Returns are from NAVs (after expenses, before tax); 3Y and 5Y are annualised. Rolling figures use every business-day start date in the scheme's history; beat-rate is the share of 3-year windows ahead of Nifty 500 (proxy: Motilal Oswal Nifty 500 Index Fund, price return). Std dev is annualised over 36 months. AUM is the whole scheme (all plans) and TER is for the plan shown, both as disclosed to AMFI. "n/a" means the scheme's history is too short or the data is still loading. Listed alphabetically; no order of preference is implied. Full definitions: MFIC methodology.
