HDFC Defence Fund adds Cochin Shipyard & INDO-MIM, increases stake in HAL, Mazagon Dock, 5 others

In July, the HDFC Defence Fund made significant moves by adding Cochin Shipyard and INDO-MIM to its portfolio. The fund also augmented its investments in Hindustan Aeronautics and Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders, while expanding its holdings in five additional defence sector stocks. However, it opted to reduce its stakes in three companies, including Aequs, leaving the fund's portfolio with a total of twenty-four varied defence-related stocks.
