TopFund's Take on DSP ELSS Tax Saver Fund - Regular Plan - IDCW

DSP ELSS Tax Saver Fund - Regular Plan - IDCW ranks among the stronger performers in the ELSS category, backed by a 4-star rating. Consistent 3-year performance combined with a strong rating makes this one of the more credible options in its space. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 81/100.

Cost: At 0.91%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 14% below the ELSS category average of 1.06% (based on 157 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 negative Sharpe ratio of -1.2 — over the past year, returns haven't kept pace with the volatility involved, even before accounting for the risk-free rate. Separately, annualised volatility of 15.1% is fairly typical for ELSS funds.

Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors looking to claim the ₹1.5 lakh Section 80C tax deduction, who are comfortable with the mandatory 3-year lock-in. The High risk rating means near-term volatility should be expected — this isn't a fund to check daily.
