Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 0%, 0% and 0%, and the scheme is tagged as Balanced Risk.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that this is a short-horizon liquid portfolio with a conservative-looking asset mix, but the return record is still too short to build a meaningful track record. The portfolio is concentrated in cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, treasury bills and commercial paper, so the fund is shaped more by liquidity and short-duration instruments than by equity-style market swings.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div

Over 1 month, the fund has been steadier than the benchmark, which stayed negative over the same window. Over 3 months, the benchmark has moved ahead, so the fund has not been the stronger short-term performer across every recent stretch.<\/p>\n<p>The daily pattern is important here because it looks calm rather than erratic. The fund has not shown sharp drawdowns in the observed periods, and that is consistent with a liquid strategy built around cash, repos, CDs and treasury bills.<\/p>\n<p>Because the scheme was launched only in December 2025, the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year return fields are not available in a meaningful way yet. That means we can judge the fund\u2019s early behaviour, but not its long-run compounding record. In that sense, the benchmark comparison is more useful for the recent windows than for any long-term verdict.<\/p>\n<p>For investors, the key point is that the fund has behaved like a stability-oriented product in the short run, but the evidence base is still limited. We would treat the recent numbers as a starting point, not as proof of how the scheme will behave through a full market cycle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 30 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_Abakkus_Liquid\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Abakkus Liquid?<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 Abakkus Liquid?

Ltd. under SEBI Registered Investment Adviser registration INA000017639.<\/p>\n<p>The comparison is shaped by the fund\u2019s short history. The current scheme cannot yet be compared on 1-year, 3-year or 5-year returns in the same way as the longer-running liquid funds, while the peer group is already showing mid-6% return profiles across those horizons. That makes the current fund look early-stage rather than fully established.<\/p>\n<p>For the shorter windows, the fund\u2019s early behaviour looks calm, but the peer funds with available history have clearly built more complete return records. The short-term numbers for this scheme are therefore more useful for observing stability than for matching it against older liquid funds on a long-term basis.<\/p>\n<p>In our view, the comparison tells two different stories: the current fund appears measured and low-volatility in the recent period, while the peers with longer histories show what a mature liquid return profile has looked like over time. That difference matters for investors who want an established history rather than a newly launched portfolio.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 30 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<p>The market-cap mix is fully outside the equity spectrum: large-cap 0%, mid-cap 0%, small-cap 0% and other cap 100%. That is consistent with a liquid fund structure where the portfolio is built around non-equity instruments.<\/p>\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>CASH &amp; CASH EQUIVALENTS AND NET ASSETS<\/td>\n<td>30.16%<\/td>\n<td>CLEARING CORPORATION OF INDIA LTD (27.12%); TRIPARTY REPO (3.39%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT<\/td>\n<td>23.57%<\/td>\n<td>AXIS BANK LIMITED (18\/08\/2026) ** # (1.86%); CANARA BANK (14\/08\/2026) # (1.68%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TREASURY BILLS<\/td>\n<td>22.1%<\/td>\n<td>182 DAYS TBILL (MD 12\/02\/2026) (2.89%); 364 DAYS TBILL (MD 23\/04\/2026) (2.43%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>COMMERCIAL PAPER<\/td>\n<td>20.4%<\/td>\n<td>MOTILAL OSWAL FINANCIAL SERVICES LIMITED (11\/05\/2026) ** (1.98%); TATA CAPITAL HOUSING FINANCE LIMITED (13\/07\/2026) ** (1.85%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CORPORATE DEBT<\/td>\n<td>3.65%<\/td>\n<td>6.09% POWER FINANCE CORPORATION LIMITED (27\/08\/2026) ** (0.97%); 7.8650% LIC HOUSING FINANCE LIMITED (20\/08\/2026) ** (0.87%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The portfolio is dominated by short-duration and cash-style instruments rather than a single equity-like theme. The largest sector, cash and cash equivalents, is meaningfully higher than the other buckets, but the next three sectors are also substantial, which helps prevent the portfolio from leaning on just one sleeve.<\/p>\n<p>Among the visible holdings, Clearing Corporation of India Ltd carries the single largest weight at 27.12%, so it is likely to have the greatest influence on day-to-day portfolio behaviour. Even so, that influence sits within a broader mix of treasury bills, certificates of deposit and commercial paper, which may support liquidity and limit large swings.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that the structure is consistent with a fund whose main job is to stay liquid and relatively steady. The 100% other-cap classification reinforces that this is not a market-cap-driven equity portfolio, and the overall balance suggests the cash and short-term debt components could remain the main drivers of returns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 30 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 are comfortable with a low-to-moderate risk liquid strategy and who value short-term parking of money over long-horizon compounding. The Balanced Risk tag and the cash-heavy portfolio make it more relevant for investors seeking stability than for those searching for equity-like growth.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is that the structure may help preserve liquidity and keep day-to-day movement contained, but it does not yet have a long performance history to lean on. Investors with a short to medium holding horizon and a preference for relatively steady behaviour may find the setup more appropriate than those who need a mature multi-year record.<\/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>0.007% for Day 1, 0.0065% on Day 2, 0.0060% on Day 3, 0.0055% on Day 4, 0.0050% on Day 5, 0.0045% on Day 6, NIL on or after 7D<\/li>\n<li>No exit load after holding period<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 30 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<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_current_NAV_of_Abakkus_Liquid_Fund_Direct_Growth_Plan\"><\/span>What is the current NAV of Abakkus Liquid Fund Direct Growth Plan?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The current NAV is \u20b9104.251 as of 30 August 2026.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_funds_1-year_3-year_and_5-year_returns\"><\/span>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year return figures are not available in a meaningful way yet because the scheme was launched on 12 December 2025.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_has_the_fund_performed_versus_the_benchmark_recently\"><\/span>How has the fund performed versus the benchmark recently?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Over 1 month, the fund has done better than the benchmark, while over 3 months the benchmark has been ahead.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_minimum_SIP_amount\"><\/span>What is the minimum SIP amount?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The minimum SIP amount is \u20b9500.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight:700\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_risk_category_and_what_does_the_portfolio_look_like\"><\/span>What is the risk category and what does the portfolio look like?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The fund is tagged as Balanced Risk.
