Bandhan Small Cap Fund
Bandhan Small Cap Fund is positioned for steady returns through financial services and real estate plays, betting on rate-sensitive sectors likely to benefit from economic normalcy. The fund's 14% allocation to a repo instrument signals defensive positioning while maintaining core exposure to undervalued financials and housing stocks—a tactical shift confirmed by trimming large-cap bellwethers like Reliance and L&T in favor of smaller fintech and logistics names. The elevated cash buffer and reduced top-5 concentration compared to typical small cap mandates suggest the manager is being cautiously selective in this market.
