Mahindra Manulife Business Cycle Fund

Mahindra Manulife Mutual Fund·Sectoral / Thematic·vs Nifty 500 TRI

The fund is positioned for economic resilience across cyclical and infrastructure sectors, with a deliberate tilt toward banks, power, and cement that reflects confidence in capex-led growth. The manager has actively pruned underperforming IT and finance names while adding infrastructure plays like Adani Enterprises and shipbuilders, signaling conviction in India's capex recovery rather than consumption or technology. This rebalancing suggests positioning for a sustained industrial-led cycle over near-term volatility.
