Direct · GrowthAI Summary
Abakkus Small Cap Fund has underperformed the NIFTY SMALLCAP 250 benchmark across all measured horizons, with a 1Y Fund CAGR of 16.59% versus the benchmark's 17.79% and a 3Y CAGR of 5.25% versus 5.61%. Alpha is positive at 2.02% over 1Y but turns negative over longer windows, reaching -1.61% over 15Y. SIP XIRR data is not available for direct comparison with the category averages.
The fund exhibits defensive behavior with a beta of 0.7148, capturing only 73.8% of benchmark downside versus 81.45% of upside, which produces a favorable capture ratio. It has recorded just one significant drawdown event (>10%) with a maximum drawdown of only -0.109%, recovered within 43 days. This low drawdown profile, combined with consistent downside protection, indicates strong capital preservation characteristics.
Portfolio holdings and sector allocation data are not available for this analysis. Without visibility into top holdings and concentration levels, investors should review the fund's latest portfolio disclosure directly before investing.
The fund trails its NIFTY SMALLCAP 250 benchmark modestly across the 3Y, 5Y, and longer windows, with gaps of roughly 0.11% to 0.36% in annualized returns. This suggests consistent but slightly inferior returns relative to the market rather than a one-off shortfall. SIP XIRR figures are unavailable, limiting direct peer comparison against category averages.
The fund suits conservative small-cap investors prioritizing downside protection, given its downside capture of 73.8% and shallow drawdown history. Small-cap exposure requires a long horizon of at least 5 to 7 years to weather market cycles. Investors should be comfortable with the high expense ratio and accept that returns have historically lagged the broader small-cap index.
- Favorable capture profile with downside capture of 73.8% versus upside capture of 81.45%, indicating better risk management in falling markets
- Extremely shallow maximum drawdown of -0.109% with recovery in 43 days, reflecting strong capital preservation

- Consistent underperformance versus the NIFTY SMALLCAP 250 across all windows from 1Y through 15Y, with negative alpha beyond 1Y
- High expense ratio of 4.4%, which weighs on net returns and helps explain the persistent lag versus the benchmark
