Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are -2.02%, 8.2% and 8.24%, respectively, and the scheme is tagged High Risk.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that the fund has delivered a mixed profile: recent weakness has sat alongside steadier longer-term numbers, while the portfolio still carries meaningful exposure to cash-like positions and large financial names. That makes it more suitable for investors who can tolerate volatility and are looking at a multi-year horizon rather than short-term consistency.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

recent pattern is softer than the longer-term picture. Over 1 month and 3 months, the fund stayed negative, but it still held up better than the benchmark in both periods. That relative resilience matters because the benchmark also weakened, which tells us the backdrop was not easy for risk assets.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-year return is also negative, yet it remains meaningfully better than the benchmark\u2019s deeper decline. This suggests the fund has not been fully protected from market pressure, but it has absorbed the drawdown more efficiently than the index over the same horizon.<\/p>\n<p>The stronger message comes from the 3-year and 5-year numbers. Both are positive and sit above the benchmark, which points to better medium-to-long-term compounding than the index. The time pattern is not a straight line, though. There is a clear stretch of pressure in the middle of the 1-year period and some choppiness over 3 years and 5 years, so our reading is that this is not a smooth-return fund.<\/p>\n<p>For investors, that combination means the fund has rewarded patience better than it has rewarded a short holding period. The recent softness does not erase the longer-term edge versus the benchmark, but it does show that returns can be uneven along the way.<\/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_Groww_Aggressive_Hybrid\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Groww Aggressive Hybrid?<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 Groww Aggressive Hybrid?

Ltd. under SEBI Registered Investment Adviser registration INA000017639. The recent 1-year number trails all five peer funds listed here, while the 3-year and 5-year numbers are also below the stronger peer returns shown in the table. That said, the gap between the fund and peers is much more pronounced in the near term than in the longer term, because the fund\u2019s own 3-year and 5-year figures remain positive and show a steadier base than the latest 1-year result.<\/p>\n<p>So the peer picture is mixed: the fund has lagged the peer set on every listed horizon, but the longer-term numbers still suggest it has been able to compound through cycles rather than simply relying on one strong year. For a return-seeking investor, that means the key question is not whether the fund can participate in rallies, but whether its uneven path and recent weakness fit the intended holding period.<\/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>TREPS 01-Sep-2026<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>15.58%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Net Receivable\/Payable<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>7.11%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HDFC Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>4.27%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ICICI Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>4.11%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Reliance Industries Limited<\/td>\n<td>Crude Oil<\/td>\n<td>3.46%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Union Bank of India 15-Mar-2027**#<\/td>\n<td>Certificate of Deposit<\/td>\n<td>2.17%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bharti Airtel Limited<\/td>\n<td>Telecom<\/td>\n<td>2.14%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HDFC Bank Limited 19-Oct-2026**#<\/td>\n<td>Certificate of Deposit<\/td>\n<td>1.86%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Larsen &amp; Toubro Limited<\/td>\n<td>Infrastructure<\/td>\n<td>1.82%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>State Bank of India<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>1.8%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest disclosed holding is TREPS 01-Sep-2026 at 15.58%, which is large enough to have a noticeable influence on the fund\u2019s short-term cash positioning. The next holding, net receivable\/payable, is also sizeable at 7.11%, so the top of the portfolio includes a meaningful liquidity layer before the equity names appear.<\/p>\n<p>The weight then falls fairly quickly from the two cash-linked lines to the equity and debt positions below them. HDFC Bank Limited at 4.27% and ICICI Bank Limited at 4.11% are still meaningful positions, but the tenth holding, State Bank of India at 1.8%, is well below the largest slot. That gap suggests the disclosed portfolio is not evenly spread across the top positions.<\/p>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 44.32% of the portfolio, and there are 75 disclosed holdings in total. Our view is that this points to a portfolio with a long tail of smaller positions, even though the largest entries are influential. That structure may reduce the dependence on any single stock alone, but the first few holdings could still matter a lot for short-run behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/groww-aggressive-hybrid-fund-g-direct-plan\">Groww Aggressive Hybrid 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 can accept High Risk and hold through uneven periods.
