Axis Global Equity Alpha Fund of Fund - Regular Plan - IDCW sits in the middle of the pack for Equity Savings funds, currently carrying a 2-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 50/100.

Cost: At 1.52%, the expense ratio runs 32% above the Equity Savings category average of 1.15%. That gap is worth weighing against the fund's actual performance versus cheaper peers before committing to a long SIP.

Risk-adjusted performance: Over the trailing 1-year period, the fund shows a strong Sharpe ratio of 1.18 — the fund has generated solid returns relative to the volatility it exposed investors to. Separately, annualised volatility of 14.45% is fairly typical for actively managed equity funds.
