About Samco Active Momentum Fund

Samco Active Momentum Fund is a sectoral / thematic fund managed by Samco Mutual Fund. Invest in one sector (such as banking, IT or pharma) or a theme (such as consumption or infrastructure). Concentrated and higher risk; suited to investors with a view on that sector.

The investment objective of the Scheme is to seek to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing in stocks showing strong momentum. Momentum stocks are such that exhibit positive price momentum – based on the phenomenon that stocks which have performed well in the past relative to other stocks (winners) continue to perform well in the future, and stocks that have performed relatively poorly (losers) continue to perform poorly.

The scheme's stated objective, as published by Samco 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.

Gains are taxed as equity: sell within 12 months and the gain is short-term, taxed at 20%. Hold longer and it is long-term, taxed at 12.5% on gains above ₹1.25 lakh in a financial year, across all your equity investments.
