TopFund's Take on Bandhan Innovation Fund - Direct Plan - IDCW
Bandhan Innovation Fund - Direct Plan - IDCW holds up reasonably well within the Thematic category, backed by a 4-star rating. Recent 1-year performance has been notably strong, though momentum like this doesn't always hold over longer periods. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 77/100.
Cost: At 0.87%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 12% below the Thematic category average of 0.99% (based on 873 comparable funds). Lower costs compound in your favour over long holding periods.
Risk-adjusted performance: Over the trailing 1-year period, the fund shows a moderate Sharpe ratio of 0.61 — decent risk-adjusted performance, without being exceptional. Separately, annualised volatility of 16.18% is fairly typical for Thematic funds.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Equity fund. Given the Very High risk rating, this fund is not suited to short-term goals or investors who may need to exit within 2-3 years.
