FAQ
- What does the FY 2025-26 report measure?
- Compounded return over the twelve months April 2025 through March, using SEBI monthly 1M TWRR. Only strategies reporting all twelve months are ranked.
- Why are some full-year returns negative?
- FY 2025-26 had a median of -1.4%. Full financial years capture drawdowns as well as rallies, so a real spread of outcomes — including losses — is expected and useful.
- Does the top rank mean it is the best PMS?
- Not on its own. Full-year winners can be high-beta strategies that also fall hardest in bad years. Compare across the 3-year and all-time boards and check drawdowns before drawing conclusions.
- Is this investment advice?
- No. KnowYourPMS publishes independent, SEBI-sourced research with no recommendations or commissions.
