Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 0.21%, 15.97% and Data not available, and the fund sits in the High Risk category.<\/p>\n<p>Our view is that this is a consumption-theme equity fund with a mixed near-term track record and a better 3-year run than its benchmark. The portfolio is led by consumer, telecom, automobile and healthcare names, so returns may depend more on domestic spending trends than on broad market moves.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

The fund was slightly negative over one month, but it recovered over three months and stayed positive over one year. That tells us the strategy can move around sharply in the short run, yet it has still held up better than the benchmark across every displayed period except the unavailable 5-year slot.<\/p>\n<p>The 3-year figure is the clearest part of the record. At 15.97%, the fund is well ahead of the benchmark\u2019s 5.82%, which suggests the portfolio\u2019s consumer-led positioning has worked better over a fuller cycle than over the latest 12 months. The 1-year return of 0.21% is still positive, but it shows that the stronger multi-year picture has not carried through smoothly into the most recent year.<\/p>\n<p>The benchmark itself has been weak over the same windows, which means part of the fund\u2019s relative strength comes from avoiding the benchmark\u2019s softer stretch. Even so, the fund\u2019s own 1M and 3M swings show that it is not a steady, low-volatility line. Our view is that investors should read the 3-year outcome as more meaningful than the last month alone, while still allowing for shorter periods of uneven performance.<\/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_HSBC_Consumption\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD HSBC 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 HSBC Consumption?

The longer view is more balanced: its 3-year return is ahead of the only peer in this set with a 3-year figure, while several peers have no 3-year data available. That means the short-term comparison looks weak, but the medium-term comparison looks more constructive.<\/p>\n<p>For our view, the peer set tells two different stories. In the short run, the fund has not matched the higher-return peer strategies in this group. Over 3 years, however, it has delivered a more solid result than the available peer comparator, which supports the idea that this scheme can participate when the consumption theme works, even if its recent pace has been slower.<\/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>Eternal Limited<\/td>\n<td>Retailing<\/td>\n<td>6.7%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bharti Airtel Limited<\/td>\n<td>Telecom<\/td>\n<td>5.33%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Radico Khaitan Limited<\/td>\n<td>Alcohol<\/td>\n<td>4.79%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Titan Company Limited<\/td>\n<td>Diamond &amp; Jewellery<\/td>\n<td>4.39%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Maruti Suzuki India Limited<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>4.36%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ather Energy Limited<\/td>\n<td>Domestic Equities<\/td>\n<td>3.66%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TVS Motor Company Limited<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>3.15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Global Health Limited<\/td>\n<td>Healthcare<\/td>\n<td>3.13%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mahindra &amp; Mahindra Limited<\/td>\n<td>Automobile &amp; Ancillaries<\/td>\n<td>3.01%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Varun Beverages Limited<\/td>\n<td>FMCG<\/td>\n<td>2.82%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The largest holding, Eternal Limited, is 6.7%, which is meaningful but not excessive on its own. The weight then steps down gradually through Bharti Airtel, Radico Khaitan, Titan and Maruti Suzuki, so the top of the book is spread across several consumer-linked names rather than resting on one dominant position.<\/p>\n<p>The 10 disclosed holdings together account for 41.34% of the portfolio, leaving a long tail across the remaining disclosed positions. That mix suggests the fund may be diversified within its theme, even though the largest positions still look likely to have greater influence on returns than the smaller satellite holdings. With 49 total disclosed holdings, the portfolio appears broad enough to avoid a single-stock story, but still focused enough to keep theme exposure visible.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/hsbc-consumption-fund-g-direct-plan\">HSBC Consumption 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 who are comfortable with High Risk equity exposure and can stay invested for a longer horizon. Its 3-year return is clearly better than the benchmark, but the 1-year result is modest and the short-term pattern has been choppy, so patience matters.<\/p>\n<p>The main trade-off is that a consumption-focused portfolio can participate strongly when domestic spending themes are working, yet it may lag during weaker stretches or when the theme loses momentum. Investors looking for a steadier market-tracking outcome may find the swings harder to accept, while those who want theme exposure and can tolerate uneven near-term results may see the fit as more reasonable.<\/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><\/p>\n<p>Nil up to 10% of units if sold on or before 1 year; 1% for remaining units if sold on or before 1 year; no exit load after the holding period.<\/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 HSBC Consumption Fund Direct Growth Plan?<\/strong><br \/>The NAV is \u20b915.7976 as of 17 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns?<\/strong><br \/>The 1-year return is 0.21%, the 3-year return is 15.97%, and the 5-year return is Data not available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the fund compare with its benchmark?<\/strong><br \/>It has outpaced the benchmark over 3 years and 1 year, while the benchmark has been weaker over the same periods.
