Taxation
Taxed as equityThis is an equity-oriented fund (≥65% in Indian equities), so gains get the concessional capital-gains rates below — they do not add to your income-tax slab.
Flat, on the whole gain
On gains above ₹1.25 L per financial year
Applies to capital gains on redemption. Excludes IDCW/dividend tax, STT, surcharge and cess, and pre-2018 equity grandfathering. For research only — consult a tax advisor before filing.

Fund size over time
Quarterly average AUM · AMFIAt or near its largest, ₹53,661Cr 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.

About Equity ETFs
Equity ETFs track an equity index and trade on the exchange through the day, so you buy at a market price that can sit slightly above or below the fund's NAV. That is the trade-off against an index fund, which always transacts at NAV but only once a day.
Frequently asked questions
What is the NAV of UTI BSE Sensex ETF?
As of 05 Oct 2026, the NAV of UTI BSE Sensex ETF is ₹802.82 per unit. NAV (net asset value) is the fund's per-unit price, published once each business day.
What returns has UTI BSE Sensex ETF delivered?
UTI BSE Sensex ETF has returned -9.91% over 1 year, +4.46% per year over 3 years, +5.12% per year over 5 years and +10.91% per year since inception. Figures beyond one year are annualised (CAGR) and are computed from AMFI NAV history, so they may differ slightly from other portals.
What are the top holdings of UTI BSE Sensex ETF?
UTI BSE Sensex ETF's largest holdings are HDFC BANK LIMITED (11.8%), ICICI BANK LTD (11.4%), RELIANCE INDUSTRIES LTD. (9.5%), BHARTI AIRTEL LTD. (6.1%) and LARSEN & TOUBRO LTD. (5.2%). Holdings are disclosed monthly and change over time.
How risky is UTI BSE Sensex ETF?
UTI BSE Sensex ETF is rated very high on SEBI's risk-o-meter, its trailing-3Y volatility (annualised) is 13.3% and its worst peak-to-trough fall in our sample was -37.9%. Higher volatility means the NAV swings more; the drawdown shows how far it has fallen from a peak historically.
What does the Sharpe ratio of -0.15 mean?
The Sharpe ratio is return earned per unit of total risk, above a 6.5% risk-free rate. UTI BSE Sensex ETF's -0.15 means it has not compensated investors for its volatility over the window. Higher is better.
What is the benchmark of UTI BSE Sensex ETF?
UTI BSE Sensex ETF is benchmarked against the BSE Sensex TRI. Its alpha and beta on this page are measured against that index.
Who manages UTI BSE Sensex ETF?
UTI BSE Sensex ETF is managed by Ayush Jain, Sharwan Kumar Goyal and Lokesh Kulthia at UTI.
How is UTI BSE Sensex ETF taxed?
UTI BSE Sensex ETF is an equity-oriented fund, so its capital gains get concessional rates: short-term gains (units held under 1 year) are taxed at 20%, and long-term gains (held 1 year or more) at 12.5% above a ₹1.25 lakh per-year exemption. These rates apply on redemption and don't add to your income-tax slab.
