AIG India Equity Fund

AIG India Equity Fund is an open-ended equity scheme that seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing in stocks across all market capitalization ranges i.e. large, mid and small cap stocks, without having any bias to any sector or a particular style of investing.


This scheme is meant to be a part of an investor’s core long term equity exposure. Under normal market conditions and depending on the fund manager’s views, the assets of the scheme would be invested across stocks having sustainable business models, and potential for capital appreciation representing a broad range of sectors of the economy in order to ensure adequate portfolio diversification.


Scheme Features


Structure An open ended equity scheme with two plans:

Regular Plan
Institutional Plan

Both Plans will have a common portfolio. However, the returns under each Plan are expected to vary having regard to specified expense ratio under the relevant Plan.

The Scheme does not assure or guarantee any returns.
Investment Objective The investment objective of the Scheme is to generate long-term capital appreciation from a diversified portfolio of predominantly equity and equity-related securities including equity derivatives.

However there can be no assurance that the investment objective of the scheme will be realized, as actual market movements may be at variance with anticipated trends.
Asset Allocation Under normal circumstances, it is anticipated that the asset allocation shall be as follows:

Instrument Range of Allocation (% of net assets) Risk Profile
Equity and equity related securities 80% to 100% High
Debt & money market securities/instruments/funds 0% to 20% Low to Medium

The fund would remain fully invested upto 95% in equity and equity related securities and will have only 5% in short term debt and money market instruments to meet short term liquidity requirements of the scheme.

The above Asset Allocation Pattern is only indicative. The investment manager may, in line with the investment objectives of the Scheme, alter the above pattern for a short term period, of upto 90 days, and on defensive considerations, the intention at all times being to protect the interests of the Unit Holders.
