Fund size over time
Quarterly average AUM · AMFIAt or near its largest, ₹61.28Cr in April - June 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
quant Mutual Fund is run by quant Money Managers, which acquired the erstwhile Escorts Mutual Fund in 2018 and rebranded it. The house runs a data-driven approach with markedly higher portfolio turnover than most of its peers.
