How this report is built
- Source. NAVs come from AMFI's official daily NAV file — the same numbers every fund house publishes. 8,670 plans priced on 27 October 2026.
- One-day change. Each plan is compared with its own previous NAV from the last five days. A plan with no NAV in that window shows no change rather than a misleading one.
- Categories. Plans are grouped by SEBI category (both the original and the revised AMFI names), with index funds split into equity and debt trackers by name.
- Exclusions. IDCW (dividend) plans are left out of averages and lists, because a payout lowers the NAV without being a loss.
- Not advice. This is a record of what happened in one session. A fund's one-day move says almost nothing about whether it suits you.
Frequently asked questions
Which mutual fund category performed best on 27 October 2026?
Small Cap funds were the strongest category, averaging +1.94% across 73 plans. Gold & Silver was the weakest at −0.83%.
How many mutual fund schemes rose on 27 October 2026?
1,735 of 2,029 equity plans rose and 288 fell. Across all 4,054 comparable plans — including debt and liquid funds, which accrue interest almost every day — 3,272 rose and 677 fell. IDCW (dividend) plans are excluded because a payout lowers the NAV without being a loss.
Which mutual fund gained the most on 27 October 2026?
Invesco India Pharma and Healthcare Fund - Direct Plan - Growth (Sectoral / Thematic) rose +3.62%, the largest one-day gain among open-ended direct plans.
Which sector funds did best on 27 October 2026?
Healthcare & Pharma funds led sector and thematic schemes, averaging +2.29% across 18 schemes.
When is mutual fund NAV updated?
Fund houses publish NAVs through AMFI every business day, by 11 PM IST. Some overseas fund-of-funds publish a day later. This report is rebuilt from AMFI's NAV file each evening once it updates.
Why did my fund's NAV fall when the market rose?
Common reasons: the fund holds a different mix of stocks than the index; it is an IDCW plan and the NAV dropped by the payout on the record date; or it is a debt fund reacting to bond yields rather than the stock market.
What is the difference between direct and regular plans?
Both hold exactly the same portfolio. A regular plan pays a distributor commission out of a higher expense ratio, so its NAV grows slightly slower. Lists on this page use direct plans, one row per scheme.
