In a move to capture India’s growing sustainable-investment wave, HDFC Mutual Fund has launched a new ESG-focused Fund of Funds with a target corpus of ₹1,000 crore. The scheme will deploy capital across global and domestic ESG-compliant funds emphasizing renewable energy, technology efficiency, and inclusive-finance sectors. It aims for a 20% compound annual growth rate over five years. Analysts said rising millennial participation and institutional mandates could accelerate inflows. The new fund offer closes on November 10 and is available online and through registered distributors.
