Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 15.26%, 21.72% and 15.31% respectively, and the scheme carries a High Risk classification. In our view, it has been a strong long-term compounder for a sector-focused equity fund, but the recent path has been uneven, so the fit is better for investors who can tolerate sharp swings.<\/p>\n<p>The fund\u2019s return pattern is healthier over 3 years and 5 years than over the latest few months, and its portfolio is concentrated enough that a handful of names can matter meaningfully. That makes it more suitable as a focused satellite holding than as a core stability anchor.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey

near-term pattern is mixed, but the fund has still held up better than the benchmark. Over 1 month, it was only slightly negative, while the benchmark fell more sharply. Over 3 months and 1 year, the fund recovered far better than the benchmark, which tells us the strategy has been able to participate in rebounds rather than simply track the broader market.<\/p>\n<p>The stronger message comes from the longer periods. A 3-year return of 21.72% against 5.59% for the benchmark shows clear outperformance over a full market cycle, and the 5-year return also stays well ahead. That is important because a healthcare-focused fund can see periods where sentiment or stock selection works against it, yet the longer compounding still matters more for patient investors.<\/p>\n<p>We also note that the recent 1M result is softer than the 3M and 1Y figures. That kind of move is not unusual for a sector fund, but it does mean the path is less smooth than a broad-market equity fund. The overall picture is one of meaningful upside capture over time, tempered by short-term volatility.<\/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_DSP_Healthcare\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD DSP Healthcare?<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 DSP Healthcare?

On the latest 1-year figure, the fund trails several of the named peers, especially the more aggressive thematic option in the table. That said, the 3-year and 5-year numbers still show a steadier longer-term compounding profile than the short list of peers where those periods are not available. So the comparison is split: the fund is not the strongest on recent 1-year performance, but its longer run remains more useful for an investor looking at healthcare exposure over time.<\/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>Ipca Laboratories Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>8.74%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>7.95%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sai Life Sciences Limited<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Equities<\/td>\n<td>7.45%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Cipla Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>7.35%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>6.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Gland Pharma Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>5.98%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Globus Medical Inc<\/td>\n<td>Overseas Equities<\/td>\n<td>5.44%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Divi&#8217;S Laboratories Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>4.15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Alkem Laboratories Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>4.08%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Cohance Lifesciences Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>3.81%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top holding, Ipca Laboratories Limited, carries an 8.74% weight, which is meaningful but not extreme on its own. The gap from the first holding to the tenth is noticeable: the list moves from 8.74% down to 3.81%, so influence gradually broadens rather than dropping off in one sharp step.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 61.42% of the portfolio, and the scheme discloses 29 holdings in total. That combination suggests a fairly concentrated portfolio with a long enough tail to reduce single-stock dependence, but not enough breadth to make each position negligible. In our view, the larger names are likely to have greater influence on returns than the smaller positions, especially when healthcare leadership shifts between a few core stocks.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a meaningful mix across healthcare, domestic equities and overseas equities in the largest positions, which may help the portfolio avoid being locked into one narrow pocket of the market. Even so, the visible weights show that the fund is still built around a small cluster of high-conviction holdings rather than a broad index-like spread.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/dsp-healthcare-fund-g-direct-plan\">DSP Healthcare 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 suits investors who are comfortable with High Risk equity exposure and can stay invested through uneven stretches.
