Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are -6.46%, 0% and 0%, and the scheme is tagged as High Risk. Our view is that this is a portfolio for investors who can stay patient through short-term swings and who are comfortable with an index strategy that has not yet built a long return record.<\/p>\n<p>It remains a small scheme with a low expense ratio of 0.23% and a concentrated set of 30 holdings. The current portfolio leans toward quality names across IT, FMCG and other large businesses, which may help explain the style of the fund, but recent returns have been weak versus the benchmark. That makes it more suitable for investors who want a quality-focused equity index exposure and can accept near-term volatility.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65

performance has been uneven. Over 1 month, the fund fell more than the benchmark, but over 3 months it held up a little better than the index. That mix suggests short-term volatility rather than a smooth trend, which is common for a new and narrow equity strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The 1-year return is still negative, though it is less weak than the benchmark\u2019s 1-year decline. That tells us the fund has not protected capital fully, but it has done slightly better than the benchmark over the same stretch. For an equity index fund, that relative edge is useful, even if the absolute outcome is still negative.<\/p>\n<p>There is no meaningful 3-year or 5-year history to judge the longer compounding pattern, so we should be careful not to read too much into those placeholder figures. The practical takeaway is that the fund\u2019s short record shows it can move differently from the benchmark from one period to the next, but it has not yet established a durable long-run track record.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that investors should judge this scheme more on the quality-style exposure it offers than on past compounding evidence. The available history is too short to support a strong long-term performance claim, so the main question is whether the portfolio style fits the investor\u2019s equity allocation rather than whether recent returns look attractive on their own.<\/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_Kotak_Nifty_200_Quality_30_Index\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Kotak Nifty 200 Quality 30 Index?<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 Kotak Nifty 200 Quality 30 Index?

The contrast is sharper because the peer set includes different equity styles, and several of them have posted much stronger 1-year outcomes over the same market window.<\/p>\n<p>For 3-year and 5-year comparisons, the current fund cannot be measured on the same footing because those horizons are not yet established here. That means the peer comparison is mostly a short-term story: the fund has not matched the stronger recent results shown by the peers, but the longer-horizon comparison remains incomplete for this scheme.<\/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>Tata Consultancy Services Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>5.47%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Nestle India Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>5.2%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Infosys Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>5.16%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bharat Electronics Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Capital Goods<\/td>\n<td>4.8%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HCL Technologies Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>IT<\/td>\n<td>4.57%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bajaj Auto Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>4.48%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hindustan Unilever Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>4.3%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ITC Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>4.23%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dixon Technologies India Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Consumer Durables<\/td>\n<td>4.21%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Britannia Industries Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>4.05%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 46.47% of the portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/kotak-nifty-200-quality-30-index-fund-g-direct-plan\">Kotak Nifty 200 Quality 30 Index Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p>The largest holding, Tata Consultancy Services Ltd. at 5.47%, is only modestly ahead of the next few positions, which suggests that the scheme does not rely on a single oversized bet. The gap from the first holding to the tenth is not dramatic, so the portfolio looks balanced within its top slice rather than sharply tilted to one name.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the top 10 holdings together make up 46.47% of the portfolio, so nearly half the scheme sits in a relatively compact group of names. That level of concentration may increase the influence of a handful of stocks on short-term returns, even though the remaining 20 holdings can still add diversification beyond the visible top tier.<\/p>\n<p>Sector-wise, the top holdings lean heavily toward IT and FMCG, with other large businesses spread across capital goods, automobiles and consumer durables. That mix may give the fund a quality bias, and the long tail of 30 holdings suggests the strategy is not limited to only a few positions, even though the largest names still matter most.<\/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 tolerate High Risk equity volatility and who are comfortable with a strategy that has only a short live record.

The main trade-off is simple: you get a low-cost, rules-based portfolio with quality names, but you also accept the possibility of uneven near-term performance.<\/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> No exit load<\/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=\"Frequently_asked_questions\"><\/span>Frequently asked questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>What is the current NAV of Kotak Nifty 200 Quality 30 Index Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The current NAV is \u20b99.505 as of 15 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the fund\u2019s 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>The fund\u2019s 1-year return is -6.46%, while the 3-year and 5-year figures are 0% and 0%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the fund compare with its benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>Over 1 year, the fund has done better than the benchmark\u2019s -8.27% return.
