What is Net Asset Value (NAV) of a scheme?

Arrow indicating more options

The Net Asset Value (NAV) of a mutual fund scheme applies to the units of that scheme. It is defined as the market value, in Rupees, of one unit of that Mutual Fund Scheme. It is simply the unit's share of the market value of the scheme's holdings of assets. 
NAV is calculated and published as per regulations. Investors can use the NAV to purchase, redeem or track value of units in a Mutual Fund. 
. e.g. If the value of all the securities in a scheme is Rs. 10,000 and the total number of units issued = 1,000 the NAV per unit will be 10,000/1,000 = Rs. 10.
