About Franklin India Overnight Fund

Franklin India Overnight Fund is a overnight fund managed by Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund. Invest in securities maturing in one day. Extremely low risk and returns close to the overnight interest rate; used to park money for a few days.

The Scheme intends to provide reasonable income along with high liquidity by investing in overnight securities having maturity of 1 business day.

The scheme's stated objective, as published by Franklin Templeton 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.
