Over the period, investing in Nifty 50 index funds has become an increasingly popular choice among Indian investors seeking long-term wealth creation with relatively lower risk. The Nifty 50 index represents the top 50 large-cap companies listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE), spanning various sectors of the economy. By investing in an index fund that tracks the Nifty 50, investors gain diversified exposure to some of the most stable and high-performing companies in India, all through a single, low-cost investment vehicle.
This passive investment strategy appeals especially to those who prefer a hands-off approach while still aiming to benefit from the overall growth of the Indian economy. In this blog, we’ll take a closer look at some of the best Nifty 50 index funds for October 2025.
