The Nifty 50 Index represents India’s 50 largest and most liquid companies across major sectors such as banking, IT, energy, FMCG, and automobiles. It reflects the overall performance of the Indian economy.
As of October 7, 2025, the Nifty 50 opened at 25,085.30, reached a high of 25,220.90 and a low of 25,076.30, and closed at 25,077.65, with the last traded price (LTP) at 25,108.30. Over recent periods, the index recorded a 1-month return of +1.48%, a 3-month return of -1.06%, a 1-year return of +2.53%, a 3-year CAGR of 14.5%, and a 5-year CAGR of 17.84%.
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) allows you to invest a fixed amount regularly, benefiting from rupee-cost averaging and compounding. It smooths out market volatility and encourages disciplined investing.
If you invest ₹3,000 monthly in a Nifty 50 Index Fund, your potential corpus could grow as follows:
Investment Period | CAGR (%) | Total Investment | Estimated Corpus |
5 Years | 17.84 | ₹1,80,000 | ~₹2,90,000 |
10 Years | 13.25 | ₹3,60,000 | ~₹7,51,000 |
(Estimated returns are based on historical returns; actual outcomes may vary)
There are several Nifty 50 index funds available in the market, and Angel One also offers one such fund.
Angel One Nifty 50 Index Fund is a passively managed index fund designed to track the performance of the Nifty 50 TRI. It aims to achieve this by investing in the securities that constitute the Nifty 50 Index in the same proportion as in the index. At least 95% of the scheme’s total assets will be allocated to the securities comprising the underlying index, while the remaining portion may be invested in money market instruments to manage liquidity and meet expense requirements.
The investment objective of the scheme is to replicate the Nifty 50 Index and provide returns, before expenses, that closely track the total return of the index, subject to tracking errors. However, there is no assurance or guarantee that the scheme will achieve its investment objective.
It is structured as an open-ended scheme that replicates or tracks the Nifty 50 Index.
