How this report is built
- Source. NAVs come from AMFI's official daily NAV file — the same numbers every fund house publishes. 7,809 plans priced on 31 July 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; 1 one-day moves beyond ±15% were treated as data errors.
- 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

International funds were the strongest category, averaging +0.85% across 106 plans. Gold & Silver was the weakest at −0.24%.
How many mutual fund schemes rose on 31 July 2026?
1,761 of 1,950 equity plans rose and 183 fell. Across all 3,708 comparable plans — including debt and liquid funds, which accrue interest almost every day — 3,120 rose and 535 fell. IDCW (dividend) plans are excluded because a payout lowers the NAV without being a loss.
Which mutual fund gained the most on 31 July 2026?

Which sector funds did best on 31 July 2026?
Auto & Mobility funds led sector and thematic schemes, averaging +1.29% across 7 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.
