Reliance Infrastructure Mutual Fund NFO

The Reliance Infrastructure Mutual Fund will primarily invest in shares of infrastructure companies in India. It will have at least 65% of its assets invested in shares of infrastructure companies and the balance in debt instruments. It will also invest in derivative instruments for hedging and rebalancing purposes.

The fund aims to capitalize on the fact that the infrastructure sector in India is lagging investments and is a focus area for the government to allow the economy to continue on its growth path and add momentum to the economic development.

The fund will invest in infrastructure and infrastructure related companies, but there is one thing that you need to be aware of.

Banks, financial institutions and such, which lend to this sector, also come under this category and the mutual fund may invest in such companies also. This is not a good or bad thing – just something to keep in mind. Most investors don’t equate a financing company with infrastructure and so are sometimes surprised when they hear that their infrastructure mutual fund holds State Bank of India or some other such bank or finance company.

Here is a list of sectors that the fund may invest in (from their prospectus): At first glance it may occur to you that the Reliance mutual fund will invest most of its assets in Airport, then Banks, then Cement and so on (which is what I felt), but this is not true. This is just a list of indicative sectors and is not in any particular order.

  1. Airports
  2. Banks, Financial Institutions and Term Lending institutions.
  3. Cement
  4. Coal
  5. Construction
  6. Electrical and Electric Component
  7. Engineering
  8. Energy
  9. Industry Capital Goods
  10. Metals and Minerals
  11. Ports
  12. Power and Power equipment
  13. Road and Railways
  14. Telecom
  15. Transportation
  16. Urban Infrastructure
  17. Mining
  18. Aluminum
