rate_review TopFund's Take on HDFC Low Duration Fund - Growth

HDFC Low Duration Fund - Growth holds up reasonably well within the Low Duration Fund 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 69/100.

Cost: At 0.46%, the expense ratio runs 10% above the Low Duration Fund category average of 0.42%. 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 -0.71 — 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 0.6% is on the lower side, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.

Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Debt fund.
