TopFund's Take on ICICI Prudential ELSS Tax Saver Fund - Direct Plan - IDCW
ICICI Prudential ELSS Tax Saver Fund - Direct Plan - IDCW sits in the middle of the pack for Multi Asset Allocation funds, currently carrying a 2-star rating. Returns have been soft relative to what the category has offered — worth checking if this is a temporary phase or a longer pattern. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 52/100.
Cost: At 0.28%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 55% below the Multi Asset Allocation category average of 0.62% (based on 211 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 -0.92 — 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 13.54% is fairly typical for Multi Asset Allocation funds.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Hybrid fund. The High risk rating means near-term volatility should be expected — this isn't a fund to check daily.
