TopFund's Take on Nippon India Medium Duration Fund - Direct Plan - Growth Option
Nippon India Medium Duration Fund - Direct Plan - Growth Option holds up reasonably well within the Medium Term Fund category, backed by a 5-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 79/100.
Cost: At 0.5%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 32% below the Medium Term Fund category average of 0.74% (based on 43 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 modest Sharpe ratio of 0.05 — returns have only marginally compensated for the risk taken. Separately, annualised volatility of 1.42% is on the lower side for a Medium Term Fund fund, suggesting a comparatively smoother ride.
