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 Multi Asset Allocation (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. 31 of the 36 Multi Asset Allocation funds in this cohort carry the full record the stars need, so they are the ones ranked against.

Overlap is the share of each fund's equity book invested in the same stocks, by weight, across the Direct-plan universe — so a fund that is only part equity is labelled as such. ! marks a pair holding more in common than nine pairs in ten of its type, where that type has a measured distribution.

est. net flow, last quarter

At or near its largest, ₹2,778Cr 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

Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund is the Indian arm of Franklin Resources, the US manager, and has operated here since 1996. In April 2020 it wound up six of its Indian debt schemes — the largest such closure the industry has seen — and returned the money to unitholders over the following years.
