Nippon India Mutual Fund · Direct Growth · SEBI Category: Equity
Nippon India Power & Infra Fund has a distinctive focus on the power sector within the broader infrastructure category — a meaningful differentiation given India's massive power sector transformation. India is undergoing a historic shift in its power sector: coal-based generation is being supplemented by renewable energy (solar, wind), power transmission infrastructure is being upgraded, and smart metering and distribution efficiency projects are creating new investment opportunities across the power value chain.
The fund invests in power generation companies (NTPC, Adani Green, Tata Power), power transmission and distribution companies (Power Grid, Torrent Power), renewable energy developers and the infrastructure ecosystem that supports power delivery. This power-heavy infrastructure focus means the fund behaves differently from broader infrastructure funds with heavy construction and cement exposure.
Kinjal Desai manages the power and infrastructure components of this fund while Dhrumil Shah supports the portfolio construction. Desai is also the fixed income co-manager for Nippon India Balanced Advantage Fund — demonstrating the breadth of expertise at Nippon India MF. In the infrastructure context, Desai focuses specifically on power sector dynamics — generation, transmission and distribution — alongside broader infrastructure themes.
