Groww Launches Small-Cap Equity Fund
Groww Mutual Fund has started a new investment fund called the Groww Small Cap Fund.
This fund will invest in small companies to help them grow over time.

The fund aims to grow your money by picking good small companies.
It will be managed by Anupam Tiwari.
Meanwhile, Motilal Oswal Asset Management has paused new investments in their Nifty Microcap 250 Index Fund because of rules from SEBI.
Existing investors in the Motilal Oswal fund are not affected, and their investments will continue to be managed as before.
Small companies can grow a lot, but they can also be risky, so it's important to think carefully before investing.
The Groww fund will reopen for continuous investment and redemption on or before 6 February 2026.
Groww Mutual Fund launched the Groww Small Cap Fund, an open-ended equity scheme investing in small-cap stocks.
The NFO opened on 8 January 2026 and will close on 22 January 2026.
The fund aims to generate long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity and equity-related instruments of small-cap companies.
The minimum investment amount is ₹500, with an exit load of 1% if redeemed within one year.
