Market context from Integrato Market Intelligence

This scheme invests mainly in the market below, which is also close to how many of them are benchmarked. Where that market stands today:

21,857.75 −0.97%
NSE close, 1 Oct 2026
  • P/E 21.6: higher than 1% of days since 2023 (median 24.3)
  • 1Y −3.9% · 3Y +8.9% p.a. · 5Y +8.6% p.a. (index fund NAV, after costs)
  • −9.3% from its 52-week high

Index levels and P/E: NSE daily index closing values; gold and silver: IBJA rates; returns: growth NAV of an index fund or ETF tracking the market (AMFI), so they are after that fund's costs. Context only: a market's level or valuation does not tell you how any scheme will perform. Explore all markets.

Direct or Regular for this scheme?

The Regular plan's expense ratio is 3.72% a year and the Direct plan's 2.33%, a gap of 1.39%. On a ₹25,000 monthly SIP for 20 years (illustration at 12% a year before costs) the gap adds up to about ₹26,17,055.

With the Regular plan, that cost pays a distributor to help you plan, choose and review funds, and stay invested when markets fall. Whether it is worth it depends on how much of that you will do yourself.

Objective: The investment objective of the Scheme is to seek to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing in stocks showing strong momentum. Momentum stocks are such that exhibit relatively superior price momentum – based on the phenomenon that stocks which have performed well in the past relative to other stocks (winners) continue to perform well in the future, and stocks that have performed relatively poorly (losers) continue to perform poorly. The portfolio of stocks will be selected, weighted and rebalanced using proprietary screens. However, there is no assurance or guarantee that the investment objective of the Scheme will be achieved. The scheme does not assure or guarantee any returns.
Stated asset allocation: Equity and Equity related Instruments related to momentum theme* : 80% - 100% of total assets, Money Market Instruments, Other Liquid Instruments and other assets as permitted by SEBI: 0%-20% of total assets, Units issued by InvITs: 0% - 10% of total assets. *Our proprietary momentum model identifies certain price patterns in the historical price performance from the defined universe to shortlist stocks. Furthermore, volatility of returns, relative strength and liquidity conditions are also considered to rank stocks in the order of preference. Please refer the Scheme Information Document for more details.
