How it compares in its category

Against the Index Funds Regular 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 Motilal Oswal Nifty Metal ETF — —?

₹13.4257 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 Motilal Oswal Nifty Metal ETF?

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?

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.
