Direct plan where it has 3+ years of history, otherwise Regular. Rolling columns use the plan with the longer history and cover each fund's own history (see “Data from”), so they are not comparable across funds with different start dates. “Ahead of Nifty Smallcap 250 index fund” is the share of rolling SIPs (5-year where that spans 3+ years of start dates, else 3-year) in which the fund beat a Nifty Smallcap 250 index fund on the same dates; it only covers months since that index fund launched. Ordering is by historical figures only — it is not a ranking of which fund to buy. Past performance does not indicate future returns.
