Hi, Kindly check the average Cost price of your investment (Avg NAV) to that of the current NAV.  If your cost of investment is less than the latest NAV that means you are making a loss.

Hi, (Based on your PRIVATE reply..) Your cost of purchase is more than the current NAV, that is the reason for your un-realized losses. For ex- If your avg cost is Rs 10 and the current NAV of that fund is say Rs 9, then your un-realized loss is Rs 1 per unit.

Hi, (Based on your Pvt reply). If your avg NAV is more than the Fund's Current NAV, you are making gains right?? Is n't that your money (capital investment) is growing?

I am thinking of investing 1-1.5 lakhs in Diversified mutual fund for a period of 5 years. Could you advice which diversified mutual fund are best to invest in?

Hi, You may consider - Franklin Prima plus fund.

Hi, It would be the average of all your Cost prices.  Ex : If you buy 1 unit at Rs 10 NAV, and another 1 unit at NAV of Rs 12, then your average cost price would be (10+12)/2 = Rs 11.
