In a separate development, Motilal Oswal Mutual Fund has launched the Motilal Oswal BSE 1000 Index Fund, India’s first index fund tracking the BSE 1000 Total Return Index.
The new fund offer (NFO) is available for subscription till June 19, 2025.
The fund is an open-ended scheme designed to replicate the performance of the BSE 1000 Total Return Index, which includes the top 1,000 listed companies across large, mid, small, and micro-cap segments, representing around 94% of India’s listed market capitalisation.
The fund aims to offer broad diversification across 22 sectors, with the top 10 stocks capped at roughly 33% weight to reduce concentration risk. It also includes exposure to growing micro-cap companies.
