Sundaram Mutual Launches Mid- and Small-Cap SIF Amid Hybrid SIFs' Market Performance

Analysed 23 Oct 2026·7 sources analysed·India·Business
Sundaram Mutual Launches Mid- and Small-Cap SIF Amid Hybrid SIFs' Market PerformancePreviousNext

Sundaram Mutual has launched a Rs 350 crore specialised investment fund (SIF) focusing on mid- and small-cap companies ranked outside India's top 100 by market capitalization. The fund employs a long-short strategy with concentrated stock selection and aims to capitalize on stronger earnings momentum in this segment. Meanwhile, hybrid SIFs have demonstrated resilience by limiting losses during market declines while participating in recoveries, capturing less downside and a substantial portion of upside compared to traditional mutual funds and indices over their first year.
