Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 19.28%, 22.88% and 15.29%, and the scheme sits in High Risk. Our view is that it has rewarded patient investors over longer periods, but the recent one-month patch has been softer, so the fund fits investors who can tolerate overseas equity swings and are comfortable with a concentrated fund-of-funds structure.<\/p>\n<p>The underlying mix is almost entirely one overseas equity fund, which keeps the portfolio simple but also makes the fund\u2019s path more dependent on that single exposure. Against a benchmark that has been weaker over 1-, 3- and 1-year periods, the fund has stayed ahead on the numbers we have, although the shorter-term pattern has been more uneven than the multi-year trend.<\/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

recent profile is mixed rather than one-way. The fund was down over 1 month, but the fall was smaller than the benchmark\u2019s decline, which tells us it held up better in a weak stretch. Over 3 months, the fund moved back into positive territory while the benchmark stayed negative, so the fund has shown a clearer recovery path in the near term.<\/p>\n<p>The stronger story appears over 1 year. The fund returned 19.28% while the benchmark was still negative at -8.27%, which is a wide gap and points to the fund\u2019s overseas allocation behaving very differently from the domestic index. That said, the shorter-term improvement does not look perfectly smooth, so volatility remains part of the experience.<\/p>\n<p>On a longer horizon, the fund\u2019s 3-year and 5-year returns remain comfortably ahead of the benchmark\u2019s 5.59% and 5.58%. The spread is not just about one good year; the multi-year pattern has stayed stronger, even if the path has had pauses and pullbacks. For investors, that suggests a return stream that has compounded better than the benchmark but has not done so in a straight line.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the fund appears more resilient than the benchmark through different windows, yet the one-month softness reminds us that overseas equity exposure can still move sharply over short periods.<\/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_Axis_Global_Equity_Alpha_FoF\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Axis Global Equity Alpha 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 Axis Global Equity Alpha FoF?

That means the short-term picture is less impressive than several peers, while the medium-term and long-term picture is more balanced and still competitive.<\/p>\n<p>One notable feature is that the fund\u2019s 5-year return is ahead of some peers with stronger 1-year numbers. That tells us the comparison is not simply about the latest year; the fund has held up better over the longer compounding window than its recent pace alone might suggest. The story across peers is therefore mixed, with recent momentum lower than the strongest comparables but longer-term results still useful.<\/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>Schroder Isf Global Equity Alpha Class X1 Acc<\/td>\n<td>Overseas Mutual Fund Units<\/td>\n<td>98.59%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Clearing Corporation of India Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>1.52%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest holding is overwhelmingly dominant at 98.59%, so the fund\u2019s outcome may be driven mainly by that single underlying overseas equity exposure. The second holding is a small cash-and-net-assets position at 1.52%, which is not large enough to materially change the portfolio\u2019s overall profile.<\/p>\n<p>Because only two holdings are disclosed and they add up to 100%, the portfolio is very concentrated rather than spread across a long tail of positions. That simplicity may make the fund easier to understand, but it also means performance could be more closely tied to the path of one underlying strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The weight gap from the first holding to the second is extremely wide, so there is little evidence of diversification within the visible portfolio. In our view, this concentration is important for investors to note because it can amplify both the benefit and the discomfort of the fund\u2019s overseas equity exposure.<\/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 exposure and who can stay invested through uneven stretches.

The main trade-off is concentration: the portfolio is heavily tied to one overseas mutual fund holding, so the potential for steady compounding comes with a sharper dependence on that single position\u2019s journey.<\/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> NIL upto 10% of investments and 1% for remaining investments on or before 12M.
