PGIM India Large Cap Fund - Dividend

PGIM India Large Cap Fund - Dividend sits in the middle of the pack for Large Cap funds, currently carrying a 2-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 53/100.

Cost: At 1.07%, the expense ratio runs 39% above the Large Cap category average of 0.77%. 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 -1.09 — 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 14.89% is fairly typical for actively managed equity funds.

Who should invest: This fund is best suited to conservative equity investors or those wanting a stable core holding, typically with a 3+ year horizon. The High risk rating means near-term volatility should be expected — this isn't a fund to check daily.
