About Kotak Conservative Hybrid Fund

Kotak Conservative Hybrid Fund is a conservative hybrid fund managed by Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund. Invest 75–90% in debt and 10–25% in equity, for modest growth with lower volatility.

The investment objective of the Scheme is to enhance returns over a portfolio of debt instruments with a moderate exposure in equity and equity related instruments. By investing in debt securities, the Scheme will aim at generating regular returns, while enhancement of return is intended through investing in equity and equity related securities. The Scheme may also use various derivative and hedging products from time to time, in the manner permitted by SEBI. There is no assurance that the investment objective of the Schemes will be realised.

The scheme's stated objective, as published by Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund.

The NAV (net asset value) is the price of one unit of the fund. It is published by the fund house every business day and changes with the value of the fund's holdings. The Growth option reinvests all gains, so its NAV reflects the fund's total return.

Tax on your gains

How gains are taxed depends on how much equity the scheme holds. At 65% equity or more it follows equity rules — 12.5% on long-term gains above ₹1.25 lakh; below that, gains are usually taxed at your slab rate. The scheme document states which applies.
