How many mutual funds invest in Manufacturing in India?

MFIC finds 11 actively managed sectoral or thematic schemes and 7 index funds or ETFs whose names point to Manufacturing (Direct plans; ETFs have a single plan), from AMFI's daily NAV file dated 27 Oct 2026.

Does every scheme on this page hold only Manufacturing stocks?

Not necessarily. MFIC groups schemes by the sector or theme in the scheme name. SEBI requires sectoral and thematic schemes to keep at least 80% in their stated sector or theme, but the exact holdings come from each fund house's monthly portfolio, which MFIC does not yet read. Check the latest factsheet before relying on a scheme's exposure.

Are sector funds riskier than diversified equity funds?

A sector fund depends on one part of the economy, so its returns usually swing more than a diversified fund's and can lag for long periods. The volatility and maximum drawdown columns on this page show how much each scheme has moved in the past; past movements do not predict future ones.
