This is the Regular plan of UTI - Liquid Fund — bought through a distributor, whose commission is paid out of its expense ratio. Income is distributed periodically, which is why this NAV sits below the growth plan of the same fund.
This is the IDCW (dividend) option — it pays its earnings out as dividends rather than reinvesting them, so every payout steps the NAV down and the return figures below leave those payouts out. Your actual return was higher by whatever was distributed. That’s expected for a payout plan, not missing data.

Asset allocation
As on 31 Aug 2026 · AMC disclosure- Debt85.32%
- Cash & Equivalents14.59%
Cash & cash-like: 56.40% — the 14.59% above plus treasury bills, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and TREPS, which the allocation files under Debt but the market counts as cash-equivalent.
Fund size over time
Quarterly average AUM · AMFIAt or near its largest, ₹78.42L in April - June 2026. Size matters most where the mandate is narrow — a large small-cap or a very large flexi-cap book is harder to move without moving the price.
Net flow is an estimate: AMFI publishes a quarterly average AUM, not a closing balance, and it covers every plan and option of this scheme together, so it is a read on direction and rough size rather than a cash-flow statement.
AMC Profile
UTI Mutual Fund descends from the Unit Trust of India, which was effectively the whole Indian mutual fund industry from 1963 until private managers were allowed in. It was carved out as a SEBI-registered fund house in 2003, is listed on the exchanges, and is held by SBI, LIC, Bank of Baroda, PNB and T. Rowe Price rather than a single parent.
