Over the last 12 months, the top ICICI Prudential scheme is **ICICI Prudential Silver ETF FOF - Direct Plan - Growth** with 151.95%. 1-year numbers are noisy; cross-check with 3Y and 5Y rolling returns before drawing conclusions.

Like every AMC, ICICI Prudential offers both Direct and Regular plans for most schemes. Direct plans charge a lower expense ratio (no broker commission) — typically 0.5-1% lower per year. Over 10+ years that gap compounds into a 5-10% terminal-wealth difference. ProfitGuruOnline lists both; the Direct plan is the default in our category rankings.

Expense ratios on ICICI Prudential's schemes vary by category — equity funds typically charge 0.5-1.5% (Direct) or 1.5-2.5% (Regular); debt funds 0.2-0.8% (Direct). For the exact current ratio on a specific scheme, check the AMC's monthly factsheet.

Mutual funds are regulated by SEBI under the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996. Investor money is held by a separately constituted Trustee, segregated from the AMC's own books — so the AMC's solvency doesn't affect your units. Market risk on the scheme's underlying assets is yours; AMC default risk is essentially nil.

Tax follows the SEBI classification of each scheme, not the AMC. Equity schemes (≥65% equity): 12.5% LTCG over 12 months on gains exceeding ₹1.25 L/FY, 20% STCG under 12 months. Debt schemes acquired post-Apr-2023: slab rate. Hybrid: depends on actual equity allocation. Check our per-scheme FAQ for the exact treatment.

Yes — every AMC supports switch transactions between its own schemes. A switch is treated as a redemption from the source scheme (taxable event) and a fresh purchase in the target. Use it judiciously; don't churn just because one of your funds underperforms for a quarter.

Three paths: (1) directly on the AMC's website (lowest cost, Direct plan); (2) via MF Central or any RTA's investor portal (CAMS, KFintech); (3) through a broker / app like Coin, Groww (note: these often default you to Regular plans). For tracking your existing SIPs irrespective of channel, you can use our portfolio tracker.

ICICI Prudential publishes NAVs every Indian business day, typically by 21:00 IST. AMFI consolidates and pushes them via the NAVAll feed. ProfitGuruOnline ingests the AMFI feed nightly and updates every scheme's metrics within an hour.

Every scheme is ranked within its SEBI category against same-category, same-plan-type funds. We compute point-to-point CAGR, rolling-window stats, SIP-on-fund backtests, and risk metrics (volatility, Sharpe, drawdown) — then assign quartile and decile bands. Each ICICI Prudential scheme's standing relative to its category peers is visible on its detail page.

NAVs are pulled directly from AMFI's published feed (the same source the AMC files to). Category classification follows SEBI's October-2017 categorisation circular. We compute all returns, risk metrics and SIP backtests in-house from the daily NAVs — no third-party paid feeds. Updates run nightly after the AMFI publish.
