Key Insight
The pure-equity twin of LargeCap Multi Asset. Same 20 Nifty 100 momentum names, same 4-week rebalance, but no debt or gold overlay. The 4-week cadence is the cost-saver: 35.19 percent cost ratio is the lowest on the lineup, well below the 50 to 80 percent range of the 2-week cards. The trade you accept for lower turnover is lower momentum capture: 28.39 percent CAGR sits at the conservative end of the lineup, but volatility (21.49 percent) and max drawdown (23.58 percent) are correspondingly modest. 2025 closed only minus 3.5 percent (the multi-asset twin and other defensive cards did better in absolute terms, but this card lost less than every pure-equity peer). Right card for the moderately aggressive investor who wants pure equity but explicitly does not want sub-month turnover friction.
