TopFund's Take on Kotak Contra Fund - Regular Plan - Growth
Kotak Contra Fund - Regular Plan - Growth ranks among the stronger performers in the Value Oriented category, backed by a 4-star rating. Consistent 3-year performance combined with a strong rating makes this one of the more credible options in its space. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 85/100.
Cost: At 0.7967%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 20% below the Value Oriented category average of 1.0% (based on 122 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 -0.37 — 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 14.16% is fairly typical for Value Oriented 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.
