About HDFC Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-Sec 70:30 Index Fund

This Fund aims to benefit from the growth potential of Equity with the stability of Debt, it is an open-ended Equity Oriented Hybrid Index Fund that tracks the Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-Sec 70:30 Index (TRI). It sits in the equity-oriented hybrid index fund category and aims to deliver returns that correspond to the performance of this index, before fees and expenses and subject to tracking error, by holding the same securities in broadly the same proportion as the index.

The index blends two asset classes in a fixed 70:30 ratio:

The index is made up of:

  • 70% Equity - the Nifty LargeMidcap 250 Index, which gives diversified exposure to 100 Large Cap and 150 Mid Cap companies, carrying the growth potential of the equity market
  • 30% debt - the Nifty 8-13 yr G-Sec Index, made up of liquid Government securities with maturity between 8 to 13 years, which aim to lend a measure of stability to portfolios

Pairing Equity with Debt, it is designed to let investors participate in Equity growth while the Debt portion helps cushion some of the ups and downs. To keep the 70:30 balance steady as markets move, the index is rebalanced every month. Because the Fund replicates this index, it holds at least 95% of its assets in the index's securities, with a small balance in debt and money market instruments@ for liquidity. It is benchmarked against the Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-Sec 70:30 Index (TRI).

What is HDFC Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-Sec 70:30 Index Fund?

At its simplest, this is a single fund that invests in both shares and government bonds together, in a fixed 70:30 mix, by mirroring a market index.

It brings together a few ideas. As an index fund, it is passively managed: instead of a Fund Manager deciding what to hold, it aims to track the securities in its index, so its returns move in line with that of the index, subject to tracking error. The Equity portion spreads across Large Cap and Mid Cap companies, which tend to offer growth over the long run. The Debt portion holds government securities, bonds issued by the Government of India, which generally have lower risk than Equities. Holding both in one fund means you get a Equity-and-Debt mix without having to combine separate funds yourself or rebalance them over time.

Who can consider HDFC Nifty LargeMidcap250 Plus 8-13 yr G-Sec 70:30 Index Fund?

This fund may suit investors who:

  • Want exposure to both Equity and Debt through a single, combination rather than managing separate funds.
  • Are looking for Equity participation but would prefer some cushioning from the Debt portion over pure Equity.
  • Are comfortable with a passive, index-tracking approach rather than active selection.
  • Are seeking long-term wealth creation and can stay invested through market cycles, typically five years or more.
