How this is computed

Each verdict is computed from this fund's own metrics against its sub-category — the number behind it is shown, not a black-box rating. The stars weight the same ground 60/15/10/15 (performance/risk/cost/downside) across every fund in the peer group. Ranked within Index Funds (same plan and option). Based on a 1-year record — this fund is too young for a 3-year CAGR, so its performance is ranked on 1Y against the same peers. 331 of the 374 Index Funds in this cohort carry the full record the stars need, so they are the ones ranked against.

Taxation

Taxed as equity

This 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.

Short-term (STCG)
20%
Held under 1 year

Flat, on the whole gain

Long-term (LTCG)
12.5%
Held 1 year or more

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 · AMFI
₹499.02Cr
April - June 2026
-14%
since January - March 2026

Down +14% from its peak of ₹582.47Cr in January - March 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.

Returns and risk are computed from NAV history and may differ slightly from other portals due to methodology (rolling vs point-to-point, dividend treatment). For research only — not investment advice.

About Index funds & ETFs

Index funds and ETFs simply track a benchmark such as the Nifty 50 rather than trying to beat it. They charge far lower fees than active funds, and their return is the index's return minus that small cost.
