Chirag Mehta's Role in Quantum Flexi Cap Fund
Quantum Flexi Cap Fund is an open-ended equity scheme that invests across large-cap, mid-cap and small-cap companies. Chirag Mehta is associated with the scheme as its Fund Manager, with Ketan Gujarathi also associated with the fund-management team.
The scheme's investment approach allows allocation across market-cap segments rather than restricting the portfolio to a single segment. The investment process is supported by Quantum's research framework and fundamental analysis.
Chirag's broader experience across equity research, asset allocation and portfolio management is relevant to his role across Quantum's equity strategies. However, his designation should be understood as part of the wider fund-management and research process rather than as an individual attribution of a scheme's investment outcome.
