Should You Invest In Axis Small Cap Fund - Regular Plan

Let’s start off by understanding what a small-cap fund does. In simple words, a small-cap fund invests in shares of small-cap companies. Most of these companies are budding organizations some of which may even have the potential to become industry leaders in the future.

2. What Does Alpha Mean?
