Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 7.76%, 15.32% and 12.8% respectively. The fund sits in the High Risk category, so our view is that it fits investors who can handle sharp swings in a theme-led equity fund and are comfortable with a longer holding period.<\/p>\n<p>What stands out is that the fund has stayed ahead of the benchmark over 3 years and 5 years, while the most recent 1-year return is much more modest. That mix suggests a cyclical profile rather than a smooth one, with portfolio exposure that can help in strong resource and energy phases but may lag when the theme cools.<\/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 class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/tata-resources-and-energy-fund-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Quick_facts\" title=\"Quick facts\">Quick facts<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/tata-resources-and-energy-fund-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Performance\" title=\"Performance\">Performance<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/blogs-2\/tata-resources-and-energy-fund-direct-growth-review-2026\/#Should_you_BUY_or_HOLD_Tata_Resources_Energy\" title=\"Should you BUY or HOLD Tata Resources &#038;

Over the past year, the fund posted a positive return while the benchmark was negative, which tells us the strategy has been able to add value in a difficult backdrop for the index.<\/p>\n<p>The 3-year and 5-year numbers matter more for a fund like this, because theme exposure can move through long phases of outperformance and restraint. On those longer windows, the fund is clearly ahead of the benchmark, which supports the case that the underlying portfolio has rewarded patience even if the path was uneven.<\/p>\n<p>The recent pattern is less smooth than the longer record. The 1-month and 3-month figures show mild short-term weakness, but they do not erase the stronger 3-year and 5-year compounding trend. For investors, that usually means the fund can participate in upside, but the journey is unlikely to be steady from month to month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 18 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_Tata_Resources_Energy\"><\/span>Should you BUY or HOLD Tata Resources &#038; Energy?<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 Tata Resources &#038; Energy?

The drop from the first holding to the tenth is fairly measured, with the top positions still carrying more weight than the names lower down the list, but not in a way that suggests extreme concentration in one stock.<\/p>\n<p>The mix also looks diversified across construction materials, power, crude oil, metals and steel, which may help spread stock-specific risk. At the same time, the top 10 holdings together make up 41.8% of a 46-holding portfolio, so the fund likely still depends on a meaningful number of smaller positions for its overall outcome.<\/p>\n<p>That structure suggests a portfolio that is focused enough to express a theme, yet broad enough to avoid relying on only a handful of names. For investors, the key point is that returns may be driven by both the theme and the individual holdings inside it, rather than by one oversized position alone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mf-source-date\"><small>Source data date: as of 18 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 tolerance for volatility and a patience level that matches a theme-driven equity strategy.

That makes the main trade-off clear: you may get exposure to a resource-and-energy style portfolio that can outperform over time, but the ride can be choppy and periods of weaker momentum are possible.<\/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>0.25% applies if units are sold on or before 30 days.
