The scheme is currently following a ‘roll down’ investment approach on a tactical basis. This means that ordinarily the average maturity of the scheme’s portfolio is unlikely to increase significantly and may be expected to generally reduce with the passage of time, subject to intermittentperiods of volatility in the maturity profile owing to AUM movement and market conditions. The approach being followed currently is tactical in nature and would be subject to change depending on investment opportunities available without prior notice.The product positioning and intended duration stated in this document is based on current view & is subject to change from time to time.SatelliteAssetAllocationRequirement7Harshal JoshiAnurag Mittal &Harshal Joshi (w.e.f.28th July 2021)Anurag Mittal &Harshal Joshi (w.e.f.28th July 2021)Suyash ChoudharySuyash ChoudharySuyash ChoudharyArvind SubramanianAnurag Mittal &Arvind Subramanian& Suyash Choudhary(w.e.f. 28th July2021)Fund Manager
