Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 0%, 0% and 0%, and the fund sits in the High Risk category. Our view is that this is a consumption-themed equity fund that is still too young to judge on a full market cycle, so investors need to read the portfolio mix and near-term behaviour carefully rather than rely on long-run return history.<\/p>\n<p>The fund can suit investors who are comfortable with high day-to-day volatility and want exposure to consumer-linked businesses, but the absence of a meaningful return track record means the risk comes before the evidence. The recent pattern also matters: performance has been uneven over the short run, so we would treat it as a higher-conviction thematic equity option rather than a core diversified holding.<\/p>\n<div

Over 1 month, the fund was down 1.74% while the benchmark was down 4.41%, which tells us the fund held up better in a weak market. Over 3 months, the fund gained 14.11% while the benchmark lost 3.6%, so the recent bounce has been strong relative to the index.<\/p>\n<p>That said, this is still a short operating history. The current fund launched on 23 Oct 2025, so there is no meaningful 1-year, 3-year or 5-year return history to judge yet. For us, that means the recent numbers are useful for reading momentum, but not enough to establish a stable long-term pattern.<\/p>\n<p>The daily movement pattern also looks choppy rather than smooth, which fits a thematic portfolio more than a plain index-like allocation. Investors should expect the fund to move differently from the Nifty 50, especially when consumer stocks, retail names or healthcare-linked positions swing around broader market sentiment.<\/p>\n<p>On balance, the fund is ahead of the benchmark over the periods that are available, but the evidence base is still limited. We would place more weight on the fund\u2019s portfolio construction and risk profile than on performance history at this stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 16 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_Motilal_Oswal_Consumption\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Motilal Oswal Consumption?<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 Motilal Oswal Consumption?

Where data exists, the peer group shows meaningful multi-year compounding in some strategies, while this fund still lacks that kind of record.

The gap from the first holding to the tenth is moderate rather than steep, with the top end clustered in the mid-single digits. That pattern suggests the fund is building exposure across several consumer-linked businesses instead of relying on one or two large bets.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the top 10 holdings together account for 49.37% of the portfolio, which means the remaining 25 disclosed holdings still matter. With 35 holdings in total, the portfolio looks fairly spread out after the top positions, but the displayed names still show a clear tilt toward a handful of high-conviction ideas. We think that can support focused upside when the theme is working, though it may also make the fund more sensitive to stock-specific moves.<\/p>\n<p>The mix also includes telecom, retailing, healthcare, IT, automobile and cash equivalents, which gives the portfolio more breadth than a narrow single-industry basket. Even so, the weight pattern indicates that a few large positions are likely to have greater influence on short-term results than the long tail.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 16 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 may suit investors who can tolerate High Risk and are comfortable with a thematic equity portfolio that can move sharply from month to month. The short history means the available performance record is more useful as a snapshot of early behaviour than as proof of resilience across market cycles.<\/p>\n<p>The fund may fit an investment horizon long enough to ride through uneven stretches, especially if the investor wants consumer-linked exposure rather than a broad market allocation. Its recent returns have been better than the benchmark in the available windows, but the longer-term record is still too short to rely on for confidence.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is between stronger theme-driven upside potential and a return path that may remain uneven. Investors who prefer a steadier, benchmark-like experience may find the volatility uncomfortable, while those who can accept a concentrated thematic approach may find the construction more suitable.<\/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> 1% on or before 90D, Nil after 90D.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 16 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 Motilal Oswal Consumption Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The current NAV is \u20b911.1396 as of 16 Sep 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, 3-year and 5-year returns are Data not available, Data not available and Data not available.
