WhiteOak Capital Ultra Short Term Fund
Fund basics
Returns
No CAGR is shown for an Weekly IDCW Payout / Reinvestment Option 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.
Direct vs Regular — 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.
| Plan | NAV | 1y | 3y | 5y |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct (this page) | 1,004.8482 | — | — | — |
| Regular | 1,006.2616 | — | — | — |
The two NAVs are 0.1% 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.

A step out from liquid funds for slightly more return and slightly more movement. Still short enough that a rate change barely registers.

Questions people ask
What is the NAV of WhiteOak Capital Ultra Short Term Fund — Direct Plan — Weekly IDCW Payout / Reinvestment Option?
₹1,004.8482 as on 25 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 WhiteOak Capital Ultra Short Term 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 Weekly IDCW Payout / Reinvestment Option 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.
