HDFC Balanced Advantage Fund Direct Growth recorded a NAV of ₹549.74 on 29 September 2026, declining 0.24% from the previous valuation. As a balanced advantage or dynamic asset allocation scheme, the fund combines equity with debt and other fixed-income exposure rather than operating as a pure-equity portfolio.
The return profile varied considerably across the periods displayed. The one-year return stood at -1.49%. Over three years, the scheme generated a CAGR of 10.20%, while the five-year annualised return was higher at 13.26%. The difference between the one-year and five-year figures was 14.75 percentage points.
The scheme managed approximately ₹107,296 crore, making it one of the largest funds in the 20-scheme set. The Direct Growth expense ratio stood at 0.77%. Minimum SIP and minimum lump-sum investments were both ₹100, and the latest fund profile showed an operating history of 13 years.
Its dynamic allocation mandate means the equity holdings visible at any point should be read alongside the debt and cash components of the portfolio. The scheme can adjust these exposures over time under its investment framework. As a result, comparisons with pure-equity funds based only on headline return numbers can miss the structural difference in asset allocation. The daily NAV movement is similarly only one observation within a portfolio that spans more than one asset class.
