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 Aggressive Hybrid scheme is

65–80% equity, the rest in debt.

One fund that holds both, rebalanced for you. The debt portion cushions falls without giving up much of the rise, and because the fund rebalances internally there is no tax event when it does.

Who it suits. A first investment, or somebody who wants equity exposure with the edges taken off.

How long money should stay. 5 years or more.

Questions people ask

What is the NAV of PGIM India Aggressive Hybrid Equity Fund — Direct Plan — Direct IDCW?

₹25.0300 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 PGIM India Aggressive Hybrid Equity 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 Direct 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?

65–80% equity, the rest in debt. One fund that holds both, rebalanced for you. The debt portion cushions falls without giving up much of the rise, and because the fund rebalances internally there is no tax event when it does.

How long should money stay in it?

Typically 5 years or more. A first investment, or somebody who wants equity exposure with the edges taken off.
