Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 15.75%, 15.52% and 15.14%, and the fund is tagged as High Risk. Our view is that it has delivered a steady long-term return profile, but its recent numbers still reflect a meaningful equity swing, so it fits investors who can tolerate sharp moves and want a flexi-cap approach with active stock selection.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme has outpaced the benchmark over the longer horizons in the available record, while the most recent stretch has been more uneven. That makes it more suitable for a patient investor than for someone who wants a smooth ride.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey

fund\u2019s short-term pattern is mixed rather than one-way. The 1-month figure is negative, but it still held up better than the benchmark, and the 3-month number shows a sharper rebound than the index. That combination suggests the portfolio can move around more than a plain index exposure, but it has also shown the ability to recover quickly after softer patches.<\/p>\n<p>The longer view is more constructive. The 1-year return is well ahead of the benchmark, and that gap carries through the 3-year and 5-year figures as well. In our view, that points to a portfolio that has added value through active positioning rather than simply tracking the market. The trade-off is that the path has not been smooth, so the return profile may suit investors who can stay invested through uneven months.<\/p>\n<p>Even with that stronger multi-year outcome, the recent 1-month decline reminds us that the fund is not a low-volatility option. The return pattern looks cyclical, with stronger phases followed by pullbacks. For long holding periods, that may be acceptable if the investor is comfortable with equity-style swings and wants a fund that has historically done better than the benchmark over full cycles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 09 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<section class=\"univest-mf-premium-cta\" style=\"margin:28px 0;padding:24px;border-radius:10px;border:1px solid #d8e3f0;background:#f7faff\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Should_you_BUY_or_HOLD_Quant_Flexi_Cap\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Quant Flexi Cap?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A fund&#8217;s past returns alone don&#8217;t tell you whether you should buy it today or continue holding it.<\/p>\n<p>The right decision depends on factors such as your current allocation, purchase price, risk profile, investment horizon and the role this fund plays in your overall portfolio.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Already holding Quant Flexi Cap?

On recent performance, the fund trails the strongest 1-year peer numbers in this set, but the comparison is less one-sided over longer horizons because most peers do not have 3-year or 5-year figures available here. Against the peers that do show longer records, the fund\u2019s 3-year return is lower than ICICI Pru Strategic Metal and Energy Equity FoF Direct Growth Plan, yet its own 5-year number remains a solid long-term figure. The short-term and long-term pictures are therefore different: recent peer returns are stronger in the narrower comparison, while the fund\u2019s own multi-year record still looks durable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 09 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<div class=\"univest-peer-login-cta\" style=\"margin:20px 0;padding:16px 18px;border:1px solid #d8e3f0;border-radius:8px;background:#f7faff\">\n<p style=\"margin:0\"><strong>Want to know more?<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in\" style=\"font-weight:700;text-decoration:none\">Log in to Univest<\/a> for more mutual fund insights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Portfolio_where_your_money_goes\"><\/span>Portfolio: where your money goes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Holding<\/th>\n<th>Sector<\/th>\n<th>Weight<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Samvardhana Motherson International Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>9.63%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Adani Enterprises Limited<\/td>\n<td>Trading<\/td>\n<td>7.87%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Adani Power Limited<\/td>\n<td>Power<\/td>\n<td>7.72%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Aurobindo Pharma Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>7.01%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ICICI Prudential AMC Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Equities<\/td>\n<td>5.61%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tata Consultancy Services Limited 29\/09\/2026<\/td>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>4.54%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Reliance Industries Limited 29\/09\/2026<\/td>\n<td>Crude Oil<\/td>\n<td>3.88%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Adani Green Energy Limited<\/td>\n<td>Power<\/td>\n<td>3.46%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Adani Energy Solutions Limited<\/td>\n<td>Power<\/td>\n<td>3.40%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Infosys Limited 29\/09\/2026<\/td>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>3.32%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 56.44% of the portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/quant-flexi-cap-fund-g-direct-plan\">Quant Flexi Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p>The largest holding is Samvardhana Motherson International Ltd at 9.63%, which is sizeable enough to matter on its own but not so large that it overwhelms the rest of the portfolio. The gap from the first holding to the tenth is moderate rather than extreme, with the top names still staying within a fairly tight band around the mid-single digits. That pattern suggests the portfolio is tilted toward a set of meaningful core positions rather than a single dominant bet.<\/p>\n<p>The 56.44% combined weight of the displayed holdings indicates that more than half the portfolio sits in the ten largest positions, while 32 holdings are disclosed in total. Our view is that this points to a moderately concentrated structure: the top positions could have greater influence on outcomes, but there is still enough breadth below the top tier to avoid full dependence on one or two names. The mix across automobile, trading, power, healthcare and IT also shows that the portfolio is not locked into one narrow theme.<\/p>\n<p>This kind of structure may appeal to investors who are comfortable with active stock selection and do not mind seeing individual holdings matter meaningfully to returns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 09 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_should_invest\"><\/span>Who should invest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This fund suits investors with a high risk tolerance and a medium-to-long investment horizon. The return record is strongest over 1, 3 and 5 years versus the benchmark, but the recent 1-month decline shows that the journey can still be uneven.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is between stronger long-term upside potential and shorter-term volatility. The portfolio\u2019s concentrated top holdings and equity-heavy exposure mean it may reward patient investors, but it can also test discipline during pullbacks. In our view, it is better suited to investors who want active flexi-cap exposure and can stay committed through market swings.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tax_and_exit_load\"><\/span>Tax and exit load<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Holding period<\/th>\n<th>Tax rate<\/th>\n<th>Description<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Units held less than 1 year<\/td>\n<td>20%<\/td>\n<td>Short-term capital gains tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Units held more than 1 year<\/td>\n<td>12.5%<\/td>\n<td>Long-term capital gains tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Exit load: 1% if units are sold on or before 15 days; nil after 15 days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 09 Sep 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>What is the current NAV of Quant Flexi Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>It is \u20b9121.7712 as of 09 Sep 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>The returns are 15.75% for 1 year, 15.52% for 3 years and 15.14% for 5 years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the fund compare with the benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It has beaten the Nifty 50 over 1 year, 3 years and 5 years.
