Fund size over time
Quarterly average AUM · AMFIAt or near its largest, ₹4,505Cr in January - March 2026. Size matters most where the mandate is narrow — a large small-cap or a very large flexi-cap book is harder to move without moving the price.
Net flow is an estimate: AMFI publishes a quarterly average AUM, not a closing balance, and it covers every plan and option of this scheme together, so it is a read on direction and rough size rather than a cash-flow statement.
AMC Profile
HSBC Mutual Fund is the Indian arm of HSBC Asset Management and has operated here since 2002. It roughly tripled in size by acquiring L&T Mutual Fund in 2022 and merging the two line-ups.
