Fund Explorer
Pick a category, choose a lens, and see funds sorted on open public data - every ranking showing its inputs, formula and as-of date. The lens is the idea: there is no single universal fund choice, so we never claim one. We rank transparently and let you decide.
No stars - no editorial superlative claims - no buy/sell calls - no hidden methodology. Data as of 2026-07-09. AMFI is the official NAV source; mfapi.in is the ingestion mirror.

The Lenses
Risk-Adjusted Returns
Sorts a category by how much return each fund delivered for the risk it took (its volatility). It rewards steadier compounding over funds that merely rode a rally.
How it ranks: Sharpe (3Y) = (3-year annualised return − risk-free rate) ÷ annualised volatility. Funds are then ranked, highest Sharpe first, within their SEBI category.
Limits: Backward-looking. A high past Sharpe does not guarantee future risk-adjusted returns, and volatility is only one definition of risk.
Track Record
Sorts a category by how frequently a fund beat its peers across many overlapping 3-year periods, rewarding repeatable performance over a single lucky stretch.
How it ranks: Consistency = the share of rolling 3-year windows (monthly start dates) in which the fund's annualised return exceeded the category's median 3-year return. Ranked highest-consistency first.
Limits: Past performance is NOT indicative of future results. A strong record can break the moment the manager, mandate or market regime changes.
Downside Protection
Sorts a category by downside capture versus an equal-weight category composite: below 100 means the fund fell less than its peers in down months. Research on fund selection rates downside behaviour and consistency above raw return.
How it ranks: Downside capture = (geometric mean fund return in composite-down months divided by geometric mean composite return in those months) x 100, over the trailing 36 months vs the category composite (proxy). Ranked lowest first.
Limits: The benchmark is an equal-weight category composite (proxy), not an official TRI. Backward-looking; capture behaviour can change with the manager or regime.
Methodology & Disclaimer
Rankings describe public data; they are not forecasts or recommendations. Every fund is ranked only against peers in the same SEBI category, using Direct-plan, Growth-option NAVs. Figures are computed from daily NAV history and refreshed on a schedule - the as-of date is shown on every list. AMFI is the official NAV source; mfapi.in is the ingestion mirror. The universe is current schemes from the public list, so merged/closed schemes are absent and long-horizon consistency figures carry survivorship bias. This is educational information, not personalized investment advice. Mutual fund investments are subject to market risks; read all scheme-related documents carefully. Consult a SEBI-registered investment adviser before investing.
