Quant Quantamental Fund
Direct · GrowthAI Summary
Quant Quantamental Fund has delivered strong SIP returns of 23.88% over 1Y and 23.01% over 3Y, well ahead of the category average SIP XIRR of 14.1% and 16.82% respectively. Against the NIFTY 50, the fund shows substantial alpha of 14.84% over 1Y and 9.37% over 3Y, with a 3Y fund CAGR of 17.2% versus the benchmark's 7.75%. Alpha has persisted across long horizons, though it narrows to 3.57% over 15Y, indicating the edge is strongest in recent periods.
The fund carries a beta slightly above 1 (1.06 over 3Y), meaning it moves broadly in line with the market but with modestly higher volatility. Downside capture of 99.62% over 3Y against upside capture of 111.26% shows it has participated more fully in rallies than in declines, supporting its favorable Calmar ratio of 1.09 over 3Y. Three drawdown events exceeding 10% and a lengthy 449-day recovery from the maximum drawdown highlight that meaningful drawdown risk exists despite strong risk-adjusted returns.
The portfolio is highly concentrated with only 15 total holdings, and the top 10 account for roughly 64.9% of NAV, led by Piramal Finance at 10.54% and two Adani group names (Adani Enterprises at 8.46% and Adani Green Energy at 8.15%) totaling over 16%. Sector exposure is spread across Power (12%), Pharma (11.4%), Finance (10.5%), Metals (8.5%), and Telecom (7.3%), offering multi-sector variety but with meaningful single-stock and group-level concentration. The small holding count amplifies the impact of any individual position on performance.
Within the Sectoral/Thematic category, the fund clearly outperforms peers on SIP XIRR, beating the category average by roughly 9.8 percentage points over 1Y and 6.2 points over 3Y. Calendar year returns show consistency, with positive results every year from 2021 to 2026, including standout years of 38.04% in 2023 and 27.11% in 2022. However, recent calendar returns of 7.32% in 2025 and 5.49% in 2026 suggest the strong outperformance momentum has moderated.
This fund suits aggressive investors with a high risk tolerance who are comfortable with concentrated portfolios and sectoral/thematic volatility, and it should be treated as a satellite allocation rather than a core holding. A time horizon of at least 5 years is advisable given the 449-day recovery from maximum drawdown and the multi-year nature of thematic cycles. Investors should be prepared for periods of underperformance, as the narrowing long-term alpha indicates returns may converge toward market levels over very long stretches.
