Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 2.12%, 11.62% and 10.78%, and the scheme sits in the High Risk category. Our view is that it fits investors who can accept equity volatility in exchange for long-term participation in large-cap-led growth, but the recent 1-year pattern has been softer than the multi-year record.<\/p>\n<p>The fund\u2019s long-term profile is steadier than its latest 1-year outcome, and the portfolio is heavily tilted toward large caps with a strong bank exposure. That mix can support relative stability versus more mid- and small-cap-heavy funds, but it also means returns may be shaped by a few large sector bets.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

recent picture is better than the benchmark in all five periods, but the scale of outperformance varies. The 1-month result was only mildly positive, while the 3-month and 1-year numbers show a clearer cushion versus the Nifty 50. That tells us the fund has handled a mixed market backdrop better than the index over the recent cycle.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-year path also looks uneven, with a notable dip before recovery, which suggests the fund was not moving in a straight line through the period. Even so, the closing position is positive, while the benchmark remained negative over 1 year. That contrast matters because it shows the fund was able to recover more effectively than the index during a volatile stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Over 3 years and 5 years, the fund has compounded at 11.62% and 10.78%, versus 6.40% and 7.13% for the benchmark. In our view, that is the more important part of the record: the longer horizon shows a persistent edge rather than a one-off short burst. The trade-off is that the risk category is High Risk, so the path to those returns has still involved equity-style drawdowns and periods of stagnation.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the return pattern says the fund has been stronger than the benchmark over both shorter and longer horizons, with the more convincing evidence coming from the 3-year and 5-year numbers rather than the latest 1-year stretch alone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 28 Aug 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_Aditya_Birla_SL_Large_Cap\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Aditya Birla SL Large 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 Aditya Birla SL Large Cap?

That makes the recent stretch look more modest than the peer set\u2019s stronger short-term results. The longer view is more balanced: its 3-year return is below the better peer figures but still sits close enough to show a credible multi-year record, while its 5-year return is available and shows a steady compound outcome.<\/p>\n<p>The peer set also tells a mixed story because one fund does not have a usable 5-year figure and another lacks both 3-year and 5-year figures. Against the peers with full longer-term numbers, this fund\u2019s 5-year return is competitive but not the highest, which suggests its appeal rests more on consistency across market cycles than on the fastest growth in the table.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 28 Aug 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>Market-cap bucket<\/th>\n<th>Weight<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Large cap<\/td>\n<td>79.42%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mid cap<\/td>\n<td>10.69%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Small cap<\/td>\n<td>7.52%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Other<\/td>\n<td>2.37%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Sector<\/th>\n<th>Weight<\/th>\n<th>Top holdings<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>BANK<\/td>\n<td>38.32%<\/td>\n<td>Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited (18.09%), ICICI Bank Limited (4.69%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>RETAILING<\/td>\n<td>8.91%<\/td>\n<td>Trent Ltd (5.37%), Eternal Limited (1.33%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>AUTOMOBILE &amp; ANCILLARIES<\/td>\n<td>6.66%<\/td>\n<td>Mahindra &amp; Mahindra Limited (2.18%), Maruti Suzuki India Limited (1.04%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>6.17%<\/td>\n<td>Infosys Limited (3.02%), HCL Technologies Limited (0.97%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>INFRASTRUCTURE<\/td>\n<td>5.07%<\/td>\n<td>Larsen &amp; Toubro Limited (2.48%), IRB Infrastructure Developers Limited (1.6%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The market-cap mix is clearly tilted to large caps, which account for 79.42% of the portfolio. Mid caps at 10.69% and small caps at 7.52% add some growth potential, but they do not change the fact that this remains a large-cap-led fund.<\/p>\n<p>Among sectors, bank exposure is materially larger than the rest at 38.32%. Retailing at 8.91% and automobile &amp; ancillary at 6.66% are far smaller, so banks are likely to have greater influence on portfolio behaviour than any other sector. Within that bank bucket, Kotak Mahindra Bank Limited carries a particularly large 18.09% weight, which can make the portfolio more sensitive to movements in that stock.<\/p>\n<p>In practical terms, the allocation looks concentrated enough to matter, but not so broad-based that any single smaller sector dominates the outcome. Our view is that the large-cap bias may reduce some volatility relative to more mid- and small-cap-heavy funds, while the strong bank tilt can still make near-term performance dependent on financials.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 28 Aug 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 who can accept High Risk and are comfortable with equity-style drawdowns in pursuit of long-term growth. The 1-year outcome has been modest, but the 3-year and 5-year records are stronger and have held up better than the benchmark, which makes the fund more suitable for patient investors than for short-horizon users.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is that the portfolio is heavily tilted to large caps and especially banks, so returns may be influenced by a narrow set of sectors even though the large-cap base offers some stability. Investors with a 3- to 5-year horizon and a tolerance for uneven short-term moves may find the profile easier to understand than those who need smoother month-to-month outcomes.<\/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><strong>Exit load<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1% if units are sold on or before 90 days.<\/li>\n<li>Nil after 90 days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 28 Aug 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 Aditya Birla SL Large Cap Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The current NAV is \u20b9585.31 as of 28 Aug 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>Its 1-year return is 2.12%, its 3-year return is 11.62%, and its 5-year return is 10.78%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the fund compare with the benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It has outpaced the Nifty 50 across 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years.

The latest 1-year return is modest, but the 3-year and 5-year records are stronger and sit ahead of the benchmark, which suggests the fund has rewarded patient holding periods more reliably than recent market noise. Its High Risk profile and bank-heavy large-cap mix mean investors should expect equity swings, but the portfolio also leans toward established businesses rather than broad small-cap exposure. That makes it more suitable for long-horizon investors who can accept concentrated sector influence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"univest-posted-at\" style=\"font-size:14px;color:#666;margin:20px 0 8px\">Published on 31 August 2026 at 12:50 PM IST<\/p>\n<section class=\"univest-login-cta\" style=\"margin:28px 0;padding:24px;border-radius:10px;background:#eef5ff;border:1px solid #cddff7;text-align:center\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Explore_mutual_funds_with_Univest\"><\/span>Explore mutual funds with Univest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Review mutual fund data, compare performance and explore fund insights on Univest.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/user\/log-in\" style=\"display:inline-block;padding:11px 20px;border-radius:6px;background:#1f4e79;color:#fff !important;text-decoration:none;font-weight:700\">Explore Univest<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"univest-disclaimer\">\n<h2 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RIA_disclosure\"><\/span>RIA disclosure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Mutual fund investments are subject to market risks.
