Where does valueresearchonline.com get its Mutual Fund data from?

Especially

  1. Updated Category performances
    https://www.valueresearchonline.com/funds/fund-category/

  2. Updated portfolio of all Mutual Funds.
    https://www.valueresearchonline.com/funds/15868/icici-prudential-large-mid-cap-fund-direct-plan#fund-portfolio

Is there an API for such anywhere?

If I’m not wrong, VR sells data. There are other MF data providers like Morningstar, CRISIL, Accord, Dion, Ace MF etc. But to answer your question, the source data is disclosures from the AMCs. These guys aggregate the data and sell it.

@VijayNair , not sure if Valueresearchonline uses them or not, but they do have very good research database regarding Mutual Funds -

Products intended for Mutual Funds / AMC

Our financial products of Equity and Mutual Fund applications help the Mutual Funds / Asset Management companies to carry out the desire research and helps to take right business decisions.

There are few other such companies as well, which provide the database necessary for doing such research work.

@VijayNair

Were you able to find out some vendor which provides proper API access with reasonable cost?

I am not being able to send you any DM, my gmail id is same as my profile name, could you please contact me there?

Thanks and regards

@VijayNair did you find any way to get holdings for free?

I wanted to make a script that analysed my own holdings for overlap etc. Very low usage and will only run once a month so no point of using a paid API

Thanks. I have previously used these sites but I was looking to do some more analysis on when my MFs buys some stocks. Just for playing with the data. Wanted to automate it in a way too by emailing a report every month
