Beyond folio count, Nippon India Mutual Fund also maintains the largest unique investor base. It serves 2.41 crore unique investors, which constitutes 39 percent of the industry’s 6.19 crore total unique investors.

Sundeep Sikka, MD and CEO of Nippon Life India Asset Management, expressed gratitude for the trust of these 4 crore investors. He highlighted the company’s role in facilitating wealth creation for millions of retail investors and enabling Japanese investors’ participation in India’s growth.

While other major fund houses like ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, HDFC Mutual Fund, SBI Mutual Fund, and UTI Mutual Fund hold substantial folio counts, Nippon India Mutual Fund leads.
