VMPL
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], September 18: As India’s economy continues to expand, driven by rising consumption, increasing disposable incomes, and growing demand supported by lower interest rates, the country’s leading companies–sector leaders–are uniquely positioned to capitalise on these emerging opportunities and shape the future of the economy. With the possibility of increased affordability through expected reductions in GST rates across a range of product categories, these companies not only drive economic growth but also present investors with a significant opportunity to build long-term wealth.
In light of this promising opportunity, Tata AIA Life Insurance (Tata AIA), one of India’s most trusted life insurers, is launching two new funds that allow investors to back India’s sector leaders while ensuring their families’ financial security with life insurance protection.
* Tata AIA Sector Leaders Index Fund – Invests in India’s top-performing companies that dominate their respective sectors, offering investors an opportunity to create long-term wealth.
* Tata AIA Sector Leaders Index Pension Fund – Available through Tata AIA’s unit-linked pension solutions, this fund is designed to help customers build a robust retirement corpus through systematic investments in sector leaders.

Both funds will be available for subscription at an initial price of ₹10 per unit during the New Fund Offer (NFO) period, which ends on September 22nd, 2025. Moreover, with the new GST norm coming into effect on September 22nd, 2025, these fund charges will be exempted from GST.
Investors can participate through Tata AIA Life Insurance’s unit-linked solutions, providing the combined advantages of life insurance coverage and long-term wealth creation.
Harshad Patil, Chief Investment Officer, Tata AIA Life Insurance, explains, “India’s growth is being driven by sector leaders who are strategically positioned to capitalise on rising demand and favourable policies. Our newly launched Sector Leaders Index Funds benefit from investing in an index which uses a disciplined approach to identify these top-performing companies and employ a systematic investment strategy to benefit investors. These funds enable our policyholders to capitalise on the wealth creation potential of the equity markets, while also offering financial protection for their families through investment in our ULIP solutions, ensuring they remain ‘Har Waqt Ke Liye Taiyaar.'”
