The main objective of the such products is to provide investors with an alternative during market-decline and in the case where they cannot short sell the index. This type of fund is generally linked to the market index such as the Nifty 50 Total Returns Inverse Index. The value of such funds change similar to the traditional funds, on a daily basis, say if the index declines by 1 percent in a day, the fund value increases by 1 percent for that day. How does these funds benefit retail investors or traders? Many investors,rather traders, can make use of this type of fund as a hedge against market conditions.Hedg
