Direct-Growth plans. Returns are from AMFI daily NAVs, annualised for three years, and leave out figures distorted by unit splits.
Other funds’ returns do not tell you how this fund will do. They show what the category or index has delivered and how far results have varied between funds.
What to check before investing in this NFO
- The ₹10 price is not a discount. Units start at ₹10 only to set the unit count. Returns depend on how the fund's investments move, in percentage terms, exactly as for an existing fund.
- There is no track record yet. A new fund has no returns of its own to judge. The fund manager's other schemes, and how existing equity savings funds have done over several years, are the closest guide.
- Overlap with what you already own. If you already hold equity savings funds, or a flexi cap or large cap fund, check how much this fund's likely holdings would repeat them.
- Direct plan and costs. The direct plan pays no distributor commission, so its expense ratio is lower than the regular plan’s. Over many years the difference compounds.
- Exit load. 1.00% - If the investment is redeemed or switched out on or before 30 days from the date of allotment of units. No exit load will be charged if investment is redeemed or switched out 30 days after the date of allotment of units.
After the NFO closes
Units are allotted after the offer closes. The fund then publishes a daily NAV and reopens for regular purchases, SIPs and redemptions.
Once a fund has a record, Genvest Research shows its returns against its benchmark, volatility and drawdowns.
Questions people ask
The NFO closes on 2 November 2026. Fund houses can extend or close an NFO early, so check the fund house's notices close to the date.
The minimum is ₹5,000 during the NFO, according to AMFI's listing. Units are offered at ₹10 each.
No. The ₹10 starting price only sets the unit count. What you earn depends on the percentage change in the fund's investments, which is the same whether a unit costs ₹10 or ₹500.
1.00% - If the investment is redeemed or switched out on or before 30 days from the date of allotment of units. No exit load will be charged if investment is redeemed or switched out 30 days after the date of allotment of units.
That depends on what you already own and why you would add this fund. A new fund has no record of its own, so compare it with existing equity savings funds: their costs, their returns over several years and how much they overlap with funds you hold. This page explains the facts; it is not a recommendation.
