SBI Mutual Fund garners over Rs 900 crore from Nifty50 index fund NFO

The largest fund house SBI Mutual Fund has collected over Rs 900 crore through its new fund offer, the AMC said in a statement on Saturday. The fund house said it has received more than 40,000 applications for the Nifty50 equal weight index fund, which closed on January 29. The fund house recorded huge collections on the back of significant contributions from all distribution channels and a strong interest from the direct channel, it added.
