About the fund
The Zerodha Life Cycle Fund 2036 is designed for investors working towards a financial goal roughly 10 years away.
The Zerodha Life Cycle Fund 2036 is designed for investors working towards a financial goal roughly 10 years away.
Unlike most mutual funds, it comes with a target year: 2036. The fund invests across a mix of asset classes, starting with a growth-oriented allocation, tilted towards equity, and automatically shifts to a more conservative allocation as the target year 2036 approaches.
This makes it a fit for goals that have a defined timeline. If you are saving for loan down-payment around 2036, building a corpus for starting a business, or planning for any large expense 10 years away, this fund may work for you.
On the equity side, the fund aims to track the Nifty LargeMidcap 250 Index. On the debt side, it invests in Indian government securities (G-Secs) across different durations. It also takes some commodities and arbitrage exposure.
This fund may be suitable for someone who wants a disciplined, tax-efficient, structured approach to investing without actively managing their portfolio. You pick your target year, you stay invested, and the fund takes care of the rest.
Throughout its lifecycle, the fund is treated as equity for taxation purposes. You can start investing in it with an amount as low as ₹100.
