Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are -1.34%, 0% and 0%, and the scheme sits in the High Risk category. Our view is that this fund suits investors who can tolerate sharp swings and are comfortable with a theme-led allocation rather than a broad market holding.<\/p>\n<p>The portfolio is highly focused, with almost the entire corpus placed in a single underlying ETF. That makes the outcome closely tied to the EV and new-age automotive theme, so the fund is best viewed as a specialised satellite exposure rather than a core equity allocation.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/icici-pru-nifty-ev-and-new-age-automotive-etf-fof-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Quick_facts\" title=\"Quick facts\">Quick facts<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/icici-pru-nifty-ev-and-new-age-automotive-etf-fof-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Performance\" title=\"Performance\">Performance<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/icici-pru-nifty-ev-and-new-age-automotive-etf-fof-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Should_you_BUY_or_HOLD_ICICI_Pru_Nifty_EV_New_Age_Automotive_ETF_FOF\" title=\"Should you BUY or HOLD ICICI Pru Nifty EV &#038;

The fund fell sharply over 1 month, then recovered enough to turn slightly positive over 3 months. That pattern suggests the NAV has moved around materially in the short run, which is typical of a theme-focused exposure.<\/p>\n<p>Over 1 year, the fund is still negative at -1.34%, but it is materially ahead of the benchmark\u2019s -8.27%. That tells us the scheme has been less weak than the benchmark over the same period, even though the absolute result remains below zero.<\/p>\n<p>The short-term picture is better than the 1-month decline suggests, because the 3-month return has stabilised near flat. At the same time, there is no long history here to lean on for a 3-year or 5-year read, so we would avoid treating the recent improvement as proof of a lasting trend.<\/p>\n<p>For investors, the main takeaway is that this fund has not tracked a smooth path. It has held up better than the benchmark over 1 year, but the recent monthly move shows the theme can still swing quickly in either direction.<\/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_ICICI_Pru_Nifty_EV_New_Age_Automotive_ETF_FOF\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD ICICI Pru Nifty EV &#038; New Age Automotive ETF FOF?<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 ICICI Pru Nifty EV &#038; New Age Automotive ETF FOF?

On the other hand, the fund\u2019s negative 1-year result still sits above the benchmark\u2019s weaker 1-year reading, so it has not been as weak as the index proxy over the same period.<\/p>\n<p>For longer horizons, the comparison is limited because 3-year and 5-year figures are not available for this fund. Among peers where longer data exists, the silver and gold FoF names show much firmer 3-year outcomes, while this fund cannot be compared on that basis yet. The short-term and longer-term peer picture therefore tell different stories: current momentum looks weak, but the absence of a track record keeps the longer-view judgement open.<\/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>ICICI Prudential Nifty Ev &amp; New Age Automotive ETF<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Mutual Funds Units<\/td>\n<td>99.97%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>With one disclosed holding at 99.97%, the fund is extremely concentrated.

Since the total disclosed holdings count is one, the portfolio does not build a long tail of smaller positions that could soften the effect of a sharp move in the underlying ETF.<\/p>\n<p>That structure makes this scheme more of a wrapper around one theme exposure than a diversified multi-holding fund.
