mutual fund that&#8217;s still going strong in India is UTI Mastershare Unit Scheme &#8211; and it&#8217;s been around since 15 October 1986.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Originally a closed fund, its format was changed to open-ended in 2003. It&#8217;s pretty much a large-cap equity fund &#8211; and with a 38-year performance record under its belt &#8211; it has one of the longest records to date of multiple market cycles in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Fun fact: UTI Mastershare was launched before the BSE Sensex had even crossed the 700 mark.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-a-brief-history-of-mutual-funds-in-india\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Brief_History_of_Mutual_Funds_in_India\"><\/span>A Brief History of Mutual Funds in India<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before we list the old mutual funds in India, let&#8217;s help to understand where they came from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Indian mutual fund story begins in 1963, when the Government of India established the Unit Trust of India (UTI) through an Act of Parliament. The Reserve Bank of India played a key role in setting it up. UTI&#8217;s goal was simple, give small investors access to the capital market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1964, UTI launched its first scheme, Unit Scheme 1964 (US-64). For almost 24 years, UTI enjoyed a complete monopoly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The industry evolved in four broad phases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table has-small-font-size\"><table><thead><tr><th>Phase<\/th><th>Period<\/th><th>Key Development<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Phase 1<\/td><td>1963 &#8211; 1987<\/td><td>UTI monopoly, US-64 launched<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Phase 2<\/td><td>1987 &#8211; 1993<\/td><td>Public sector banks enter; SBI MF, Canbank MF launched<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Phase 3<\/td><td>1993 &#8211; 2003<\/td><td>Private players allowed; SEBI takes over regulation<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Phase 4<\/td><td>2003 &#8211; Present<\/td><td>Rapid growth, digital platforms, SIP popularisation<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This structure gave birth to the oldest mutual fund schemes in India that we still know today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read Also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocketful.in\/blog\/mutual-funds\/best-sip-mutual-funds-in-india\/\">Best SIP Mutual Funds in India<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-list-of-the-oldest-mutual-fund-schemes-in-india-still-active\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"List_of_the_Oldest_Mutual_Fund_Schemes_in_India_Still_Active\"><\/span>List of the Oldest Mutual Fund Schemes in India (Still Active)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a curated list of oldest mutual fund schemes in India that have remained operational across decades:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table has-small-font-size\"><table><thead><tr><th>Fund Name<\/th><th>Launch Date<\/th><th>Category<\/th><th>AUM (Approx.)<\/th><th>5-Year CAGR<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>UTI Mastershare Unit Scheme<\/td><td>Oct 1986<\/td><td>Large Cap<\/td><td>\u20b912,719 Cr<\/td><td>20.38%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SBI Magnum Equity ESG Fund<\/td><td>Jan 1991<\/td><td>ESG Equity<\/td><td>\u20b95,556 Cr<\/td><td>20.72%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>LIC MF Aggressive Hybrid Fund<\/td><td>Mar 1991<\/td><td>Aggressive Hybrid<\/td><td>\u20b9506 Cr<\/td><td>10.46%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>UTI Flexi Cap Fund<\/td><td>May 1992<\/td><td>Flexi Cap<\/td><td>\u20b927,706 Cr<\/td><td>14.98%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tata Large &amp; Mid Cap Fund<\/td><td>Feb 1993<\/td><td>Large &amp; Mid Cap<\/td><td>\u20b98,294 Cr<\/td><td>23.74%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Canara Robeco Equity Hybrid Fund<\/td><td>Feb 1993<\/td><td>Hybrid<\/td><td>\u20b911,450 Cr<\/td><td>12.34%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Franklin India Prima Fund<\/td><td>Oct 1993<\/td><td>Mid Cap<\/td><td>\u20b98,363 Cr<\/td><td>20%+<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Franklin India Bluechip Fund<\/td><td>Dec 1993<\/td><td>Large Cap<\/td><td>\u20b99,000 Cr<\/td><td>14%+<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-overview-of-oldest-mutual-fund-schemes-in-india\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Overview_of_Oldest_Mutual_Fund_Schemes_in_India\"><\/span>Overview of Oldest Mutual Fund Schemes in India<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-1-uti-mastershare-unit-scheme-1986-the-pioneer\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">1. UTI Mastershare Unit Scheme (1986) &#8211; The Pioneer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is much more than the oldest mutual fund scheme in India &#8211; it&#8217;s a landmark moment in the country&#8217;s financial history. Back when most Indians had never even heard of the words &#8216;equity fund&#8217;, UTI Mastershare made retail investors&#8217; first foray into large-cap stocks a little less daunting. It was a pretty big deal, let&#8217;s be honest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Invests about 95% of its capital in large-cap blue-chips.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expense ratio: roughly 1.76% (for the regular plan)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10 years on, the CAGR is about 12.54%&#8230; and since inception, 15.35%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As of 2025, its AUM is ~\u20b912,719 crore<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This fund&#8217;s navigated some of the toughest times &#8211; 1992&#8217;s Harshad Mehta scandal, the 2000 dot-com crash, the 2008 global financial crisis and the 2020 COVID selloff, to name a few. And somehow, it still managed to deliver. That&#8217;s a track record which deserves attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-2-sbi-magnum-equity-esg-fund-1991-the-reformer\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">2. SBI Magnum Equity ESG Fund (1991) &#8211; The Reformer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initially launched as Magnum Multiplier Scheme &#8217;90, SBI Magnum Equity ESG Fund is one of the oldest public-sector equity funds still around today. In 2018, following SEBI&#8217;s new guidelines, it was rebranded to its current form and shifted its focus to ESG investing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: ESG\/Thematic Equity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUM is \u20b95,556 crore<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The expense ratio for the regular plan is about 1.94%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over 5 years, the CAGR is around 20.72%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who believe in making a difference with their investments as well as getting solid returns, this one of the old mutual funds in India that fits the bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-3-lic-mf-aggressive-hybrid-fund-1991-the-balanced-veteran\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">3. LIC MF Aggressive Hybrid Fund (1991) &#8211; The Balanced Veteran<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a long time, this scheme was known as LIC Balanced Fund and has been around since March 1991. As a classic hybrid, it roughly splits its portfolio \u00be in equity and \u00bc in debt instruments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: Aggressive Hybrid<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUM is \u20b9506 crore<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expense ratio for the regular plan is roughly 2.48%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over 5 years, the CAGR is about 10.46%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact that this fund has a relatively smaller AUM, unfortunately means it flies under the radar compared to its peers. However, its three-decade track record is something to take note of. It&#8217;s perfect for those who prefer a mix of equity and debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-4-uti-flexi-cap-fund-1992-the-versatile-survivor\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">4. UTI Flexi Cap Fund (1992) &#8211; The Versatile Survivor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When launched in May 1992 as UTI Equity Fund , UTI Flexi Cap Fund was one of the oldest mutual funds out there, especially in the flexi-cap category. This gives the fund manager freedom to decide where to allocate the capital across large-, mid- and small-cap stocks &#8211; the key is getting the right mix based on valuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: Flexi Cap<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUM is \u20b927,706 crore<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expense ratio for the regular plan is about 1.64%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Over 10 years, the CAGR is about 13.20%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The size &#8211; getting on for \u20b927,000 crore in AUM &#8211; is a testament to the years and years of investor trust that&#8217;s gone into the fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-5-tata-large-amp-mid-cap-fund-1993-the-growth-seeker\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">5. Tata Large &amp; Mid Cap Fund (1993) &#8211; The Growth Seeker<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Originally launched as Ind Sagar and later as Tata Young Citizens Fund, this scheme has gone through mandate changes and eventually settled into the Large &amp; Mid Cap category. It balances the stability of large-cap companies with the growth potential of mid-caps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: Large &amp; Mid Cap<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUM is \u20b98,294 crore<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expense ratio: 1.78% (regular plan)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>5-year CAGR: 23.74%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3-year CAGR: 20.65%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 23.74% five-year CAGR makes this one of the stronger performers among oldest mutual funds in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-6-canara-robeco-equity-hybrid-fund-1993-the-conservative-compounder\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">6. Canara Robeco Equity Hybrid Fund (1993) &#8211; The Conservative Compounder<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This fund has been building wealth quietly since February 1993. It maintains a 65\u201380% equity exposure and parks the rest in debt, making it a popular choice for moderate-risk investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: Aggressive Hybrid<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUM is \u20b911,450 crore<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>10-year CAGR: 12.34%<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One-year return (June 2025): 10.12%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is the go-to fund for investors who want equity participation without full equity volatility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-7-franklin-india-prima-fund-1993-the-oldest-small-amp-mid-cap-fund\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">7. Franklin India Prima Fund (1993) &#8211; The Oldest Small &amp; Mid Cap Fund<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When talking about the oldest small cap mutual fund in India, Franklin India Prima Fund deserves a mention. Launched on 30 October 1993, it is one of the earliest funds to focus on mid- and small-cap stocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: Mid Cap<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUM: \u20b98,363 crore<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Focus: High-growth mid and small-sized companies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Managed by Franklin Templeton AMC<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Franklin Templeton itself took over the erstwhile Kothari Pioneer Mutual Fund, which was India&#8217;s first private sector AMC. That lineage makes Franklin India Prima Fund one of the oldest surviving small and mid cap oriented schemes in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-8-franklin-india-bluechip-fund-1993-the-private-sector-pioneer\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">8. Franklin India Bluechip Fund (1993) &#8211; The Private Sector Pioneer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Launched in December 1993, this was one of the earliest large-cap equity funds from the private sector. It was originally set up by Kothari Pioneer (later acquired by Franklin Templeton) and has consistently focused on investing in established, blue-chip businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Category: Large Cap<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Primary focus: Blue-chip, industry-leading companies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One of the earliest private-sector equity mutual fund schemes in India<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-what-makes-these-old-mutual-funds-still-relevant\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Makes_These_Old_Mutual_Funds_Still_Relevant\"><\/span>What Makes These Old Mutual Funds Still Relevant?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might wonder, with hundreds of new funds launching every year, why should you care about funds that are 30+ years old?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Here&#8217;s what decades of operation actually mean:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Multiple market cycles tested:<\/strong> these funds have made it through not just one, not two, but multiple market meltdowns: the Harshad Mehta fiasco in 1992, the dot-com implosion in 2000, the Lehman Bros. collapse in 2008, the demonetisation panic in 2016 and even the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. That&#8217;s a lot of years of real-world testing that new funds just can&#8217;t match up to.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Experienced fund management:<\/strong> Fund houses that&#8217;ve been doing this for a long time &#8211; &amp; the people running these funds have developed a lot of institutional knowledge over the years.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>SEBI track record<\/strong>: Older funds have had time to get it right &#8211; to build in good practices for compliance &amp; governance. They&#8217;ve also got a solid record with SEBI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Historical data for analysis:<\/strong> 25-38 years of NAV history is an incredible resource for an investor. You can put these funds through all sorts of scenarios to see how they&#8217;d perform in different markets conditions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-key-things-to-check-before-investing\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Things_to_Check_Before_Investing\"><\/span>Key Things to Check Before Investing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Age alone does not make a fund a good investment. Before putting money into any of these oldest mutual fund schemes in India, evaluate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Expense ratio<\/strong> &#8211; Lower is better, especially for long-term compounding.

But it still is in circulation which is quite an achievement. It is being managed by UTI AMC and is a large-cap equity type of fund &#8211; that&#8217;s interesting.

They&#8217;ve consistently stuck to a strategy of investing in large-cap, blue-chip companies right from the start.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\">Which is the oldest small-cap mutual fund in India?<\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">If you&#8217;re looking at the older small cap oriented schemes then the Franklin India Prima Fund is definitely one to consider &#8211; its been around since 30 October 1993.
