Equity Savings category average is a chain-linked equal-weight index of 23 funds, based at 100 in 2014 and moving each day by the average return of the funds trading that day. Equity Savings funds hold roughly a third in directional equity, the rest in arbitrage and debt. They are taxed as equity while carrying far less equity risk, which is the point of the category and the reason these returns sit well below equity ones. It is built from Regular-plan NAVs, so a Direct-plan fund is being measured against peers that still pay a distributor commission and will tend to look better by roughly that margin. Funds that closed or merged away are not included, so the average reflects those that survived and is biased upward.
