Zerodha Gold ETF, launched by Zerodha Mutual Fund on February 16, 2024, is an open-ended scheme aiming to mimic the returns of domestic gold prices, minus associated fees and expenses. It primarily invests in physical gold, offering investors indirect exposure to the yellow metal without having to hold it physically. This new fund offering (NFO) is open for subscription until February 21, 2024, with a minimum investment requirement of Rs 500.

Essentially, by investing in this ETF, you’re tracking the performance of gold without dealing with the hassles of physical storage, insurance, and security. Remember, the returns will closely mirror the domestic gold price movement, except for minor tracking errors and fund management fees.

This NFO is suitable for investors who are seeking, long-term capital appreciation and investment in gold to generate returns similar to the performance of the gold, subject to tracking errors.
