Edelweiss BSE Internet Economy Index Fund - Regular Plan - IDCW

Edelweiss BSE Internet Economy Index Fund - Regular Plan - IDCW lags behind most of its peers in the Index Funds category, currently carrying a 1-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 45/100.

Cost: At 0.53%, the expense ratio runs 33% above the Index Funds category average of 0.4%. 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 negative Sharpe ratio of -0.72 — 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 18.64% is fairly typical for actively managed equity funds.

Who should invest: This fund is best suited to cost-conscious investors happy to simply match the market rather than try to beat it. The High risk rating means near-term volatility should be expected — this isn't a fund to check daily.
