\n| REALTY<\/td>\n | 4.6%<\/td>\n | BRIGADE ENTERPRISES LIMITED (3.92%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n The sector mix is dominated by banks, and that single allocation is materially larger than the next visible sector. In our view, that makes the bank sleeve the clearest influence on portfolio behaviour, while government securities and corporate debt can provide a stabilising layer around it.<\/p>\n The large-cap share is higher than the mid-cap and small-cap shares combined, so the fund is anchored in larger businesses rather than in smaller, more volatile names. At the same time, the presence of mid caps, small caps and a sizable other bucket means the portfolio is not narrowly concentrated in one style of equity exposure.<\/p>\n For investors, the important point is that the fund combines a dominant financial-sector position with meaningful debt exposure. That mix may help temper some equity volatility, but it can still move materially because the bank allocation is far ahead of the other sectors.<\/p>\n Source data date: as of 28 Aug 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<\/span>Who should invest<\/span><\/h2>\nThis fund suits investors who can handle High Risk volatility and who are comfortable giving the investment a long horizon. The 1-year return has been weaker than the 3-year and 5-year results, so it is better viewed as a fund where patience matters.<\/p>\n It may appeal to investors who want a children\u2019s-oriented solution with a benchmark that it has generally beaten across the visible periods, while also accepting that peers in the same space have delivered stronger medium-term results. The main trade-off is that the portfolio\u2019s bank-heavy shape can drive the outcome, even though debt holdings may soften the ride somewhat.<\/p>\n <\/span>Tax and exit load<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n| Holding period<\/th>\n | Tax rate<\/th>\n | Description<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n | \n\n| Units held less than 1 year<\/td>\n | 20%<\/td>\n | Short-term capital gains tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Units held more than 1 year<\/td>\n | 12.5%<\/td>\n | Long-term capital gains tax<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Exit load: No exit load after holding period.<\/p>\n Source data date: as of 28 Aug 2026<\/small><\/p>\n<\/span>Frequently asked questions<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/span>What is the current NAV of Axis Children’s Fund-Compulsory Lock in Direct Growth Plan?<\/span><\/h3>\nThe current NAV is \u20b930.5341 as of 28 Aug 2026.<\/p>\n <\/span>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/span><\/h3>\nThe fund\u2019s returns are 5.2385% for 1 year, 10.1887% for 3 years and 7.6609% for 5 years.<\/p>\n <\/span>How has the fund performed versus the benchmark?<\/span><\/h3>\nIt has stayed ahead of Nifty 50 across all the visible periods, including a 1-year return of 5.24% versus -2.29% for the benchmark.<\/p>\n <\/span>What is the minimum SIP amount?<\/span><\/h3>\nThe minimum SIP amount is \u20b91000.<\/p>\n <\/span>Who manages the fund?<\/span><\/h3>\nThe fund is managed by Jayesh Sundar, Devang Shah, Hardik Shah and Krishnaa N.<\/p>\n <\/span>What is the exit load and risk profile?<\/span><\/h3>\nThe fund has no exit load after the holding period and is classified as High Risk.
