Kotak Mahindra Mutual FundSEBI-registered AMCAbout INFINITY
Infinity SIF is Kotak Mutual Fund's platform for Specialised Investment Funds, marking the firm's entry into a smarter, more strategic way to grow wealth for investors beyond traditional mutual funds. Its maiden strategy, the Infinity Hybrid Long-Short Fund, launched with an approach that aims to navigate different market conditions through dynamic management of net equity exposure, combining long-only investments, permitted short exposures, and arbitrage opportunities. Kotak's MD Nilesh Shah positioned it as a natural evolution from disciplined long-only mutual fund investing, offering greater flexibility through long-short strategies. A second product, the Infinity Hybrid Long Short Fund's equity-focused strategy, opened in June 2026, combining equity and debt investments with controlled short exposure via derivatives, aiming to protect downside by allocating to arbitrage/debt and short strategies. As with all SIFs, the minimum investment is ₹10 lakh.
