The scheme will be anchored to investing in growth businesses and will be consensus-agnostic. The scheme strives to adopt a prudent sell-discipline on achieving objective or fundamental thesis change as part of its on-going portfolio management.
Nifty 500 will be the primary universe for the fund from which 75% or more of the portfolio constituents will be selected. The next 500-750 companies would also be pursued tactically to capitalise on emerging sectors, trends and companies. Through rigorous research, the selection is narrowed down to 100-120 companies, focusing on earnings growth, leadership, and valuation comfort.
Live Events
The fund does not rigidly adhere to market cap classifications but instead gravitates toward stocks with the most compelling risk-reward profiles, ensuring diversified exposure to large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap opportunities.
The fund will be managed by V. N. Saravanan (CIO & Fund Manager), Aejas Lakhani (Fund Manager – Equity), Karthik Srinivas (Fund Manager – Debt), and Aman Reddy (Fund Manager – Foreign Investments). The performance of the fund will be benchmarked against Nifty 500 TRI.
The minimum investment amount for lumpsum is Rs 5,000 and in multiples of Re 1 thereafter. The minimum amount for SIP investment is Rs 500 and in multiples of Re 1.
The scheme will allocate 65-100% in equities and equity related instruments, 0-35% in debt securities and money market instruments, and 0-10% in units issued by REITs & InvIT's.
'The Flexicap fund is our singular offering in the equity segment and enables us to stay focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation. Our portfolio construction approach would be to typically have 40 to 60 positions across 5 or more sectors offering growth tailwinds and reasonable valuations. We aim to strike the right balance between bottom-up stock selection and being mindful of the benchmark,' said
Saravanan V N
, CIO, Unifi Mutual Fund.
Unifi Mutual Fund launched their first fund – Unifi Dynamic Asset Allocation Fund – two months ago and it already has an AUM of Rs. 600 crores. The Flexicap Fund is the second of three funds that they intend to launch in their initial phase, according to a press release.

From foes to friends to foes again: What are ten key moments in Trump-Musk fickle relationship?
Image credit: AP In a dramatic 48-hour unraveling, the relationship between US President Donald Trump and billionnaire Elon Musk collapsed spectacularly in full public view. The clash began when Musk openly criticized Trump's proposed 'big beautiful bill,' calling it fiscally irresponsible and disconnected from innovation-driven policy. Trump fired back with threats to revoke federal subsidies and government contracts for Musk's companies, framing the tech billionaire as ungrateful and disloyal. Musk, in turn, escalated the feud, accusing Trump of deception, failed leadership, and clinging to outdated political narratives. What was once a transactional alliance between political power and tech influence has now devolved into a high-profile feud playing out across social media platforms, with implications for business, politics, and the 2024 presidential landscape. However, their relationship has swung from initial disagreements, to standing firmly by each other, and eventually drifting apart once again. Here's a lookback into their hot and cold relationship: 2016: When Musk felt Trump 'not right guy' for US There was a time, not long ago, when Musk publicly noted that Trump's lacked the "character that reflects well on the United States". He had appraised Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton over Republican Donald Trump. "I feel a bit stronger that he is not the right guy," Musk had said about Trump. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 3BHK Transformation Possible for ₹4.5 Lakh? HomeLane Get Quote Undo "He doesn't seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States," he had said. "I don't think this is the finest moment in our democracy," the Tesla CEO added. 2017: Musk joins, then quits Trump's administration Elon Musk left Donald Trump's administration during his first term over differences in opinions on climate change. Musk was a part of a handful of White House advisory boards, including Trump's "manufacturing jobs council." "Climate change is real. Leaving Paris is not good for America or the world," he had said. 2020: Trump calls Musk 'one of our great brains' In 2020, Trump publicly praised Musk during a SpaceX launch, calling him 'one of our great brains' and commending his achievements. However, despite occasional tensions, Musk maintained close ties with the federal government through lucrative SpaceX contracts with Nasa and other agencies. 2022: When Trump called Musk a 'bulls*** artist' Trump, during a rally in 2022, had criticised Musk calling him a "bulls*** artist" for supporting the Democrats in 2016 Presidential elections. 'He said the other day, 'Oh, I've never voted for a Republican'. I said, 'I didn't know that.' He told me he voted for me, so he's another bulls*** artist,' he had said. Two months after this incident, Musk, who bought X, formerly known as Twitter, lifted ban on Trump's social media account. His account was suspended in 2021 following the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, as X's previous management cited the risk of incitement to violence in the wake of the deadly riot led by Trump's supporters. July 2024: Musk's first official endorsement for Trump The X owner's first official endorsement for Trump came on July 13, 2024 (local time), after the then GOP presidential nominee survived an assassination attempt. "I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery," Musk had said. Musk then actively supported Trump's campaign, even appearing alongside him on the trail, and contributed around $277 million to boost Trump and other Republican candidates — primarily through a super PAC he backs, known as America PAC, according to campaign finance records, CBS News reported. The contribution made Musk the single largest donor to either party in the 2024 election cycle, according to federal election commission filings. December 2024: With Trump in office, 'a star is born- Elon' After securing victory in the US presidential elections, Trump, in his victory speech, gave a special mention to Musk saying: 'We have a new star; a star is born- Elon.' 'He's an amazing guy. We were sitting together tonight. You know, he spent two weeks in Philadelphia, in different parts of Pennsylvania, campaigning,' he had said. January 2025: Musk back in Trump admin, spearheading DOGE Trump appointed Musk to head the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a role focused on reducing federal spending. However, the initiative fell significantly short of Musk's ambitious target of saving $1 trillion. And thus began the beginning of a relationship that led Musk publicly professing his love for Trump: "I love @realDonaldTrump as much as a straight man can love another man," he had said. The two leaders made a joint appearance in the Oval Office, where they took questions from the press. Musk was accompanied by his son during the visit. July: Musk criticises 'big beautiful bill' after exiting Trump government Days after exiting Trump administration, Musk took on 'big beautiful bill' saying: "This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong." T he outspoken protest marked Musk's first public break with Trump since stepping down from his administration role last week. "Call your Senator, Call your Congressman, Bankrupting America is NOT ok! KILL the BILL," he said. Tensions flared even further when Musk claimed credit for Trump's 2024 victory and dismissed the former president's remarks with a blunt 'Whatever.' 'Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate," Musk claimed. In retaliation, Trump accused Musk of going 'crazy' after losing influence and threatened to cut federal subsidies to Musk's companies. "Elon was 'wearing thin,' I asked him to leave… and he just went CRAZY!' he said. Musk drops 'Epstein files' bomb In a stunning escalation, Musk accused Trump of being named in the Jeffrey Epstein files — a highly controversial and politically explosive topic that continues to cast a long shadow over American public life. 'Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!' he said. "Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out,' he added. He also criticised Trump's tariffs saying: 'The Trump tariffs will cause a recession in the second half of this year.' Musk calls for new 'American Party' Musk called for the launch of a new political party in the US calling it "The American Party". 'Is it time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?' he said. Based on the X poll results, Musk agreed upon the name 'The America Party'. "The people have spoken. A new political party is needed in America to represent the 80% in the middle! And exactly 80% of people agree. This is fate," he added. Given their history of fickle relationship, will they find their ways back to each other, or is it the beginning of the end?

Elon Musk vs Donald Trump: New political party ‘The America Party' gains momentum after 80% of X users say yes
Elon Musk and Donald Trump once stood on the same political platform. Now, they're locked in an explosive feud that's playing out across social media—and reshaping America's political landscape. This week, Musk floated the idea of a new centrist political movement . In a viral poll on his social media platform X, he asked: 'Is it time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?' When 80% of respondents said yes, Musk declared, 'The people have spoken. A new political party is needed in America to represent the 80% in the middle! And exactly 80% of people agree. This is fate.' Soon after, he proposed a name: The America Party . It was a direct challenge not only to the Democratic and Republican establishment—but also to the man he once endorsed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Infertile Man Visits Orphanage And Hears, 'Hi Daddy.' Then He Realizes His Late Wife's Cruel Lies Crowdy Fan Undo From MAGA to meltdown Musk and Trump were once politically inseparable. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO had served on Trump's advisory councils, campaigned alongside him, and even formed a political action committee to support Trump's 2024 bid. He appeared at rallies, sported the MAGA cap, stood behind Trump at the swearing-in, and travelled on Air Force One. That partnership is now over. Live Events The split became public when Musk denounced Trump's $2.4 trillion tax-and-spend measure—nicknamed by the former president as his 'big, beautiful bill.' Musk called it a 'disgusting abomination.' The comment surprised Republican leaders and drew an immediate, personal reaction from Trump. 'Elon and I had a great relationship. I don't know if we will anymore,' Trump said from the Oval Office. Trading blows in public Trump then escalated the situation. Writing on Truth Social, he took direct aim at Musk's business interests: 'The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon's Governmental Subsidies and Contracts.' He added, 'I was always surprised that Biden didn't do it!' Musk didn't back down. He accused Trump of 'ingratitude' and reposted allegations, without evidence, suggesting Trump's name appeared in official documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein. He also said, 'Without me, Trump would have lost the election,' before adding, 'Such ingratitude.' What followed was a blitz of insults, memes, and viral reactions from both camps and the public. A fractured right wing This clash has deeper implications. Musk had been a key financial supporter of Republican candidates in the 2024 election cycle. His abrupt shift towards centrist politics—if not a full departure from the GOP—could unsettle conservative ranks. By proposing The America Party, Musk has attempted to position himself as a representative of the politically homeless middle. But challenges remain. U.S. election laws make it difficult to secure ballot access across 50 states. While the idea of a centrist third party is not new, no billionaire tech executive has ever tried to build one this publicly. And despite the buzz, Musk cannot run for president due to his South African birth. The U.S. Constitution requires candidates to be natural-born citizens. Online reactions and cultural ripples The feud hasn't just caught the attention of political commentators. It has gone full viral. Social media flooded with memes, TikTok mashups, and hot takes. One user, Brother Nathanael, wrote: 'Elon Musk President USA of The American Party! That presidential look:'. Vivian Jenna Wilson, Musk's estranged daughter and a prominent drag artist, joined the online conversation with a viral post that resonated across LGBTQ+ social media. Her participation added a personal twist to an already highly visible standoff. Meanwhile, the business world also felt the heat. Tesla shares fell by 14%, while Trump Media stock slipped 8%. A disruption in motion For now, The America Party exists only as a name, a poll result, and a few bold posts. But its announcement marks a moment. It underlines the friction between politics and technology. It highlights the instability of alliances based on influence rather than ideology. And it shows how billionaire disputes can quickly spill over into public discourse—with real-world political and economic consequences. Whether Musk's effort becomes a lasting political force or a footnote in internet history is unclear. But one thing is certain—American politics just became even less predictable.
