Why Quant MF direct

  • Distinctive investment philosophy (VLRT framework, momentum-driven).
  • Active churn (high portfolio turnover); can generate strong gains in trending markets, faster drawdowns in corrections.
  • Direct plans only on AMC portal.
  • Most schemes are tier-2 in size, allowing nimble position changes.

Scheme highlights

  • Quant Active Fund.
  • Quant Mid Cap Fund.
  • Quant Small Cap Fund.
  • Quant Tax Plan (ELSS).
  • Quant Multi Asset Fund.
  • Quant Flexi Cap Fund.

Style caveat

Quant’s high turnover means realised capital gains are passed to investors more frequently than in low-turnover passive funds. Tax implications: hold for long-term to avoid STCG churn at the investor level (the fund’s internal churn is non-taxable to investor; only realised at redemption).
