Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There have been no substantial changes in AUM ranking, expense ratio or even the number of stocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only three funds \u2013 ICICI, Franklin and Motilal Oswal have beaten the benchmark this month. The number remains the same for the one year performance with only HDFC, ICICI and Franklin India making the cut. More so, four of the funds actually have negative returns in the last one year as compared to the 6.68{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} that the benchmark has delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is an organic swap between Cement & Cement Products being dethroned by Telecom in the Franklin fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Motilal Oswal, there is quite a shuffle thanks to two big stock exits \u2013 2.70{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} stake in Tata Consultancy Services and 3.56{76b947d7ef5b3424fa3b69da76ad2c33c34408872c6cc7893e56cc055d3cd886} stake in HDFC Life Insurance.
