covers the direct plan, growth option, the version with no distributor commission inside its expense ratio. A fund in this category invests mainly in companies ranked 101 to 250 by market value, which have more room to grow than large companies and swing further in a downturn.

It manages ₹369 crore of investors' money and charges an expense ratio of 1.98 percent a year, deducted before the NAV is struck. Its direct plan lost 2.14 percent over the past year but has returned 13.9 percent a year over three years and 10.7 percent a year over five years; figures beyond a year are annualised, and past returns say nothing certain about future ones. The scheme is managed by Alok Ranjan.

The riskometer places it at very high risk, where most equity funds sit.

How LIC MF Midcap Fund is taxed

Mutual fund gains are capital gains, taxed when you redeem, and the rate depends on what the scheme holds and how long you held the units. The rules below are those in force after the Finance Act of 2024 for redemptions from 23 July 2024, with the changes of April 2025 for gold, silver and international funds.

Equity-oriented schemes, those keeping at least sixty-five percent in Indian shares, which includes most aggressive hybrid, arbitrage and equity savings funds, are taxed at the equity rates. Units sold within twelve months of purchase are short-term, taxed at twenty percent. Units held longer are long-term, taxed at twelve and a half percent on gains above one lakh twenty-five thousand rupees in a financial year, with no indexation. Securities transaction tax is deducted on redemption.
