TopFund's Take on HDFC Nifty India Consumption Index Fund - Direct Growth Plan
HDFC Nifty India Consumption Index Fund - Direct Growth Plan holds up reasonably well within the Thematic category. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 76/100.
Cost: At 0.44%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 56% 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 -0.75 — 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 16.76% 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.
