Point-to-point CAGR from AMFI NAV history, Direct plans only. Ordered by five-year return so the list has a shape, not because the order is a judgement. Past returns do not predict future ones — a fund near the top is usually there because its style suited the last five years, and styles take turns.

Questions people ask
What is a Liquid Funds fund?
Debt maturing within 91 days. The place money waits. Redemption reaches the bank in one working day, and a small instant-redemption limit is usually available. Not a savings account, and not guaranteed — but as close as a fund gets.
Who should invest in Liquid Funds funds?
Emergency money and anything needed within weeks. A sensible holding period is Days to 3 months.
How is this list ordered?
By five-year CAGR computed from AMFI's published NAV history, within one plan type. It is a sort, not a verdict — a fund near the top is there because its style suited the last five years, which is not a promise about the next five.
Should I choose the Direct or Regular plan?
A Direct plan holds exactly the same portfolio without the distributor commission, so its expense ratio is lower — commonly 0.5% to 1.2% a year — and it compounds ahead of the Regular plan for ever. Choose Regular only if you want an intermediary's advice and are content to pay for it annually.
