Kotak Focused Fund has recently completed its 6th year of launch this July 2025. Since its inception in July 2019, a monthly Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) of ₹10,000 in the fund’s regular plan would have grown to approximately ₹12.29 lakh as per value research mentioned by CNBC. The total amount invested over this period would be ₹7.2 lakh.
The fund has delivered an impressive, annualised SIP return of about 17.7% during this timeframe. For investors who opted for a lump sum investment of ₹10,000 at launch, the value would have appreciated to roughly ₹28,029, as per the fund house.
Kotak Focused Fund has provided positive returns in every 3- and 5-year holding period, making it a dependable choice for long-term investors. The minimum initial investment amount is ₹100, making it accessible to a wide range of investors.

Launched on July 16, 2019, Kotak Focused Fund is managed by Shibani Sircar Kurian and currently manages assets exceeding ₹3,700 crore.
The scheme follows a concentrated investment strategy, holding stakes in no more than 30 companies. The portfolio is heavily tilted towards large-cap stocks, which make up around 79%, while mid-cap stocks constitute about 17%. Sector-wise, the fund favours large banks, telecom, technology, consumer discretionary, and capital markets, while maintaining an underweight stance in metals and oil & gas.
Despite its focused portfolio, the fund has managed to keep its beta below 1 and maintain a Sharpe ratio above 1, reflecting strong risk-adjusted performance. It has consistently outperformed its benchmark across multiple time horizons — six months, one year, three years, five years, and since inception.
