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 Overnight 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 28 Aug 2026.

The worst it has been

Deepest fallTime to recoverToday, from its peak
-0.1%At 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.

How it compares in its category

Against the Overnight 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 the category index. 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 Overnight Funds scheme is

Debt maturing in a single day.

The lowest risk in the entire industry. Everything matures tomorrow, so interest-rate moves and credit events have almost nothing to act on. The return is correspondingly small.

Who it suits. Very short parking, or money awaiting a decision.

How long money should stay. Days to weeks.

Questions people ask

What is the NAV of Choice Overnight Fund — Direct Plan — Daily IDCW?

₹100.1000 as on 28 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 Choice Overnight 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 Daily IDCW option mean?

An IDCW option pays part of the fund's gains out to you, and the NAV falls by exactly what it pays. It is not extra return — it is your own money returned, taxed at your slab rate. That also means a return computed from NAV alone understates an IDCW scheme, which is why no CAGR is shown here for it.

What kind of scheme is this?

Debt maturing in a single day. The lowest risk in the entire industry. Everything matures tomorrow, so interest-rate moves and credit events have almost nothing to act on. The return is correspondingly small.

How long should money stay in it?

Typically Days to weeks. Very short parking, or money awaiting a decision.
