rate_review TopFund's Take on HDFC BSE Sensex Index Fund - Direct Plan
HDFC BSE Sensex Index Fund - Direct Plan sits in the middle of the pack for Index Funds funds, 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 53/100.
Cost: At 0.21%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 46% below the Index Funds category average of 0.39% (based on 975 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 -1.25 — 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 13.57% 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.
