This scheme has not published a NAV since 4 Sep 2023 — 3.0 years ago. It has most likely matured, merged or been wound up, so every figure below is a record of what it did up to that date, not a current price. Do not read it as a fund you can buy today.

Returns

No CAGR is shown for an scheme, and that is deliberate. Its NAV falls by every payout it makes, so a return computed from NAV alone understates it by exactly the amount distributed — and AMFI's daily file carries no payout history to add back. A wrong number wearing the right label is worse than an honest gap. The Growth option of this same fund is the one to compare on returns.

Regular vs Direct — same portfolio, two prices

The same fund, the same manager, the same shares. The only difference is the distributor commission inside the Regular plan's expense ratio — charged every year, on the whole balance.

PlanNAV1y3y5y
Regular (this page) 0.0000
Direct 15,097.5360 192.10% 47.29% 31.06%

The two NAVs are 100.0% apart today. They started life at the same ₹10 — the whole of that gap is what the commission has taken out of the Regular plan since launch.

Everything the NAV says

Computed from 367 published NAVs between 2 Mar 2022 and 1 Sep 2023 — 1.5 years of history. Nothing here is an estimate; it is arithmetic on what the fund actually printed.

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 Regular plan in Short Duration — the middle fund, not a ranking, and a median rather than an average so that one mis-stated scheme cannot move it. As on 4 Sep 2023.

The worst it has been

Deepest fallTime to recoverToday, from its peak
-22.0%12 monthsAt a high

How far below its own record high the fund sat, on every single day it has existed. Flat along the top means it was making new highs; every dip is a stretch where somebody who bought at the wrong moment was down.

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.

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 Short Duration scheme is

Portfolio duration of 1 to 3 years.

The middle of the debt range. A rate rise hurts for a while and is then earned back at the higher rate — which is why the holding period matters more here than the headline return.

Who it suits. Money with a two- to three-year horizon.

How long money should stay. 2 to 3 years.

Questions people ask

What is the NAV of Franklin India Short-Term Income Plan (no. of segregated portfolios- 3) — —?

₹0.0000 as on 4 Sep 2023, 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 Franklin India Short-Term Income Plan (no. of segregated portfolios- 3)?

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 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?

Portfolio duration of 1 to 3 years. The middle of the debt range. A rate rise hurts for a while and is then earned back at the higher rate — which is why the holding period matters more here than the headline return.

How long should money stay in it?

Typically 2 to 3 years. Money with a two- to three-year horizon.
