Best Debt PMS in India

Updated October 2026 · Data from SEBI PMS disclosures · 20 schemes

Debt PMS schemes invest in fixed-income securities - government bonds, corporate bonds, and commercial paper - and target stable, lower-volatility returns. They suit investors who want predictable income or a conservative allocation within a broader HNI portfolio.

We rank debt PMS by 3-year return because debt strategies take longer to show their edge and shorter periods can be distorted by interest rate moves. Schemes need at least ₹10 Cr AUM and 3 years of disclosure history to appear on this list.

Remember that since April 2023, debt PMS gains are taxed at your income-tax slab rate, not LTCG. Factor that into net returns before comparing.
