Frequently asked questions

What does Kotak Liquid Fund invest in?

It invests primarily in very short-term money-market instruments.

How is this fund classified?

It is a Debt Scheme - Liquid Fund fund in the Debt group.

How often is the NAV updated?

No. Past performance does not indicate future results; mutual fund values fluctuate with markets. Read all scheme-related documents carefully before investing.
