Zerodha Mutual Fund announced that Zerodha Nifty 1D Rate Liquid ETF crossed Rs 1,000 crore assets under management (AUM). The unique scheme from the fund house marked the arrival of Liquid ETFs that offer a growth NAV for the first time in India, according to a press release from the fund house.
The fund was launched on January 24. Zerodha Nifty 1D Rate Liquid ETF is benchmarked against the Nifty 1D Rate Index, which measures the returns generated by market participants lending in the overnight market.
The ETF primarily invests in TREPS (Treasury Bills Repurchase) traded on the CCIL (Clearing Corporation of India Ltd) platform. As the investment is made in overnight debt products backed by treasury bills, it carries a relatively low credit risk and low-interest rate risk.
