What is a Nifty 100 Low Volatility 30 Index Fund?

A Nifty Low Volatility 30 Index Fund is an open-ended scheme. As an index fund, this fund tracks the Nifty100 low volatility 30 index and attempts to replicate its performance. This index tracks the performance of the 30 least volatile stocks listed on the National Stock Exchange.

However, a Nifty 100 Low Volatility 30 fund invests in well-established and large companies, the growth potential of the fund may potentially be reduced which may potentially impact returns.
