Top Index Funds in India — ranked by FundScore

Index funds passively replicate a benchmark like the Nifty 50 or Sensex instead of paying a manager to pick stocks. Returns equal the index minus a small expense ratio and tracking error — no chance of beating the market, and no risk of badly trailing it either.

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.
