Jio BlackRock is back in the spotlight. The company just got SEBI’s green signal to launch four new passive mutual funds in India.
Out of these, three are equity index funds. These are:
- JioBlackRock Nifty Midcap 150 Index Fund
- JioBlackRock Nifty Next 50 Index Fund
- JioBlackRock Nifty Smallcap 250 Index Fund
The fourth one is a debt index fund, called the JioBlackRock Nifty 8-13 yr G-Sec Index Fund.
This move comes just days after the company closed its first-ever mutual fund offer. And that debut? Massive. Jio BlackRock raised ₹17,800 crore across three cash and debt schemes—Overnight Fund, Liquid Fund, and Money Market Fund.
Over 90 institutional investors and more than 67,000 retail investors jumped in during the three-day offer that ended on July 2, 2025. According to Jio BlackRock, this was one of the biggest openings ever in India’s cash/debt mutual fund space.

With that, Jio BlackRock Asset Management now ranks among the top 15 AMCs in India by debt AUM. Not bad for a first-timer.
In case you missed it, Jio BlackRock is a joint venture between Jio Financial Services (a Mukesh Ambani company) and BlackRock, the world’s biggest asset manager.
But this is just the beginning.
As per a Reuters report, Jio BlackRock plans to roll out around a dozen more funds by the end of 2025. These will include a mix of equity and debt funds, aimed at small investors. The twist? They want to skip middlemen, cut costs, and go direct-to-investor.
The plan is bold—combine Jio’s massive mobile user base with BlackRock’s Aladdin investment tech. The goal? To give Indians smarter, low-cost investment products.
India’s young investors want simple, smart, and affordable options. Jio BlackRock is building exactly that. With scale, speed, and strategy, they’re here to change the game.
