Sharing the rationale behind launching this fund, a senior official of the fund house said, "In the budget 2017, the government has given a thrust to affordable housing sector. In fact, we have seen growing demand of housing sector among investors. Hence, we plan to launch a fund focussing on housing sector."

The fund house plans to introduce three plans in the scheme depending on the tenure ranging between 24 and 66 months.  

The scheme will invest a minimum of 70% in equity instruments of entities in housing and its allied business activities, which include the cement and steel industries. The fund can also take exposure of up to 10% of corpus in REITS and InvITs. It will also invest up to 30% in debt and money market instruments.

HDFC Housing Opportunities Fund is the first housing-oriented fund to seek SEBI approval. Experts say the fund is suitable for investors having high-risk appetite.

Srinivas Rao Ravuri will manage this fund.
