The above table shows some of the funds that performed well two years back, are now the laggard. Axis Bluechip Fund, which always topped the chart in terms of performance and has an AUM of more than Rs 32,000 crore has also underperformed its benchmark by almost 5%. This is despite the fund having one of the lowest expense ratios.
This is the right time for investors to go back and check their asset allocation and investigate more about the funds where they have invested. If they find their funds are permanently underperforming, they should make a switch.
