Prospera VerdictProspera Recommended

Prospera Score 69.3, rated Moderate Buy. Ranked 1 in its flexi cap peer group and approved as Gate 5 conditional: it is 0.7 points below the Gate 5 threshold of 70 but still a Moderate Buy on every measure, so it is offered with that disclosed. Measured against 27 comparable flexi cap funds on AMFI weekly Direct-plan NAVs to 30 Sep 2026 (5.0 years of history): largest fall from a peak 12.0%, 3-year return 14.6% a year. Lead manager Amit Ganatra took over in February 2026, so the record under the current manager is short; Prospera caps its manager-quality score for twelve months after any change of lead manager.
