The article provides investment style characteristics and risk assessments for each fund, including momentum, value, and quality metrics.The Times of India8 smallcap funds struggled with consistency in the last 5 years. Do you own any? - Low consistent small caps | The Economic TimesEight small-cap mutual funds exhibited low performance consistency over the past five years, according to the CRISP Mutual Fund Scorecard for Q1 2026 published by Share.Market by Phonepe. The funds analyzed include LIC MF Small Cap Fund (46% consistency, 15.74% CAGR), ICICI Prudential Smallcap Fund (46%, 15.33% CAGR), UTI Small Cap Fund (41%, 14.71% CAGR), Union Small Cap Fund (39%, 16.43% CAGR), Canara Robeco Small Cap Fund (37%, 16.74% CAGR), SBI Small Cap Fund (30%, 13.02% CAGR), Aditya Birla Sun Life Small Cap Fund (25%, 12.35% CAGR), and Kotak Small Cap Fund (24%, 12.74% CAGR).

The report suggests that timing and valuation are crucial in small-cap investing due to their cyclical performance. Recent market corrections have narrowed the performance gap between the two segments, emphasizing the importance of fund selection and a tactical approach for small-cap investments.MintSBI vs PNB vs BoB: Which PSU bank stock to buy after Q4 results 2026? | Stock Market NewsThree major Indian public sector banks — State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, and Bank of Baroda — reported profit growth in Q4 FY26, with SBI posting a 5.6% YoY rise in net profit to ₹19,683.75 crore, PNB reporting 14.41% YoY growth to ₹5,225.11 crore, and BoB posting an 11.25% YoY increase to ₹5,615.68 crore.

Naik explains that SIPs work by spreading investments over time, allowing investors to buy more units when markets fall and fewer when markets rise, effectively averaging out costs and reducing pressure to time the market. The article also highlights the rise of daily SIPs starting at ₹10 per day, which the author presents as making investing more inclusive for Indian investors with irregular income streams, and emphasizes that compounding over long periods is the primary driver of wealth creation.
