Motilal Oswal MF launches Diversified Flexicap Passive Fund Of Funds

Motilal Oswal Mutual Fund has launched a new scheme, the Motilal Oswal Diversified Equity Flexicap Passive Fund of Funds. The new fund offer opened on 2 January 2026, and will close on 15 January 2026.

The open-ended fund of funds will invest in passive equity funds and ETFs to provide diversified exposure across large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap segments through a structured allocation model. The scheme will begin with an equal allocation of one-third each to large, mid and small caps.

Allocations will be reviewed quarterly and rebalanced only if any segment deviates by more than 5% from its target weight. According to the fund house, this approach is intended to systematically rebalance portfolios by trimming outperforming segments and increasing exposure to underweighted segments, without relying on market timing.

The scheme aims to address challenges faced by investors in predicting market-cap leadership cycles, as leadership has historically rotated between large, mid and small caps across market cycles. By investing through passive instruments, the fund seeks to avoid structural large-cap bias seen in several flexicap strategies.

The benchmark for the scheme is the Nifty 500 Total Return Index. The minimum investment during the NFO period is Rs 500, with additional investments in multiples of Re 1. On an ongoing basis, the minimum lump sum investment remains Rs 500.

An exit load of 1% will be applicable if units are redeemed within 15 days from the date of allotment, with no exit load thereafter. The fund will be managed by Swapnil Mayekar for the equity component and Rakesh Shetty for the debt component.

Motilal Oswal Asset Management Company said the scheme is suitable for investors seeking long-term capital growth through diversified exposure to equity market segments using a passive investment approach.
