Bandhan Balanced Advantage Fund
Bandhan Balanced Advantage has shifted decisively toward equities at 67%, betting on sustained market strength while anchoring downside with quality government bonds. The manager is rotating away from IT and defensive sectors like energy, pivoting instead toward banks, financials, and consumption plays—signaling conviction in domestic economic resilience and credit growth. The aggressive reduction in cash and near-term liquidity suggests confidence in near-term market direction, though concentration in top-10 holdings at 32% warrants monitoring for volatility.
