Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund launches India's first Nifty Alpha 50 ETF


Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund has launched India’s first ever Nifty Alpha 50 ETF called the Kotak Nifty Alpha 50 ETF.

Kotak’s Nifty Alpha 50 ETF will track the performance of 50 stocks listed with NSE with high Alpha in the last one year. As per the criteria, these companies are selected from top 300 companies by average free-float market capitalization and average daily turnover for the last six months.

Here are some features of this new fund, according to the mutual fund house:
