We have recently improved the implementation of how returns metrics are shown across smallcase app, website and broker platforms. These improvements are aimed to bring uniformity in returns metrics, align with industry standards and ensure they are true to label. This will help investors make better & informed investment decisions..

The below table illustrates the old vs new implementation.
