TopFund's Take on HDFC Liquid Fund - Growth Plan
HDFC Liquid Fund - Growth Plan holds up reasonably well within the Liquid category, currently carrying a 3-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 70/100.
Cost: At 0.2%, the expense ratio runs 43% above the Liquid category average of 0.14%. 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 -8.04 — 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 0.19% is on the lower side for a Liquid fund, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to conservative investors prioritising capital stability and predictable income over high growth.
