Buying brief
Evidence on this desk, framed as a purchase checklist - not SEBI-registered advice.
As of 29 Oct 2026
Stance
Watch before adding
Recent evidence is mixed. Compare peers before increasing exposure.
In three lines
Fits if · Peak-to-trough drawdown has stayed shallower than 15%.
Prefer peers if · Prefer Axis CRISIL IBX 50:50 Gilt Plus SDL June 2028 Index Fund if you want a same-category peer with stronger evidence.
Buy checklist
History depth
Watch
4.1 years - usable, still building a track record.
Engine status
Watch
Recent evidence is mixed. Compare peers before increasing exposure.
Expense ratio
Pass
0.21% TER (Direct). Lower cost compounds on long SIPs.
Drawdown vs peers
Pass
Peak-to-trough -3.4%. Ask whether you can hold through a similar fall.
Vs category
Fail
0% of rolling 3Y windows beat the category median, same plan and option.
Manager tenure
n/a
Manager not listed.
Exit load
n/a
No exit-load summary on file.
Tax / wrapper
Pass
Direct Growth, no ELSS lock flagged. Equity LTCG rules still apply after one year - not tax advice.
Portfolio concentration
Watch
Top 10 holdings ≈ 95.3% of the portfolio.
Same-category peers are preloaded into compare when available.
Behaviour and wrappers - the usual India MF failure modes - not a buy instruction.
Drawdown rehearsal
This scheme’s worst fall on file is about 3%. Before you SIP, ask whether you would keep contributing through a similar drop - pausing on fear is the usual India MF failure mode.
SIP discipline
Monitor is recent mixed evidence - keep the SIP unless the buying brief says prefer peers, then swap with intent.
NAV
Path not in current snapshots

Trailing CAGR and simulated monthly SIP XIRR from daily NAV. Category comparison uses the median of comparable share classes in the peer set.
Trailing CAGR
