New Delhi: Zerodha Fund House, a joint venture between Zerodha and smallcase, witnessed substantial growth with its assets under management (AUM) surging Rs500 crore in just 40 days, taking the total tally to cross Rs1,000-crore mark.

Vasanth Kamath, Founder and CEO, smallcase announced on X(formerly Twitter): “Heartening to see investor trust continue to compound at @ZerodhaAMC (a smallcase-Zerodha JV) with assets doubling toover Rs1,000 crore in just 40 days. It’s a reflection of the growing appetite for index-based investment products & we are grateful for all the feedback & ideas.”
