What HDFC Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-sec 70:30 Index Fund will invest in
The scheme information document states the objective as: “Passive investment in equity and equity related securities and debt securities replicating the composition of the Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-Sec 70:30 Index (TRI), subject to tracking error.”
How it compares with existing Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-sec 70:30 index funds and ETFs
- 2 index funds already track the Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-sec 70:30, according to AMFI's NAV list.
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.
- Cost and tracking error decide the difference. Every fund on the same index holds the same shares, so the fund with the lower expense ratio and the smaller tracking error usually delivers more. A new fund's tracking error is unknown until it has run for a while; existing Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-sec 70:30 index funds and ETFs already have a record.
- Overlap with what you already own. If you already hold a fund on the same or a broader index, a new one may add little: the underlying shares can be largely the same.
- 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.
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. Reopens for continuous sale and repurchase within 5 working days of allotment.
Once a fund has a record, Genvest Research shows its returns against its benchmark, volatility and drawdowns.
