Taxation
Taxed as equityThis is an equity-oriented fund (≥65% in Indian equities), so gains get the concessional capital-gains rates below — they do not add to your income-tax slab.
Flat, on the whole gain

Fund size over time
Quarterly average AUM · AMFIAt or near its largest, ₹22,997Cr in April - June 2026. Size matters most where the mandate is narrow — a large small-cap or a very large flexi-cap book is harder to move without moving the price.
Net flow is an estimate: AMFI publishes a quarterly average AUM, not a closing balance, and it covers every plan and option of this scheme together, so it is a read on direction and rough size rather than a cash-flow statement.
AMC Profile
SBI Mutual Fund is a joint venture between the State Bank of India and Amundi of France, and was set up in 1987 as the first fund house in India outside UTI. It is the largest by assets, helped by managing a share of the EPFO's ETF investments.

About Multi Cap funds
Multi cap funds must hold at least 25% each in large, mid and small-cap stocks at all times. The fixed minimums give more mid- and small-cap exposure than a flexi cap, and usually more volatility.
