Methodology — How we picked these

This list is curated by MintByte’s research team based on a multi-factor evaluation:

  • Risk-adjusted performance — Sharpe / Sortino / max drawdown vs category.
  • Cost efficiency — TER, transaction costs, exit-load impact on net returns.
  • Quality of disclosures — fund-manager tenure, AMC governance, regulatory record.
  • Investor-fit screens — NRI eligibility, lock-in, minimum investment, liquidity.
