Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 74.42%, 45.18% and 0%, respectively, and the fund is in the High Risk category. Our view is that this is a concentrated silver-oriented fund of funds that can move sharply, so it suits investors who can handle higher volatility and who want exposure to a single precious-metals theme rather than a broad equity style.<\/p>\n<p>The fund\u2019s portfolio is fully concentrated in one holding, which makes the return path closely tied to the underlying silver ETF. That structure has supported strong longer-horizon numbers, but the recent 1-month and 3-month performance has been softer than the 1-year and 3-year record. For investors who can accept theme-driven swings, the fund offers a simple, direct way to take silver exposure.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy

Over 1 month and 3 months, the fund stayed in negative territory, which tells us the recent silver cycle has not been smooth even though the losses were smaller than the benchmark over 1 month and wider over 3 months. That pattern matters because this is not a steady income-style product; it tends to reflect moves in the underlying metal.<\/p>\n<p>The longer record is much stronger. The 1-year return of 74.42% and the 3-year return of 45.18% both point to a powerful compounding phase over the last few years. Against the benchmark, the fund has clearly outpaced the index over 1 year and 3 years, while the benchmark itself has been weak on 1-year performance and only modestly positive over 3 years.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that the fund\u2019s behaviour over the shorter windows shows the same kind of volatility that can be expected from a commodity-linked theme. The 3-year path has been far better than the 1-month and 3-month readings, so the fund looks more like a cyclical thematic allocation than a smooth compounding engine.<\/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_Axis_Silver_FoF\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Axis Silver 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 Silver FoF?

The more interesting point is the 3-year reading: Axis Silver FoF Direct Growth Plan at 45.18% is marginally ahead of Kotak Silver ETF FoF Direct Growth Plan and clearly ahead of Nippon India Silver ETF FOF Direct Growth Plan where that figure is available. The shorter-window peer picture is tight, so the differences are small, but the fund\u2019s 3-year record holds up well against the comparable set.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 16 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>Axis Silver ETF<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Mutual Funds Units &#8211; Silver<\/td>\n<td>100.02%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The portfolio is highly concentrated, with a single holding that accounts for virtually all of the fund. That means the largest holding, Axis Silver ETF, is effectively the engine of the strategy and is likely to have the greatest influence on outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>Because there is only one disclosed holding, the weight does not fall away across a list of positions; instead, the fund is built around one underlying silver exposure. The disclosed holding count is one, so the portfolio does not offer the diversification you would expect from a multi-stock equity fund or a multi-asset blend.<\/p>\n<p>That concentration may suit an investor who wants a straightforward silver allocation and is comfortable with theme-driven swings. It also means the fund\u2019s behaviour may remain closely tied to the underlying ETF rather than being cushioned by a long tail of smaller positions.<\/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 suits investors with a high risk tolerance who want a focused silver-theme allocation and can stay invested through sharp moves. The 1-year and 3-year returns show strong upside potential, but the weaker 1-month and 3-month readings show that the path can be choppy. The benchmark comparison also makes clear that the fund is not designed to track broad equity-like behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>We think the right horizon is medium to long term, with the understanding that the ride may be volatile even when the longer record looks strong. The main trade-off is simple: you get concentrated exposure to silver, but you give up diversification and stability. The single-holding portfolio reinforces that trade-off, so this is better viewed as a thematic sleeve than a core holding.<\/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> 0.25% if units are sold on or before 7 days; nil after 7 days.<\/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 Axis Silver FoF Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The current NAV is \u20b939.2048 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 return is 74.42%, the 3-year return is 45.18%, and the 5-year return is not available in the figures provided.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has the fund performed versus its benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It has outpaced the benchmark over 1 year and 3 years, while the benchmark has been weaker over 1 year and modestly positive over 3 years.
