Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 6.42%, Data not available and Data not available, and the scheme carries a High Risk label.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that this is a multi-asset hybrid fund with a relatively short listed history and a portfolio that mixes cash-like assets, government securities, gold exposure and selected equities. The recent return profile has stayed ahead of the benchmark\u2019s weak stretch, but the longer record is too limited to support a strong long-term verdict.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

noticeably steadier than the benchmark. The fund was positive over 1 month, 3 months and 1 year, while the benchmark stayed negative across the same periods. That tells us the portfolio has been able to soften the recent weakness in the broader market reference.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-year return of 6.42% is the strongest available trailing figure, and it matters more here because the fund was launched on 24 December 2024. That means the longer-term track record is still developing, so we place more weight on how the fund behaved through a full year than on any imagined long-cycle outcome.<\/p>\n<p>The daily pattern also looks choppy rather than smooth. The fund has had periods of small dips and recoveries, but the overall direction over the past year has been upward. In our view, that is consistent with a multi-asset mix that can use different return drivers, even though the benchmark comparison suggests the fund has been much more resilient than the Nifty 50 in this window.<\/p>\n<p>Because the 3-year and 5-year figures are not available, we do not read too much into the short record. The key message is that the fund has held up better than the benchmark recently, but investors still do not have a mature long-run history to judge how persistent that advantage may be.<\/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_Samco_Multi_Asset_Allocation\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Samco Multi Asset Allocation?<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 Samco Multi Asset Allocation?

That does not change the fact that the fund has still remained ahead of the benchmark over the same period, which is an important distinction for a hybrid allocation strategy.<\/p>\n<p>For 3-year and 5-year comparison, only Quant Multi Asset Allocation Fund Direct Growth Plan has longer history available, and its figures are materially higher than this fund\u2019s limited record. The short-term and longer-term views therefore point in different directions: the recent benchmark-relative defence looks constructive, but the peer set with longer history has delivered much stronger compounding.<\/p>\n<p>That mix suggests the fund is still in an early evidence stage, where the main question is not whether it can beat every peer immediately, but whether the current pattern can persist once a longer track record builds.<\/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>Clearing Corporation of India Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>20.64%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7.38% Government of India (20\/06\/2027)<\/td>\n<td>Government Securities<\/td>\n<td>11.38%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Gold October 2026 Future<\/td>\n<td>Derivatives-Futures<\/td>\n<td>9.65%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Gujarat Themis Biosyn Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>4.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Apar Industries Limited<\/td>\n<td>Capital Goods<\/td>\n<td>2.38%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Laurus Labs Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>1.71%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HFCL Limited<\/td>\n<td>Telecom<\/td>\n<td>1.67%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Nippon India ETF Gold Bees<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Mutual Funds Units &#8211; Gold<\/td>\n<td>1.57%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ather Energy Limited<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Equities<\/td>\n<td>1.56%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Laurus Labs Limited September 2026 Future<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>1.55%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 56.58% of the portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/samco-multi-asset-allocation-fund-g-direct-plan\">Samco Multi Asset Allocation Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p>The largest single holding is Clearing Corporation of India Ltd at 20.64%, which is a meaningful cash-and-net-asset position and may help explain some of the fund\u2019s defensive posture. The second and third positions are also sizable, with government securities at 11.38% and a gold future at 9.65%, so the portfolio starts with a clear allocation to liquidity, sovereign exposure and commodities.<\/p>\n<p>After the top three, the weights fall sharply into the mid-single digits and then into smaller positions near 1% to 2%. That drop-off suggests the first few holdings could have greater influence on near-term movement than the tail of the list, although the fund still holds 69 disclosed positions in total.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that the displayed holdings are moderately concentrated at the top, because a little over half of the portfolio sits in the top 10. At the same time, the longer tail of positions means the fund is not relying on only a handful of assets, so the mix may still offer diversification across cash-like exposure, debt, gold and select equities.<\/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 suits investors who are comfortable with High Risk and can accept a return pattern that is still building its history. The recent numbers have been better than the benchmark, but the available record is short, so the fund is better viewed as a developing multi-asset proposition than a proven long-cycle compounder.<\/p>\n<p>A longer horizon is more suitable here because the portfolio blends cash-like holdings, government securities, gold and equities, and each component may behave differently across market cycles. The main trade-off is that the diversification may help with recent resilience, but the limited track record leaves less certainty about how consistent that outcome will be over time.<\/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>Exit load: Nil upto 10% of units and 1% for remaining units on or before 12M, Nil after 12M<\/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=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>What is the current NAV of Samco Multi Asset Allocation Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>It is \u20b912.6 as of 11 September 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 6.42%, while the 3-year and 5-year returns are Data not available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has the fund performed versus Nifty 50?<\/strong><br \/>It has stayed ahead of the benchmark in the recent 1-month, 3-month and 1-year periods.
