Let's take an example, a mutual fund was priced (NAV) at Rs 100 one year back and fund gave 20% returns in last 1 year. Now for the growth option, today's mutual fund price (NAV) will be 120, so all profit/loss reflects in price of the fund. Whereas for the dividend option some amount out of Rs 20 profit may be given back to investor in form of dividend and today's NAV will be lower than 120.
These mutual funds invest in both Stocks and Debt/Bonds. Allocation between debt and stocks can vary as per market conditions.Click on the category name to view all funds »

Dividend last declared by SBI Long Term Equity Fund - regular Plan -IDCW was in the year 2022. Is there any specific reason given by fund managers for non declaration of dividend. Please let me know.
Hello sir, I have been invested in these funds since 2017. Last SIP was in 2021. As their NAV have grown so I was thinking of switching to other funds with lower NAV.
