360 One Asset Management has launched the Dynasif Equity X-Top 100 Long-Short Fund under its Specialized Investment Fund (SIF) platform, Dynasif.
The fund aims to generate long-term capital growth by investing mainly in mid- and small-cap companies.
The New Fund Offer (NFO) opened on June 5, 2026, and investors can subscribe until June 19, 2026.
Why the Fund Is Focusing on Mid- and Small-Cap Companies
According to the company, India’s mid- and small-cap segment offers strong investment opportunities due to its earnings growth potential, improving corporate governance, and long-term business prospects.
However, investing in these companies also comes with higher risks. To address this, the fund has been designed with a focus on careful stock selection and active risk management.
Under the investment strategy, at least 65% of the portfolio will be invested in mid- and small-cap companies that are outside India’s top 100 companies by market value.
The fund can also invest up to 35% in large-cap stocks when needed. In periods of higher market risk, it may allocate up to 25% of its portfolio to debt instruments such as treasury bills, money market instruments, and corporate bonds.
Long-Short Strategy and Other Key Features
One of the major features of the fund is its limited short-selling strategy. Through derivatives, the fund can take short positions of up to 25% in mid- and small-cap stocks.
The goal is to benefit from potential declines in companies that have weak business performance or poor growth prospects.
The fund can also invest up to 20% in Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs), providing an additional source of regular income.
What Company Leaders Said
Raghav Iyengar, Chief Executive Officer of 360 One Asset Management, said that India’s mid- and small-cap companies currently represent one of the most attractive investment opportunities globally.
He noted that the market is large, spread across multiple sectors, and supported by India’s long-term economic growth story.
According to him, investors should capitalize on these opportunities while maintaining proper risk management, which is the core objective of the new fund.
Anup Maheshwari, Co-founder and Chief Investment Officer, said that active fund managers have more opportunities outside the top 100 companies.
He explained that some high-growth businesses are available at attractive valuations, while certain stocks trade at prices that are higher than their fundamentals justify.
He added that the fund’s long and short positions are designed to take advantage of such market opportunities.
