Advanced Ratios

Computed over the last 12 months (366 days, 246 aligned NAV points) of this fund's own real daily NAV against the Nifty 50, using India's 10-year G-Sec yield (6.8%) as the risk-free rate. This is a shorter window than most competitor sites use (typically 3-5 years), so Sharpe and Sortino can look quite different when recent returns have been weak: we'd rather show the window than hide it.

Exit Load, Stamp Duty and Tax

Every purchase carries a flat 0.005% stamp duty. Exit load, charged only within a certain holding period, is set by the AMC per scheme and disclosed in its SID: check there before redeeming if timing matters.

Tax treatment for hybrid schemes depends on the fund's actual average equity allocation during the year, not just its category label: funds that maintain 65% or more in equity and equity derivatives are taxed as equity-oriented funds, while funds below that threshold are taxed as debt-oriented funds under the post-April 2023 rules.
