360 ONE Overnight Fund Direct Growth Review 2026: NAV, Returns, Portfolio & Should You Invest?

360 ONE Overnight Fund Direct Growth Plan is an overnight-oriented liquid scheme with a current NAV of ₹1,061.6543 as of 30 Aug 2026 and a scheme AUM of ₹254 Cr. Its 1-year, 3-year and 5-year returns are 5.35%, Data not available and Data not available, while the risk category is Low Risk. Our view is that it suits conservative cash-allocation needs more than long-horizon equity-style compounding, because the portfolio is dominated by cash equivalents and very short-duration instruments.

The fund has delivered a steady 1-year return, but the longer history is not yet available in the same way, so the main check is whether the recent pattern has stayed orderly versus its benchmark. On that basis, it has been relatively stable, and the portfolio mix supports that profile.

Performance

Period Fund return Benchmark return
1M 0.41% -0.85%
3M 1.28% 3.39%
1Y 5.35% -2.29%
3Y Data not available Data not available
5Y Data not available Data not available

The recent profile is quite steady. Over 1 month, the fund stayed positive while the benchmark was negative, which points to a calmer short-term path. That said, the 3-month period was weaker than the benchmark, so the fund did not lead every recent stretch.

Over 1 year, the fund held up well with a 5.35% return, while the benchmark finished at -2.29%. That gap suggests the scheme has done its job as a low-volatility parking option rather than as a market-tracking return play.

The return path also looks relatively controlled when we compare the shorter windows: the fund’s movement has been modest, without the sharp swings that typically matter in riskier categories. For investors, that means the main appeal is stability and liquidity orientation, not high upside.

Because the fund has been available for a shorter period, the longer-horizon comparison does not yet add much evidence. Still, the recent return pattern is consistent with an overnight-style product that aims to preserve short-term capital rather than chase the benchmark.

Mirae Asset Overnight Fund Direct Growth Plan 5.31% 6.12% 5.72%

This assessment is prepared by Uniapps Investment Adviser Pvt. Ltd. under SEBI Registered Investment Adviser registration INA000017639.

The fund’s 1-year return is close to the peer group band, though Bank of India Overnight Fund Direct Growth Plan is slightly ahead on the same measure. Baroda BNP Paribas Overnight Fund Direct Growth Plan, Nippon India Overnight Fund Direct Growth Plan and Mirae Asset Overnight Fund Direct Growth Plan all sit in a narrow range around it, so the near-term gap is small.

The bigger difference appears in the longer-window figures available for the peer set. Those peers show stronger 3-year and 5-year numbers than the current fund can yet display, while this scheme does not have comparable longer-history figures available in the same format. That means the short-term comparison looks competitive, but the longer-term peer picture is fuller and slightly stronger.

So the peer set tells two stories at once: the current fund is broadly in line on recent return, yet the established peer histories show more evidence of longer-run compounding. For a low-risk overnight scheme, that distinction matters more for history depth than for headline aggressiveness.

Portfolio: where your money goes

Market-cap bucket Weight
Large cap 0%
Mid cap 0%
Small cap 0%
Other cap 100%
Sector Weight Top holdings
CASH & CASH EQUIVALENTS AND NET ASSETS 89.39% REVERSE REPO (88.32%), TREPS (1.3%)
COMMERCIAL PAPER 5.64% AXIS FINANCE LIMITED (01/07/2026)** (1.73%), BAJAJ FINANCE LIMITED (01/06/2026) (0.88%)
CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT 2.97% UNION BANK OF INDIA (01/06/2026) # (0.88%), INDUSIND BANK LIMITED (01/06/2026) # (0.66%)
TREASURY BILLS 2%

The portfolio is entirely in the other-cap bucket, which fits the nature of an overnight liquid scheme. There is no equity-style market-cap exposure here, so behaviour should be driven by cash-like instruments rather than stock-market moves.

The largest sector, cash and cash equivalents plus net assets, is materially larger than the next bucket. At 89.39%, it dominates the portfolio, while commercial paper is much smaller at 5.64% and certificates of deposit are 2.97%. That concentration is normal for this kind of fund and suggests short-term liquidity management is the main function.

Reverse repo at 88.32% is the single most important holding line and may have the greatest influence on day-to-day portfolio behaviour. Commercial paper and certificates of deposit add a small amount of spread-seeking exposure, but they do not change the core profile. Treasury bills at 2% round out a very defensive construction.

Who should invest

This fund is better suited to investors who want low-risk, short-horizon parking for money rather than meaningful growth ambition. Its Low Risk tag, small one-year gain, and defensive portfolio mix point to capital stability and liquidity as the main goals.

The trade-off is straightforward: you get a calmer holding pattern, but you should not expect equity-like upside or long-run wealth creation. It can fit conservative investors who want a short holding period and are comfortable with returns that usually stay close to cash-market conditions. The recent return pattern and peer comparison both support that practical, preservation-first use case.
