Typically, past returns do not guarantee future returns, but they certainly give an indication of how the scheme has been performing in the recent past and what trajectory of returns it could take in future.
Here, we list out the top performing flexi cap mutual funds which have delivered more than 20 percent annualised return in the past five years. This means if someone had invested ₹one lakh five years ago, the investment would have swelled to ₹2.48 lakh by now.

Meanwhile, it is important to mention here that the historical returns do not guarantee future returns. In other words, just because a scheme has delivered good returns in the past, it does not mean that it will surely deliver good returns in the future as well.
