Benchmark BSE 250 SmallCap (Total Returns Index)
Total expense ratio Regular 1.54% · Direct 0.75% as of Aug 7, 2026 Direct plans cut out distributor commission. Direct vs Regular. Since SEBI's April 2026 rules, the capped headline is the base expense ratio (the fund's recurring management, operating and distribution charge), Regular 1.28% · Direct 0.61%. Brokerage and statutory levies (GST and other charges) sit outside the cap and are charged on actuals, so the total expense ratio above can vary over time.
