Large institutional investors, such as mutual funds, often set the pace for individual investors by leveraging their extensive research and analytical capabilities to uncover promising investment opportunities that might otherwise go unnoticed.

An ETMarkets analysis has identified a notable trend: mutual funds have gradually increased their holdings in 120 small-cap stocks over the past four quarters, spanning June 2024 to March 2025.

Of these, 9 small-cap stocks have delivered impressive gains of 80–150%, with 3 of them emerging as multibaggers—stocks that have multiplied investor wealth several times over. (Data Source: ACE Equity)
