TopFund's Take on Sundaram Long Term Tax Advantage Fund Series III Direct Plan - Growth

Sundaram Long Term Tax Advantage Fund Series III Direct Plan - Growth holds up reasonably well within the Short Duration category, backed by a 4-star rating. TopFund's composite Health Score, which weighs rating, 3-year CAGR, expense ratio and fund size, puts it at 70/100.

Cost: At 0.28%, the expense ratio is meaningfully cheaper — about 30% below the Short Duration category average of 0.4% (based on 119 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 0.32 — returns have only marginally compensated for the risk taken. Separately, annualised volatility of 17.0% is fairly typical for Short Duration funds.

Who should invest: This fund is best suited to investors whose goals and risk appetite align with a Debt fund.
