To 30 Sep 2026. Returns are yearly (CAGR) from AMFI month-end NAVs of the Growth option. An index's return is measured through a low-cost index fund's direct plan, so it is a little below the index itself. Past returns do not tell you what a fund will do next, and this is not a recommendation to buy or sell any fund.
