The table above ranks the top 13 stocks in the Insurance sector by the number of Indian mutual fund schemes holding them as of April 2026. When a large number of fund managers independently choose the same stock, it is a powerful signal of institutional conviction — these are the stocks that professional money managers believe in most.
A stock held by 200+ mutual funds means that hundreds of fund managers — each doing their own independent research — have concluded that this stock deserves a place in their portfolio. This collective wisdom is one of the most reliable indicators of a stock's quality within its sector. The average weight shows how much of their portfolio each fund typically allocates to the stock, and the total MF value shows the combined rupee investment across all funds holding it.
