HDFC Pharma and Healthcare Fund
The fund maintains a concentrated bet on Indian pharmaceuticals, with nearly 71% deployed in the sector's established players like Divis and Sun Pharma, while healthcare services holdings like Max and Aster provide diversification. The manager added Cipla and trimmed Sun Pharma's overweight position, signaling a rebalancing toward broader pharma exposure rather than picking winners within the space. With nearly 60% in the top ten holdings, this remains a conviction-driven portfolio suited to investors bullish on India's healthcare sector but sensitive to individual stock risk.
