About DSP 10 Year Constant Maturity Gilt Fund

DSP 10 Year Constant Maturity Gilt Fund is a gilt fund with 10-year constant duration managed by DSP Mutual Fund. Invest at least 80% in government securities while keeping the portfolio maturity at about 10 years.

The investment objective of the Scheme is to seek to generate returns commensurate with risk from a portfolio of Government Securities such that the Macaulay duration of the portfolio is similar to the 10 Year benchmark government security.

The scheme's stated objective, as published by DSP Mutual Fund.

The NAV (net asset value) is the price of one unit of the fund. It is published by the fund house every business day and changes with the value of the fund's holdings. The Growth option reinvests all gains, so its NAV reflects the fund's total return.

Tax on your gains

Gains on debt fund units bought on or after 1 April 2023 are added to your income and taxed at your slab rate, however long you hold them. Units bought before that date follow the older long-term rules.
