Nippon India Growth Fund is an investment scheme that predominantly invests in mid cap stocks. Mid cap stocks are investments in equities and shares of medium sized companies. The companies that range from 101 to 250th rank on the stock list are mid size companies, the first 100 companies are large cap and the companies ranked from 251st position onward are called small cap companies. The listing of companies and their capitalization size is done by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).
Why Should You Consider Investing in Nippon India Growth Fund?
Mid cap stocks are the ones with a lot of potential, as they are the companies that might have grown from a small cap size or they might grow into a large cap company.
- Diversified Investment – Investing in mid cap stocks gives your portfolio exposure to a wide range of companies bordering both the large cap and small cap stocks.
- Moderate Risks – The fund aims to carry moderate risk as the mid cap stocks have companies on the large cap side that persist in the down market, and they offer more profitability than large cap which might help expand towards the up market.
- Potential Growth – The mid cap fund has compressed stocks with high growth rates as they are yet to reach their full potential like large cap, and they are more stable than the smaller companies due to capital size.
- Liquidity of Stocks – Mid cap stocks are traded more than small cap stocks due to the upward growth in the size of their capital, their shares in the market and their reputation in the market.
Nippon India Growth Fund might have the potential to compound and substantially increase profits over a period of time as they invest in mid cap companies. The investor might get a well-diversified portfolio, which could help in optimal risk management.
