2020 was owned by the pharma and IT sector in fighting and coping up with the virus as well as in the stock markets. These sectors served the humanity and topped the charts to deliver wonderful returns to the investors during the year. Pharma and IT sector mutual funds replicated the performance to remain on top of the performance charts among the equity schemes in the last one year. Mid and small cap mutual funds, laggards at the beginning of the year, also bounced back to become the best performing categories across equity mutual funds, after the pharma and IT sector funds.
Here is a list of equity mutual funds which delivered over 50% returns in the last year. Your investment decision should not get influenced by these returns as there is no guarantee of repetition of past performance. Also, sectoral schemes are high risk investment. These are meant for sophisticated investors who understand the risk involved.
