The Liquid Fund has the most complete return data of the five. It delivered a 6-month return of 7.17% and a 1-year return of 6.59%, with volatility of 0.23% and a maximum drawdown of just -0.01% — figures typical of the liquid fund category.
JioBlackRock Overnight Fund
The Overnight Fund posted a 6-month return of 5.27%, consistent with the nature of short-duration overnight instruments. It shows very low volatility at 0.13% and a maximum drawdown of 0.00%.
JioBlackRock Equity Funds: Large Cap, Flexi Cap, and Nifty 50 Index
The Large Cap Fund, Flexi Cap Fund, and Nifty 50 Index Fund are still too new to report 6-month or 1-year returns. Maximum drawdowns recorded so far are -2.08%, -1.70%, and -1.89% respectively, reflecting normal early-stage market exposure.
