Aditya Birla Sun Life Retirement Fund-The 30s
Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund · Best Retirement Mutual Funds
This is the Regular plan of Aditya Birla Sun Life Retirement Fund-The 30s — bought through a distributor, whose commission is paid out of its expense ratio. Income is distributed, 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.

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, ₹434.17Cr 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.
