Anything over a year is annualised (CAGR); shorter windows are absolute. The benchmark row is the index fund named below, priced daily by AMFI like every other scheme here. The category row is the median Direct plan in Index Funds — the middle fund, not a ranking, and a median rather than an average so that one mis-stated scheme cannot move it. As on 27 Aug 2026.

Risk-free rate 6.5%. Beta and alpha need an index, so the benchmark's own row leaves them blank.

Against its benchmark

Regressed on the 22 months this fund and Nifty 100 (via Axis Nifty 100 Index Fund) both have. Alpha is Jensen's — the return left over after the market move this fund's own beta would predict.

Up and down capture are the pair worth reading together: a fund that takes 95% of the rises but only 80% of the falls is doing something a headline CAGR will never show you.

The worst it has been

Deepest fallTime to recoverToday, from its peak
-0.1%0 monthsAt a high

A drawdown is the fall from a previous high to the low that followed it. It is the number that decides whether somebody stays invested — a fund can have an excellent ten-year return and still have been unbearable to hold in year four.

Every one-year period it has lived through

Best yearMedian yearWorst yearLosing years
8.4%7.7%6.7%0%
Worst6.7%Median7.7%Best8.4%now
The full spread of one-year outcomes, with the fund's actual last twelve months marked. It answers the question a single number cannot: is right now an ordinary year for this fund, or an unusual one?

Rolling returns ask a fairer question than a single five-year figure: not "what did it do from this one start date", but "what happened across every start date". A fund whose worst year is −45% is a different proposition from one whose worst is −8%, even if the averages match.

Calendar years

8.1%20254.5%2026InvestVerdict
Each year on its own, January to December. Losing years hang below the line — averages hide them, and the years somebody actually had to sit through are the ones that decide whether they stayed.

What it actually holds

The real portfolio the AMC filed with AMFI. Nothing here is estimated — when a fund has no filing in our store the section simply does not appear. A fund is its holdings; the returns above are only what those holdings did.

Asset allocation

94.06%Debt
5.94%Cash & Equivalents

A fund's risk starts here — how much of it is even in the market — before any question of which stocks or which sectors. Cash is not idleness; it is the manager's choice not to be invested, and it shows up as a drag in a rising market and a cushion in a falling one.

How it compares in its category

Against the Index Funds Direct schemes with the highest three-year return. Same category, same plan — the only comparison that means anything. The list re-sorts itself as returns move; it is an ordering by one number, not a view on which fund anyone should hold.

Alpha and beta are against Nifty 100. Max fall is the deepest peak-to-trough drop in each fund's own history, so a longer-running fund has had more chances to record a bad one. Click a column to sort. This is a sort, not a ranking, and nothing here is a recommendation.

What a Index Funds scheme is

Track an index, holding its constituents in its proportions.

No manager, no stock picking, and an expense ratio a fraction of an active fund's. Over long periods that fee gap alone beats a majority of active large-cap funds — which is the strongest argument index funds have.

Who it suits. Anybody who would rather have the market's return at the lowest cost than try to beat it.

How long money should stay. 5 years or more.

Questions people ask

What is the NAV of Aditya Birla Sun Life Crisil-IBX AAA NBFC-HFC INDEX-Sep 2026 Fund — Direct Plan — GROWTH?

₹11.4946 as on 27 Aug 2026, from AMFI's daily NAV file. NAV is declared once each business day after markets close, so the figure here is the most recent one published.

What is the difference between the Direct and Regular plan of Aditya Birla Sun Life Crisil-IBX AAA NBFC-HFC INDEX-Sep 2026 Fund?

They hold the identical portfolio, run by the same manager. A Regular plan pays a distributor commission out of the fund, inside its expense ratio — commonly 0.5% to 1.2% a year more than Direct. That difference is charged on the whole balance, every year, so it compounds: on ₹1,00,000 held ten years a gap of 1.5 percentage points is roughly ₹1.4 lakh of ending value. Direct is the same fund without the commission.

What does the Growth option mean?

Growth reinvests everything the fund earns back into the NAV. Nothing is paid out, so the NAV rises with returns and you are taxed only when you sell. For anybody who does not need income from the investment, Growth is the simpler and usually the more tax-efficient option.

What kind of scheme is this?

Track an index, holding its constituents in its proportions. No manager, no stock picking, and an expense ratio a fraction of an active fund's. Over long periods that fee gap alone beats a majority of active large-cap funds — which is the strongest argument index funds have.

How long should money stay in it?

Typically 5 years or more. Anybody who would rather have the market's return at the lowest cost than try to beat it.
