Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 21.71%, 0% and 0%, respectively, and the scheme is tagged as High Risk.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that this is a thematic index fund for investors who can tolerate sharp swings and want focused exposure to the capital-market ecosystem. The recent return profile is better than the benchmark over 1 year, but the short history means the longer track record is still building.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65

uneven, but the 1-year number stands out because the fund has moved well ahead of the benchmark over that period. The 1-month return is less weak than the benchmark, while the 3-month figure is slightly below the benchmark, which tells us the path has not been smooth even though the year-long outcome is strong.<\/p>\n<p>The shorter history matters here. The fund was launched in December 2024, so there is no genuine 3-year or 5-year record to judge the compounding pattern over a full market cycle. That means the 1-year figure is useful, but it should not be read as proof that the same pattern will persist.<\/p>\n<p>The movement pattern over the recent periods suggests a fund that can participate strongly when the underlying capital-market theme is in favour, but can also feel choppy over shorter windows. In our view, that is consistent with a focused index strategy rather than a broad market portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>Against the benchmark, the fund is clearly ahead over 1 year, but the last 3 months have been more mixed. For an investor, the main takeaway is that recent strength is real, yet it sits inside a short track record and a volatile short-term path.<\/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_Motilal_Oswal_Nifty_Capital_Market_Index\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Motilal Oswal Nifty Capital Market 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 Motilal Oswal Nifty Capital Market Index?

On available 1-year return data, this fund sits below the strongest peer shown, but still above some of the other thematic index funds in the list. The available longer-term figures are limited for the current fund, so the comparison is more useful for judging recent momentum than for measuring sustained compounding.<\/p>\n<p>That difference matters. Some peers have multi-year records in the table, while this fund does not yet have a 3-year or 5-year history because of its short life. So the peer view currently says more about the strength of the theme in recent markets than about how this particular scheme behaves across a full cycle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 15 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>MULTI COMMODITY EXCHANGE OF INDIA LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>19.69%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BSE LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>16.84%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HDFC ASSET MANAGEMENT COMPANY LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>12.13%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>360 ONE WAM LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>6.91%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CENTRAL DEPOSITORY SERVICES (INDIA) LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Business Services<\/td>\n<td>5.67%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>NIPPON LIFE INDIA ASSET MANAGEMENT LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>4.77%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ANAND RATHI WEALTH LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>4.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>COMPUTER AGE MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Business Services<\/td>\n<td>4.26%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ANGEL ONE LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>4.23%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>MOTILAL OSWAL FINANCIAL SERVICES LIMITED<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>3.7%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest holding is MULTI COMMODITY EXCHANGE OF INDIA LIMITED at 19.69%, so it is likely to have the greatest single influence on fund behaviour among the disclosed names. The weight then falls quite quickly through BSE LIMITED at 16.84% and HDFC ASSET MANAGEMENT COMPANY LIMITED at 12.13%, which tells us the portfolio starts with a heavy tilt toward a few large positions.<\/p>\n<p>By the tenth holding, the weight is down to 3.7%, so the drop from the top name to the bottom of the disclosed top 10 is steep. That pattern suggests the fund may not be evenly spread across the holding list, even though the disclosed portfolio is still diversified across 10 individual companies and 17 total holding rows.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 disclosed holdings account for approximately 82.67% of the portfolio. In our view, that level points to meaningful concentration in the leading names, while the remaining holdings form a longer tail that may soften but not eliminate single-stock influence. For a thematic index fund, that is a natural feature rather than an exception.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/motilal-oswal-nifty-capital-market-index-fund-g-direct-plan\">Motilal Oswal Nifty Capital Market Index 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 suits investors who are comfortable with High Risk and can tolerate sharp moves in pursuit of theme-led returns. The recent 1-year performance has been stronger than the benchmark, but the 3-month tone is weaker than the 1-month reading, so a longer holding period is important if an investor wants to ride out short-term swings.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is concentration. The portfolio is focused on capital-market names, and the top holdings carry a large share of the disclosed portfolio, so returns may rise and fall more sharply than with a broad diversified equity fund. In our view, that makes it more suitable for investors who want thematic exposure and can stay invested through volatile stretches rather than those looking for a smoother ride.<\/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> 1% on or before 15D, Nil after 15D<\/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 Motilal Oswal Nifty Capital Market Index Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The current NAV is \u20b912.5053 as of 15 Sep 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>The 1-year return is 21.71%, while the 3-year and 5-year returns are not available because the fund has a short history.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has the fund done versus its benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It has outpaced the benchmark over 1 year, while the 1-month and 3-month numbers have been more mixed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does it compare with the peer funds shown?<\/strong><br \/>Its 1-year return is below the strongest peer shown, but it is ahead of some other thematic index funds in the comparison set.
