1. Systematic Investment Plan (SIP):<\/strong> The product will offer SIP options to investors.<\/p>\n

2. Limited Derivatives Exposure:<\/strong> Derivatives exposure will be capped at 25% of Assets Under Management (AUM) for purposes other than hedging and rebalancing.<\/p>\n

3. No Leverage:<\/strong> The product will not allow leverage, ensuring more conservative risk management.<\/p>\n

4. Restricted Investment in Unlisted Instruments:<\/strong> No investments will be allowed in unlisted or unrated instruments, except for those already permitted for mutual funds.<\/p>\n
