TopFund's Take on HDFC Dividend Yield Fund - IDCW Plan
HDFC Dividend Yield Fund - IDCW Plan sits in the middle of the pack for Thematic 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 55/100.
Cost: At 0.87%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 12% below the Thematic category average of 0.99% (based on 876 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 -0.88 — 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 15.53% 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.
