BusinessManasi Praharaj10 Jul 2026

Bangalore, July 10: Ageas Federal Life Insurance today announced the launch of the IndiGenius Fund, a one-of-its-kind thematic investment solution available through its Unit Linked Insurance Plans (ULIPs). The fund invests in businesses aligned with three long-term structural themes - India Growth story, Indigenisation, and Ingenuity - through a diversified investment portfolio. Benchmarked to the BSE 500 Index, one of India’s broadest market indices, the IndiGenius Fund follows a diversified multi-cap investment approach, providing exposure across largecap, midcap and smallcap companies. The BSE 500 Index has been chosen as the benchmark because it represents a broad cross-section of India’s listed companies across sectors and market capitalisations, making it well aligned with the fund’s investment strategy. This enables the fund to identify opportunities across businesses aligned with its investment themes while benefiting from the breadth and diversity of India’s evolving corporate landscape.

The IndiGenius Fund is an open-ended equity fund that follows a predominantly equity-oriented investment strategy. It will allocate 80%–100% of its portfolio to equity and equity-linked instruments while the balance will be invested in cash and money market instruments to ensure adequate liquidity. The portfolio will be actively managed in line with the fund’s investment objectives and applicable regulatory guidelines.

Commenting on the launch, Mr. Jude Gomes, Managing Director & CEO said, " India's next phase of growth will be shaped by businesses driving infrastructure development, manufacturing excellence, self-reliance and innovation. As these structural trends gather momentum, we believe customers should have access to investment solutions that enable them to participate in India's evolving growth story. The IndiGenius Fund brings together these themes within a single diversified ULIP fund, providing customers with a convenient way to invest in businesses aligned with these long-term structural trends. At Ageas Federal Life Insurance, we are committed to delivering on the promises we make to our customers by offering solutions that are relevant to their evolving financial needs. The IndiGenius fund reflects our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that help customers achieve their long-term financial aspirations with the assurance of life insurance protection.”

The New Fund Offer (NFO) opens on 10 July 2026 at a Net Asset Value (NAV) of ₹10 per unit. This thematic equity fund will be available through select Ageas Federal Life Insurance ULIP products, including AFLI Wealth Gain Insurance Plan, AFLI Platinum Wealth Builder Plan, AFLI ProGrow Plan and AFLI Smart Growth Plan, enabling customers to access a differentiated thematic investment strategy while benefiting from the life insurance protection offered by a ULIP.
