About Sundaram Mutual Fund
Sundaram Asset Management Company Ltd. is the holding organization of Sundaram Mutual Funds and is itself a wholly owned subsidiary of Sundaram Finance Limited.

The company has since expanded to mutual funds, general insurance, both home and car finance, and financial services distribution.
Sundaram AMC was formed in 1996 separating Sundaram’s mutual fund section from its core financing operations. The company was co-sponsored by Sundaram Finance Limited and Stewart Newton Holdings (Mauritius). In 2002, however, Newton Investment Management got acquired and Sundaram took the opportunity to buy the Newton group’s holdings.
Sundaram AMC also has a history with BNP Paribas Asset Management (BNP PAM), which acquired a 49.9% equity stake at Sundaram AMC in the year 2006 but sold the stake in 2010.
The AMC has a fairly diverse range of mutual funds including equity, debt, liquid and fixed-income funds.
