I see your mutual fund portfolio snapshot. Let’s break it down clearly:

Key Observations:

  • UTI Nifty 50 Index Fund Direct Growth

    • Current: ₹2,98,633 (slightly negative, –0.45%, XIRR –2.20%)

    • This fund hasn’t performed well compared to your Motilal Midcap (16.29% XIRR) or Bandhan Small Cap (–5.87% XIRR but small cap usually higher growth potential long term).

  • Motilal Oswal Midcap Fund – Doing well, positive returns, strong potential in next 3–5 years.

  • Bandhan Small Cap – Volatile, but small caps typically rebound strong in bull cycles (high risk/high reward).

  • UTI Nifty 50 – Low returns, better only for very low-risk investors, not matching your growth-oriented plan.


Options Analysis:

  1. Redeem now and switch into Motilal Midcap / Bandhan Small Cap
    ✅ Good if your horizon is 3–5 years, because mid/small caps usually outperform index funds in growth phase.
    ❌ Short-term market volatility may impact entry point.

  2. Wait till no loss, then redeem
    ❌ Market timing is uncertain. Nifty50 is broad market index—if overall market stays flat/down, you may keep waiting unnecessarily.

  3. Wait till 1 year, then redeem
    ✅ This is tax-efficient if your investment in UTI Nifty 50 is still under 1 year (to avoid Short-Term Capital Gains @15%).
    ✅ If already >1 year, this reason doesn’t matter.


Best Decision (Based on Growth Focus):

  • If your UTI Nifty 50 holding is already >1 year, you can redeem now and shift to Motilal Midcap and Bandhan Small Cap in a split (say 70% midcap, 30% small cap for risk balance).

  • If <1 year, it may be better to wait till 1 year completes, then redeem (save tax), unless you expect major rally in mid/small caps very soon.


👉 My recommendation for you (growth-focused, 3–5 year horizon):

  • Redeem UTI Nifty 50 after 1 year holding period (if not yet completed).

  • Re-invest into Motilal Midcap (larger share) + Bandhan Small Cap (smaller share) for higher long-term compounding.
