Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 1.77%, 14.77% and 15.32% respectively, and the fund sits in the High Risk category. Our view is that the fund has still delivered a solid longer-term compounding pattern, but the recent 1-year outcome has been much softer than its medium- and longer-term record.<\/p>\n<p>The portfolio is led by financials, with banks taking the largest individual weights, so the fund may suit investors who are comfortable with equity volatility and want a value-oriented approach that can hold through uneven periods. Its recent behaviour has been weaker than its 3-year and 5-year trends, so the main question is whether an investor can stay invested through periods when shorter-term returns lag the longer arc.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_65 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p

fund\u2019s short-term trend has been softer than its longer history, but it has still held up a little better than the benchmark over the recent one-month and three-month windows. That matters because the last few months were not a smooth upward move; the pattern suggests intermittent pullbacks rather than a steady climb.<\/p>\n<p>Over the 1-year period, the fund stayed positive while the benchmark was negative, which points to better resilience than the index in a difficult stretch. The 3-year and 5-year figures are more important for a value strategy, and both show a clear edge over the benchmark. In our view, that longer record is the more meaningful signal here because it shows the fund has been able to compound at a higher pace across different market phases.<\/p>\n<p>The recent dip does not erase the broader trend, but it does tell us the fund is not immune to short-term swings. For investors, that means the case for the scheme rests less on near-term consistency and more on whether its style can continue to deliver over a full market cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Against the Nifty 50, the fund has been ahead on every reported horizon. The gap is especially noticeable over 3 years and 5 years, where the benchmark\u2019s returns have been much lower. That combination of weaker recent momentum and stronger medium-term compounding is typical of an equity fund that can move around but still create value for patient capital.<\/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_Value\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD HSBC Value?<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 Value?

The fund\u2019s 1-year return trails the stronger peer readings in this set, especially LIC MF Value Fund Direct Growth Plan and Quant Value Fund Direct Growth Plan. At the same time, its 3-year and 5-year figures are still competitive, and its 5-year number is ahead of the peers here with available long-horizon data.<\/p>\n<p>Our reading is that the short-term picture is mixed, but the longer-term picture is sturdier. That split matters: one peer has a very strong 1-year showing, while another has a stronger 3-year figure, yet HSBC Value Fund Direct Growth Plan keeps a balanced record across the medium and long term. For investors comparing only the available return figures, the fund looks more consistent over longer horizons than many peers, even if its latest year is not the most striking in the group.<\/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>ICICI Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>4.20%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>HDFC Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>4.15%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Karur Vysya Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>3.57%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>The Federal Bank Limited<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>3.37%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>State Bank of India<\/td>\n<td>Bank<\/td>\n<td>3.17%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>TREPS<\/td>\n<td>Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents and Net Assets<\/td>\n<td>2.94%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Reliance Industries Limited<\/td>\n<td>Crude Oil<\/td>\n<td>2.79%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PNB Housing Finance Limited<\/td>\n<td>Finance<\/td>\n<td>2.66%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Finolex Cables Ltd<\/td>\n<td>Electricals<\/td>\n<td>2.43%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Balrampur Chini Mills Limited<\/td>\n<td>Agri<\/td>\n<td>2.32%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The top 10 holdings account for approximately 31.6% of the portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>To see all holdings, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/mutual-funds\/hsbc-value-fund-g-direct-plan\">HSBC Value Fund Direct Growth Plan<\/a> page<\/p>\n<p>The largest position, ICICI Bank Limited, stands at 4.2%, which is meaningful but not excessive for a single stock in an equity portfolio. The drop from the first holding to the tenth is noticeable, moving from 4.2% to 2.32%, so the portfolio is not dominated by one outsized bet.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, the combined weight of the ten largest holdings is 31.6%, and the fund discloses 67 holdings in total. That combination suggests the scheme is not narrowly built around only a handful of names, though the banking tilt at the top could still have a greater influence on near-term movements than the smaller positions lower down the list.<\/p>\n<p>From an investor\u2019s perspective, this looks like a portfolio with a meaningful core in financials and a longer tail beyond the top names. That may help spread stock-specific risk, but it also means returns can depend on how the larger banking positions behave over time.<\/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 is better suited to investors who can handle High Risk equity volatility and who are prepared to stay invested for a longer horizon.
