NJ Value Fund
Direct–Growth is the plan and option we treat as this fund's main page, so search engines are pointed there. Everything below is this filing's own data.
Fund basics
Everything the NAV says
Computed from 32 published NAVs between 3 Aug 2026 and 16 Sep 2026 — 0.1 years of history. Nothing here is an estimate; it is arithmetic on what the fund actually printed.
How it has moved
Return over time (%)
| Fund name | 1M | 3M | 6M | 1Y | 3Y | 5Y | 7Y | 10Y | Since launch |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NJ Value Fund Regular | -5.34 | — | — | — | — | — | — | — | — |
| Nifty 500 benchmark | 0.87 | 4.31 | 2.15 | 5.20 | 12.49 | 11.41 | — | — | 15.49 |
| Value / Contra category median · 25 funds | — | — | — | -1.47 | 11.75 | 11.42 | — | 13.56 | — |
Anything over a year is annualised (CAGR); shorter windows are absolute. The benchmark row is the index fund named below, priced daily by AMFI like every other scheme here. The category row is the median Regular plan in Value / Contra — the middle fund, not a ranking, and a median rather than an average so that one mis-stated scheme cannot move it. As on 25 Sep 2026.
Risk measures
| Fund name | Volatility | Sharpe | Sortino | Beta | Alpha | Max fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NJ Value Fund Regular | — | — | — | — | — | -6.77 |
| Nifty 500 benchmark | 17.16 | 0.35 | 0.47 | — | — | -37.31 |
Risk-free rate 6.5%. Beta and alpha need an index, so the benchmark's own row leaves them blank.
The worst it has been
| Deepest fall | Time to recover | Today, from its peak |
|---|---|---|
| -6.8% | — | -6.5% |
A drawdown is the fall from a previous high to the low that followed it. It is the number that decides whether somebody stays invested — a fund can have an excellent ten-year return and still have been unbearable to hold in year four.
How it compares in its category
Against the Value / Contra Regular schemes with the highest three-year return. Same category, same plan — the only comparison that means anything. The list re-sorts itself as returns move; it is an ordering by one number, not a view on which fund anyone should hold.

Alpha and beta are against Nifty 500. 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 Value / Contra scheme is
At least 65% in equity, following a value or contrarian strategy.
Buying what the market dislikes. These funds can lag for years — sometimes many years — and then make it back quickly. Judging one over three years usually judges the market's mood rather than the manager.
Who it suits. Patient investors who understand that being early looks identical to being wrong.
How long money should stay. 7 to 10 years.
Questions people ask
What is the NAV of NJ Value Fund — Regular Plan — Growth Option?
₹9.4800 as on 25 Sep 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 NJ Value Fund?
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: on ₹1,00,000 held ten years a gap of 1.5 percentage points is roughly ₹1.4 lakh of ending value. 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.
What kind of scheme is this?
