TopFund's Take on ICICI Prudential ELSS Tax Saver Fund - Growth
ICICI Prudential ELSS Tax Saver Fund - Growth holds up reasonably well within the ELSS- Tax Saver Fund category, currently carrying a 3-star rating. It has delivered steady, if unspectacular, returns over a full market cycle. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 67/100.
Cost: At 1.21%, the expense ratio runs 29% above the ELSS- Tax Saver Fund category average of 0.94%. 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 -0.48 — 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 13.51% is fairly typical for ELSS- Tax Saver Fund funds.
Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors looking to claim the ₹1.5 lakh Section 80C tax deduction, who are comfortable with the mandatory 3-year lock-in. The High risk rating means near-term volatility should be expected — this isn't a fund to check daily.
