Prashant Mahesh advises high-risk takers to consider the ICICI Prudential Energy Opportunities Fund, closing July 16, with a ₹5,000 minimum investment and 1% exit load within three months. Managed by Sankaran Naren and Nitya Mishra, it’s benchmarked to Nifty Energy TR Index. Rising energy needs and sector participation offer growth, but new investors should diversify.
