Official AMFI NAVs as of 18 Sep 2026, Regular plan · Growth. Returns are absolute point-to-point changes, not annualised, and most SIFs are less than a year old — check each fund’s age before comparing. Past performance may or may not be sustained in future. Any highlight marks the higher or lower figure on that row; it is arithmetic, not a rating or a recommendation. Missing values show as “—”, never estimated. This table refreshes in your browser with the latest official figures.

Do they hold the same stocks?

Real portfolio overlap, computed from each fund’s disclosed monthly holdings — long positions only.

Which is “better” depends on the period you look at and, more importantly, on your own goals, horizon and risk appetite — past performance does not predict future returns.
