NFO Alert: The Wealth Company Launches Small Cap Fund; Subscription Open till March 18, 2026

The Wealth Company Mutual Fund, part of the Pantomath Group, has introduced a new small-cap oriented mutual fund scheme.  

The New Fund Offer (NFO) for the The Wealth Company Small Cap Fund opened on March 5, 2026, and will remain open for subscription until March 18, 2026. 

The scheme is structured as an open-ended equity mutual fund under the small-cap category. After the NFO period ends, the fund will reopen for ongoing purchase and redemption of units. 

Investment Objective 

The scheme aims to generate long-term capital appreciation and income by investing mainly in equities of smaller listed companies.  

The fund will track its performance against the NIFTY Smallcap 250 Total Return Index (TRI), which represents a basket of small-cap companies listed on Indian exchanges. 

Allocation 

According to the scheme information document, the fund will invest at least 65% of its total assets in small-cap stocks. 

Small-cap companies generally fall in the lower range of market capitalisation within the listed universe. These businesses are often at earlier stages of growth compared with larger companies. 

Key Features of the Scheme 

The minimum application amount during the NFO is ₹10,000, with further investments allowed in multiples thereafter. Investors can choose between Growth and IDCW (Income Distribution cum Capital Withdrawal) options. 

The scheme does not carry a lock-in requirement. However, an exit load of 1% will apply if units are redeemed within one year from the date of allotment. 

Based on the mutual fund risk classification framework, the scheme is placed in the “Very High Risk” category, reflecting the volatility typically associated with smaller companies. 

Fund Management 

The scheme will be managed by Aparna Shanker, who will oversee portfolio construction and stock selection for the fund.
