Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are -1.55%, 0% and 0%, and it sits in the High Risk category. Our view is that this is a fund for investors who can accept short-term swings and want exposure to a concentrated conglomerate strategy, but the return record so far is still short and uneven.<\/p>\n<p>The current setup looks more suitable for a patient investor who can tolerate volatility while the strategy builds a longer track record. The benchmark has also been weak over the same recent horizon, so the fund\u2019s near-term movement should be read in context rather than in isolation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

mixed but not unstable enough to look directionless. Over one month, the fund fell a little more than the benchmark, yet over three months and one year it stayed ahead of the benchmark because the index weakened more sharply.<\/p>\n<p>That matters because the fund is still very new, launched in late 2024, so the visible history is limited. The one-year path shows a fund that has moved through a difficult period without collapsing as far as the benchmark, which is a modest positive.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the three-year and five-year figures are not yet available in a meaningful way, so we cannot treat this as a mature long-term record. The main reading is that recent behaviour has been mixed, while the benchmark comparison has been favourable over the last three and twelve months.<\/p>\n<p>For now, the return picture suggests a strategy that is still forming its identity. Investors looking at the fund should focus more on how it behaves across shorter periods and how its portfolio is constructed than on any long-term compounding claim.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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_Aditya_Birla_SL_Conglomerate\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Aditya Birla SL Conglomerate?<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 Conglomerate?

The comparison is more nuanced on the longer horizon because the fund does not yet have usable 3-year or 5-year figures, whereas one peer already shows a strong 3-year number.

That combination suggests a structure with a meaningful core but also a longer tail of smaller positions, which may help reduce reliance on any one company even though the largest names still matter.<\/p>\n<p>Because the holdings are spread across oil, infrastructure, automobiles, trading, diversified businesses, finance, power, steel and IT, the fund may behave more like a multi-theme conglomerate basket than a narrow single-sector product. That breadth can add diversification within the scheme, but it can also keep the return pattern uneven when those themes move differently.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/aditya-birla-sl-conglomerate-fund-g-direct-plan\">Aditya Birla SL Conglomerate Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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 is suited to investors who are comfortable with High Risk products and can stay invested through uneven shorter-term performance. The one-year result is negative, but it has still held up better than the benchmark over three and twelve months, which tells us the fund can behave differently from the index in weak markets.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is that the portfolio is concentrated in a relatively small number of large positions, so returns may move sharply as a few holdings change direction. Investors with a medium-to-long horizon and a willingness to tolerate volatility may find the fund more relevant than those looking for steady short-term compounding.<\/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> 0.50% if units are sold on or before 90 days; no exit load after that period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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 Aditya Birla SL Conglomerate Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The current NAV is \u20b910.77 as of 15 Sep 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 -1.55%, while the 3-year and 5-year returns are 0% in the record provided for this launch stage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the fund compare with the benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>Over 1 month and 3 months, it moved in line with a weak market but stayed ahead of the benchmark over 3 months and 1 year.
