Top Gilt Funds in India — ranked by FundScore
Gilt funds invest at least 80% in government securities, so credit risk is effectively nil — but interest-rate risk is not. Prices of long-dated gilts swing meaningfully with rate expectations, making these funds far from 'safe' over short holding periods despite the sovereign backing.
The ranking below is a published-formula percentile within this SEBI category (consistency, recency and volatility of returns) — refreshed daily from public AMFI NAV data. It describes past performance; it is not a recommendation to buy or sell.
