Trust Mutual Fund is an Indian asset management company sponsored by Trust Investment Advisors Private Limited, operating since 2020 with a distinctive focus on debt-oriented credit-research-driven mutual fund schemes. The AMC was founded by Sandeep Bagla, a debt-market veteran with prior experience at ICICI Prudential and Reliance (now Nippon India) Mutual Funds. Trust Mutual Fund operates under SEBI registration and the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations 1996 framework.

Trust Mutual Fund occupies a niche position in the Indian mutual fund industry. While most Indian AMCs operate across the full spectrum of equity, debt, and hybrid schemes, Trust focused initially on debt-oriented schemes with a particular emphasis on credit research and structured-debt strategies. The AMC has subsequently expanded into equity-oriented schemes but retains its debt-research focus as its core differentiator. As of 2025, AUM is approximately Rs 3,000-5,000 crore, placing the AMC in the small specialist tier.
