Choice International Limited has announced through its sponsored entity Choice Mutual Fund the launch of two new investment products aimed at enabling disciplined household investing. The Choice Nifty 50 Index Fund and Choice Nifty Next 50 Index Fund are designed to help investors build structured long-term equity exposure through a simple framework that balances growth and risk management.

New Fund Offer Details

The New Fund Offer (NFO) for both schemes presents investors with an opportunity to participate in India's equity markets through index-based investing.

Choice Nifty 50 Index Fund - Core Equity Exposure

The Choice Nifty 50 Index Fund offers exposure to India's top 50 blue-chip companies, representing some of the country's largest and most liquid listed firms. The fund is positioned as a disciplined, SIP-led investment option that allows investors to participate in the growth of leading Indian companies while benefiting from sectoral diversification. The Nifty 50 represents nearly 44% of the free-float market capitalisation of stocks listed on the National Stock Exchange, making it a core building block for equity portfolios.

According to Ajay Kejriwal, CEO of Choice Mutual Fund, the focus is on creating simple, transparent and disciplined investment solutions that allow investors to participate in India's long-term growth story. The investment objective of the scheme is to generate returns that are commensurate with the performance of the NIFTY 50 Index (TRI), subject to tracking errors.

Choice Nifty Next 50 Index Fund - Growth Layer

The Choice Nifty Next 50 Index Fund provides exposure to the next tier of emerging large-cap companies that have the potential to become future market leaders. Together with the Nifty 50 Index Fund, it enables investors to gain diversified exposure to India's top 100 companies, offering a balanced approach to long-term equity participation.

Manish Jain, Deputy CEO of Choice Mutual Fund, highlighted that many households invest across multiple schemes without a clear framework, often leading to broken SIPs or withdrawals from long-term investments. The investment philosophy brings together core market exposure through the Nifty 50 and growth potential through the Nifty Next 50, enabling investors to build a more resilient and goal-oriented portfolio.

Investment Objectives and Risk Profile

Both funds carry specific investment objectives and risk characteristics that investors should consider:

Both schemes come with the standard disclaimer that there is no assurance or guarantee that the investment objective will be achieved. The risk classification is based on internal assessment of scheme characteristics and may vary post NFO when actual investments are made.
