The minimum SIP requirement has been lowered to ₹100 per application from ₹1,000. The minimum lump-sum investment remains at ₹1,000. 

Scheme Background and Structure 

Axis Silver Fund of Fund is a commodities-focused mutual fund scheme launched on September 21, 2022. The scheme is managed by fund managers Aditya Pagaria and Pratik Tibrewal.

As per the latest available data, the fund has an expense ratio of 0.14% and manages assets under management (AUM) of about ₹907 crore. 

Investment Objective and Strategy

Asset Allocation Details 

The portfolio is largely allocated to commodities, accounting for around 99% of total assets. Debt instruments form roughly 3.75% of the portfolio, while cash and cash equivalents are reported at about -2.75%, reflecting portfolio-level adjustments and operational positioning. 

Investment Terms and Changes 

Before the revision, both lump-sum and SIP investments required a minimum contribution of ₹1,000. With the latest change, investors can start SIP investments with ₹100, while the lump-sum threshold continues at ₹1,000.
