Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 3.58%, 0% and 0% respectively, and the scheme sits in the High Risk category. On current evidence, this looks like a fund with a limited live return history but a portfolio built around large, market-linked positions rather than broad defensive stability.<\/p>\n<p>The main takeaway is that the fund has held up better than the benchmark over the last year, but the longer-term track record is still too short to judge with confidence. For investors who can tolerate a High Risk equity allocation and want a dividend-yield style portfolio, it may be worth monitoring, but the return history is still developing.<\/p>\n<div

than the benchmark. Over 1 month, the fund fell less than the benchmark, and over 3 months it gained more clearly than the index, which points to a stronger short-term run than the broader market.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-year figure is also important because it shows the fund ahead of the benchmark by a wide margin on a relative basis, even though the absolute return is still modest. That kind of spread usually matters more than the headline number alone when an equity fund has not yet built a long history.<\/p>\n<p>We would read the return pattern as a mixed but improving picture. The shorter windows suggest recovery and resilience after weaker patches, while the absence of 3-year and 5-year figures means there is not yet enough history to judge whether this behaviour is durable across a full market cycle.<\/p>\n<p>In our view, the key point is that the fund has done better than the benchmark over the periods where it has a visible track record, but the short operating history keeps the longer-term verdict open.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 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_Baroda_BNP_Paribas_Dividend_Yield\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Baroda BNP Paribas Dividend Yield?<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 Baroda BNP Paribas Dividend Yield?

That makes the current fund look earlier in its performance journey than the better-established schemes in this group.<\/p>\n<p>The interesting contrast is that the fund\u2019s short-term behaviour has improved versus the benchmark, yet its peer comparison still shows a sizable gap on longer windows where other schemes have more complete track records. In other words, the recent trend is more encouraging than the multi-year comparison.<\/p>\n<p>Because the current fund does not yet have usable 3-year or 5-year figures, we would place more weight on the short-window comparison and treat the peer gap as a reminder that the longer record still needs time to build.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 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>Reliance Industries Limited<\/td>\n<td>Crude Oil<\/td>\n<td>6.36%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ICICI Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>5.5%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Larsen &amp; Toubro Limited<\/td>\n<td>Infrastructure<\/td>\n<td>4.63%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HDFC Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>4.41%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Torrent Pharmaceuticals Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>4.16%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Clearing Corporation of India Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>3.87%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ge Vernova T&amp;D India Limited<\/td>\n<td>Capital Goods<\/td>\n<td>3.76%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Glaxosmithkline Pharmaceuticals Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>3.28%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Divi&#8217;S Laboratories Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>3.24%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Radico Khaitan Limited<\/td>\n<td>Alcohol<\/td>\n<td>3.04%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest holding is Reliance Industries Limited at 6.36%, which is meaningful but not extreme on its own.

That is a relatively modest spread, which suggests the portfolio is not built around a single outsized bet among the visible top holdings.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 42.25% of the portfolio, and the scheme discloses 43 holdings in total. That points to a portfolio that is partly concentrated at the top but still spread across a longer tail of positions, which may soften the influence of any one stock while keeping the strategy fairly focused.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/baroda-bnp-paribas-dividend-yield-fund-g-direct-plan\">Baroda BNP Paribas Dividend Yield Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 10 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 who are comfortable with High Risk equity exposure and who can stay invested long enough for the strategy to play out.
