Canara Robeco Equity Tax Saver fund ranks first among ELSS funds with a 3 year track record.  This fund predominantly invests in large cap stocks with a reasonable mix of midcap stocks (and higher risk).  The fund does not have a large asset base, but has done a good job with a compact portfolio.

HDFC Tax Saver and ICICI Prudential Tax Plan hold the second and third positions respectively. These two funds invest predominantly in large cap funds and have similar performance profile.  The largest of the ELSS funds, SBI Magnum Tax Gain, is in the fifth position.
