Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 0%, 0% and 0%, and the risk label is Low Risk. Our view is that this is best read as a stability-first hybrid-style option rather than a return-led one; the benchmark has been more volatile over the recent periods, but the fund itself has also not yet built a meaningful trailing track record.<\/p>\n<p>For investors, the main takeaway is that the fund currently looks more suited to conservative capital-preservation needs than to aggressive growth expectations. The portfolio has a meaningful cash and debt presence alongside banks and select equity-linked exposures, which may help explain the lower-volatility profile.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

That pattern suggests the fund has not moved in a straight line, but the swings have been modest rather than dramatic. For a conservative-style scheme, that kind of short-term behaviour may appeal to investors who care more about limiting noise than chasing fast gains.<\/p>\n<p>Against the benchmark, the fund has been more resilient in the very near term. The Nifty 50 was weaker over both 1 month and 3 months, while the fund held close to flat and then edged higher on the 3-month view. That indicates the scheme has not depended on a strong market backdrop to keep pace over the latest window.<\/p>\n<p>The longer horizon is still too short to call a trend with confidence. The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year figures are all 0%, which means the fund does not yet present a mature trailing-return history for comparison. Our view is that investors should read the recent steadiness alongside the limited track record, not as evidence of a proven long-run compounding profile.<\/p>\n<p>In that sense, the fund currently looks more defensive than growth-oriented. The recent numbers are better than the benchmark\u2019s short-term move, but they do not yet establish a strong long-term return story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 17 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_Magnum_Hybrid_Long_Short\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Magnum Hybrid Long Short?<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 Magnum Hybrid Long Short?

The same issue applies to the 3-year and 5-year views: every peer shown here has missing medium-term figures, so there is no direct long-horizon comparison to make from those cells. What does stand out is that the peer group shows meaningful 1-year dispersion, while this fund remains close to flat over the same period.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 17 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>TREPS<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>4.57%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>3.6%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ICICI Bank Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>3.19%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Axis Bank Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>2.98%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Small Industries Development Bank of India<\/td>\n<td>Corporate Debt<\/td>\n<td>2.84%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Reliance Industries Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Crude Oil<\/td>\n<td>2.8%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HDFC Bank Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>2.75%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bharti Telecom Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Corporate Debt<\/td>\n<td>2.71%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Raajmarg Infra Investment Trust<\/td>\n<td>Reits &amp; Invits<\/td>\n<td>2.7%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Avenue Supermarts Ltd.<\/td>\n<td>Retailing<\/td>\n<td>2.44%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The ten largest disclosed holdings together account for approximately 30.58% of the portfolio, so the fund still has a long tail beyond the names shown here. The biggest single holding, TREPS, is 4.57%, and the rest of the list steps down gradually rather than collapsing into one dominant position. That kind of spread may help keep the portfolio from depending too heavily on one security.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, the repeated presence of banks among the largest lines means financials are likely to matter to day-to-day portfolio movement. Alongside that, the mix also includes cash equivalents, corporate debt, a REIT or InvIT, and a retailing name, which suggests a blend of defensive and market-linked exposures rather than a single-theme portfolio. With 56 total disclosed holdings, the scheme appears to be built with breadth, even though the top 10 only explain a little under one-third of the book.<\/p>\n<p>From an investor\u2019s point of view, that profile may be easier to live with than a concentrated equity portfolio. The trade-off is that the fund\u2019s return engine may be less visible from the largest holdings alone, because much of the portfolio sits beyond the top disclosed names.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/magnum-hybrid-long-short-fund-g-direct-plan\">Magnum Hybrid Long Short Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 17 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 with a conservative temperament who want lower-volatility exposure rather than a return-maximising strategy. The official risk label is Low Risk, and the recent numbers have been relatively contained even when the benchmark was weaker, which supports a steadier profile.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is that the fund has not yet shown a meaningful long-term return record, so the case for it rests more on portfolio structure and short-term steadiness than on a proven compounding history. Investors with a shorter monitoring horizon or a need for a calmer allocation may find that more relevant than those looking for strong multi-year upside.<\/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>Exit load applies as 0.50% on or before 15D, 0.25% after 15D but on or before 30D, and nil after 30D.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 17 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 Magnum Hybrid Long Short Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The NAV is \u20b910.4865 as of 17 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 0%, 0% and 0%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has it done versus the benchmark recently?<\/strong><br \/>It has been less weak than the benchmark in the recent windows.
