Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are -7.38%, 0% and 0%, so the short history is still thin and the fund has not yet built a long return track record.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that this fund suits investors who are comfortable with sharp swings and want a thematic consumption exposure rather than a broad market core. The portfolio is built around large consumer-facing businesses, but recent return behaviour has lagged the benchmark and the track record is still short.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

uneven. Over 1 month, the fund fell more than the benchmark, which points to a weaker short-term patch. Over 3 months, it turned positive while the benchmark remained negative, so the fund did better in the more recent recovery phase.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-year return is still negative, but it is only slightly better than the benchmark. That tells us the fund has broadly tracked a difficult market backdrop rather than consistently outperforming it. For an index fund, that kind of small gap matters because it can show whether the strategy is holding up close to its reference index.<\/p>\n<p>The time pattern also matters. The 1-year path includes several swings rather than a smooth climb, so this is not the sort of exposure that behaves like a steady defensive allocation. Our view is that the recent rebound does not yet change the longer story: the fund still needs more time in market conditions that can show whether its consumption tilt adds durability beyond brief recovery bursts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 11 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_SBI_Nifty_India_Consumption_Index\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD SBI Nifty India Consumption Index?<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 SBI Nifty India Consumption Index?

That means the recent comparison is less about outperformance and more about whether the fund has simply stayed close to its reference line.<\/p>\n<p>For 3-year and 5-year horizons, the comparison is limited because the fund and most peers do not yet have readable long-horizon figures. The one peer with a 3-year result shows a very different return profile, so the short-term gap is more useful here than any attempt to force a long-term comparison.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 11 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>Bharti Airtel Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Telecom<\/td>\n<td>9.4%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mahindra &amp; Mahindra Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>8.59%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ITC Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>7.22%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Eternal Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Retailing<\/td>\n<td>6.96%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Titan Company Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Diamond &amp; Jewellery<\/td>\n<td>6.18%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Maruti Suzuki India Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>5.18%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hindustan Unilever Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>5.12%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bajaj Auto Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>3.94%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Asian Paints Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Chemicals<\/td>\n<td>3.52%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Interglobe Aviation Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Aviation<\/td>\n<td>3.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest holding, Bharti Airtel Ltd., carries a 9.4% weight, so it can have greater influence on day-to-day portfolio movement than any single smaller position. The top 10 positions together account for 59.58% of the portfolio, which is meaningful but not extreme for a focused index strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The weight drop from the largest holding to the tenth holding is noticeable, moving from 9.4% to 3.47%. That tells us the portfolio is not evenly spread across all names; the first few positions are likely to matter more than the tail when returns shift. At the same time, the decline is not so sharp that the portfolio depends on only one or two names.<\/p>\n<p>There are 30 disclosed holdings in total, so the disclosed book has a longer tail beyond the top 10. Our view is that this creates a mix of concentration and breadth: the leading names are important, but the remaining holdings may still contribute to diversification across consumer-linked businesses.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/sbi-nifty-india-consumption-index-fund-g-direct-plan\">SBI Nifty India Consumption Index Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 11 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 better suited to investors with high risk tolerance and a medium-to-long investment horizon.
