The Nifty50 Value 20 Index or the NV 20 represents the 20 most liquid value blue chip stocks selected from the Nifty 50 index. The performance of this index is analysed and compared with the performance of actively managed large-cap mutual funds.
Nifty50 Value 20 Index Selection Criterion
The 50 stocks that are part of the Nifty are arranged in ascending order as per the following:

Stocks with high ROCE (return on capital employed) and Div Yield receive a higher rank with weights of 0.4 and 0.1 respectively.
The final rank is assigned by combining the above the two rules and the top 20 stocks comprise the Nifty50 Value 20 Index.

Nifty50 Value 20 Index vs Nifty 50 Total Returns Index
The NV 20 (price index) has comfortably beat the Nifty 50 with dividend reinvested. Therefore, the NV 20 is much sterner mutual fund benchmark for large cap mutual funds (and imo perhaps for equity-oriented balanced funds too)
Large-cap fund screener indexed to NV20
I have made a large cap screener with returns, downside capture and upside capture measured with respect to the NV 20. This sheet was possible only because of the awesome VBA skills of Pranav Date who wrote a code to match VR fund name and category with AMFI code. His work has paved the way for some exciting developments. More on this soon.
Regular readers may recall that similar batch analysis but with individual benchmarks for the mid-cap category and balanced funds (wrt Nifty TRI) was published earlier.
Downside Capture Ratio of all Mid-cap Equity Mutual Funds
CRISIL Balanced Index: a benchmark for balanced mutual funds
The batch analyser for large cap funds (Excel windows) and the results sheet (compatible with all spreadsheets) is available below.
Here is a sample screen with funds with a greater 7Y lump sum return than the NV20. This was randomly chosen.
You can notice (click on the image to enlarge) that these funds have also beat the NV 20 for lower durations and in SIP and lump sum mode.
Consistent outperformance wrt NV 20 combined with low downside capture ratio and/or capture ratio > 1 can be one way to select large cap mutual funds.
The NV 20 TRI is not available in the public domain. When it is, it will be a better benchmark.
You can consider using this guide for mutual Fund Screening with Downside and Upside Capture Ratios

The NV 20 is part of the strategic indices from the NSE (quant based and not cap based). I shall gradually include the key indices in the mutual fund analysis sheets.

Both the boy and girl versions of "Chinchu Gets a Superpower".
Most investor problems stem from a lack of poor decision-making. We made bad decisions and money mistakes when we started earning, and we spent years undoing them. Why should our children go through the same pain? What is this book about? As parents, what if we had to groom one ability in our children that matters not only for money management and investing but for every aspect of life? My answer: Sound decision-making. So, in this book, we meet Chinchu, who is about to turn 10. The story follows what he wants for his birthday and how his parents plan it, while also teaching him key ideas about decision-making and money management. What readers say! 
Feedback from a young reader after reading Chinchu Gets a Superpower!
Must-read book even for adults! This is something that every parent should teach their kids right from a young age. The importance of money management and decision-making based on their wants and needs. Very nicely written in simple terms. - Arun.
