What the manager did last month

Between the filings of 31 May 2026 and 31 Jul 2026. A position grows because the manager bought or because the price rose; only the share count separates them.

Debt: bills, CDs and commercial paper	₹8,012 cr	₹7,528 cr	−₹484 cr

The list above is stocks and fund units. Treasury bills, repo and money-market lines roll over every month by design — they are not decisions, so they are totalled here rather than listed as activity.

A ₹10,000 monthly SIP over five years

Invested	Value	Gain	XIRR
₹600,000	₹711,724	₹111,724	6.77%

XIRR, not CAGR — a SIP's money arrives over sixty months, so each instalment has been invested for a different length of time.
