Alpha and beta are against the category index. Max fall is the deepest peak-to-trough drop in each fund's own history, so a longer-running fund has had more chances to record a bad one. Click a column to sort. This is a sort, not a ranking, and nothing here is a recommendation.
What a Short Duration scheme is
Portfolio duration of 1 to 3 years.
The middle of the debt range. A rate rise hurts for a while and is then earned back at the higher rate — which is why the holding period matters more here than the headline return.
Who it suits. Money with a two- to three-year horizon.
How long money should stay. 2 to 3 years.
Questions people ask
What is the NAV of Franklin India Short-Term Income Plan (no. of segregated portfolios- 3) — Regular Plan — Institutional Plan Growth?
₹0.0000 as on 9 Nov 2026, from AMFI's daily NAV file. NAV is declared once each business day after markets close, so the figure here is the most recent one published.
What is the difference between the Direct and Regular plan of Franklin India Short-Term Income Plan (no. of segregated portfolios- 3)?
They hold the identical portfolio, run by the same manager. A Regular plan pays a distributor commission out of the fund, inside its expense ratio — commonly 0.5% to 1.2% a year more than Direct. That difference is charged on the whole balance every year, so it compounds. As an illustration, not a forecast: ₹1,00,000 invested for ten years at 12% a year ends at about ₹3.11 lakh, but at 10.5% — a 1.5 percentage-point gap and nothing else changed — it ends at about ₹2.71 lakh, roughly ₹40,000 less. The longer you hold, the wider the gap. Direct is the same fund without the commission.
What does the Growth option mean?
Growth reinvests everything the fund earns back into the NAV. Nothing is paid out, so the NAV rises with returns and you are taxed only when you sell. For anybody who does not need income from the investment, Growth is the simpler and usually the more tax-efficient option.
