It is a concentrated equity fund and will invest in 25 stocks from amongst the top 200 companies of the country.

Axis Focused 25 Fund is another equity fund with focused approach launched by Axis Mutual Fund. It will be an open-ended equity scheme and will invest in 25 companies chosen from the top 200 (according to market capitalisation). It is the seventh such fund in this category.

 

Investment Objective & Strategy
The fund seeks to generate long term capital appreciation by investing 65-100% in equities. 90-100% of the equity investment would be in companies forming the top 200, while the rest can go to those outside it. Debt allocation will vary between 0-35%. The fund manager will follow a bottom-up stock selection approach focusing on appreciation potential of individual stocks from a fundamental perspective. Usually, Axis AMC employs a "fair value" based research process for its schemes to analyse the appreciation potential of each stock in its universe. Fair Value is a measure of the intrinsic worth of a company.
