RESEARCH & NEWS
Portfolio reviews, strategy perspectives and developments across India’s SIF market.
The exit-load period for all existing iSIF schemes has been reduced to one month for investments logged from September 4, 2026 onward.
Every SIF with a full June return finished positive. The average gain was 2.27%, while WSIF Equity Ex-Top 100 led the tracked universe at 6.07%.
Invesco's Summit Equity Long-Short Fund completed its NFO and moved to allotment on July 22. The real test now is portfolio deployment, not the ₹10 launch NAV.
JioBlackRock Prism and Invesco Summit arrived within days of each other, but one is a Risk Band 2 hybrid strategy and the other is an equity long-short fund.
New SIFs often begin near a ₹10 NAV, while older funds trade above or below it. That price difference does not tell you which fund is cheaper or better.
Returns alone can hide risk. Compare category, net exposure, drawdown, benchmark alpha, TER, exit load and redemption frequency before shortlisting a SIF.
The Wealth Company Mutual Fund opens its NFO for two SIF schemes — equity long-short and ex-top 100 — between April 15 and 29, 2026. First SIF from the AMC.
Franklin Templeton India launches its first SIF — Sapphire Equity Long-Short. The global asset manager's first foray into the new SEBI category.
