Payout versions only 1 fund
These funds now run only versions that pay out their earnings, so the NAV falls after each payout and returns based on NAV would look lower than what investors earned. Returns are not shown, and they are left out of the figures above.
| Fund | NAV (₹) | NAV date |

| ICICI Prudential Short Term Fund - Div. OptionICICI Prudential Mutual Fund · Monthly IDCW | 12.00 | 23 Oct 2026 |
Returns up to 1 year are simple %; 3, 5 and 10 years are yearly averages (compounded). "Worst fall" is the biggest drop from a peak in the last 5 years. A dash means the fund is too young for that period. Past returns do not indicate future returns.
