Investors looking for new opportunities in the stock market have several fresh options to explore.
Leading asset management companies (AMCs) have launched multiple new funds, including mutual fund schemes and a Special Investment Fund (SIF).
The biggest attraction is that some of these schemes allow investors to start with as little as ₹100.
Currently, five new mutual fund schemes and one Special Investment Fund are open for subscription, giving investors a chance to diversify their portfolios.
Start Investing with Just ₹100
Zerodha Mutual Fund has launched two new schemes — the Zerodha Life Cycle Fund 2036 and Zerodha Life Cycle Fund 2041. Investors can subscribe to both schemes until July 7, 2026.
Another affordable option is the HDFC Nifty Auto Index Fund from HDFC Mutual Fund, which will remain open for investment until July 3, 2026.
The biggest advantage of these three schemes is that investors can start with a minimum investment of just ₹100.
