Overview

The Indian Mutual Fund API gives you free access to the complete history of all mutual funds registered in India. You can look up NAV (Net Asset Value) history, scheme details, and fund metadata without any authentication. It is an excellent choice for beginners building personal finance or investment tracking apps.
