Franklin India Aggressive Hybrid Fund
The fund has significantly increased its liquidity buffer to nearly six percent while maintaining a heavy banking concentration that represents nearly 17 percent of the portfolio, signaling a defensive posture amid market volatility. The manager reduced duration exposure by trimming long-dated government securities and exited cyclical positions like oil stocks, favoring high-quality rated debt and blue-chip equities instead. These moves suggest conviction in a slowdown scenario where large-cap resilience and fixed income stability outweigh growth plays.
