Liquid & money market funds

Value barely moves. Suits money you may need soon. Industry-wide this shelf holds ₹9.55 lakh crore across 106 schemes (AMFI, categories: Liquid Fund, Overnight Fund, Money Market Fund).

Worst, median and best describe the spread across the funds on this shelf that have a data page on NYVO — they are not an index, not a benchmark, and no fund is named. The spread is simply the distance between the highest and lowest figure in that window; on shelves that hold more than one kind of asset it reflects that mix as much as anything else. Sample sizes differ by window because newer funds have no five-year record. Past returns do not predict future returns.
