How this report is built

  • Source. NAVs come from AMFI's official daily NAV file — the same numbers every fund house publishes. 8,479 plans priced on 7 August 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 7 August 2026?

Gold & Silver funds were the strongest category, averaging +1.60% across 130 plans. Large Cap was the weakest at −0.21%.

How many mutual fund schemes rose on 7 August 2026?

1,027 of 1,966 equity plans rose and 884 fell. Across all 3,946 comparable plans — including debt and liquid funds, which accrue interest almost every day — 2,566 rose and 1,226 fell. IDCW (dividend) plans are excluded because a payout lowers the NAV without being a loss.

Which mutual fund gained the most on 7 August 2026?

DSP World Gold Mining Overseas Equity Omni FoF - Direct Plan - Growth (International) rose +6.86%, the largest one-day gain among open-ended direct plans.

Which sector funds did best on 7 August 2026?

Auto & Mobility funds led sector and thematic schemes, averaging +0.86% 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.
