Nippon India Nifty IT Index Fund
This fund aims to deliver investment returns in line with the total returns of the Nifty IT Index's securities before expenses, though it's important to note that there is no guaranteed assurance for achieving the investment objective.
The scheme allows for sale, switch-in, and redemption on every working day.
The benchmark for performance evaluation is the Nifty IT TRI.
There are no entry or exit loads, and the asset allocation primarily includes Nifty IT Index securities (95-100%) and 0-5% in cash, equivalents, money market instruments, and more.
Regarding fees and expenses, there is no entry load, and the exit load is nil.
The expense ratio will be updated by the asset management company (AMC) on its website at least three working days before any change, Nippon India Mutual Fund said.
Investors have the flexibility to switch between schemes based on their changing investment needs.
