How does the fund work?

- The fund uses an in-house proprietary asset allocation model with a healthy mix of qualitative (fundamentals) and quantitative (valuation) parameters.
- Quantitative parameters would be based on Price to Earnings (P/E) and Price to Book Value (P/BV) of the Nifty 500 Index. The quantitative parameter-based equity allocation will be overlayed with a qualitative assessment of various factors such as macroeconomic trends, policy backdrop, aggregate corporate fundamentals, market liquidity models etc.
- Gross equity exposure in the fund will be maintained between 65% and 100% to enable equity taxation benefits. If the equity allocation, as per the model falls below 65%, the gross equity exposure will be maintained at 65% using equity derivatives.
