How this is computed

Each verdict is computed from this fund's own metrics against its sub-category — the number behind it is shown, not a black-box rating. The stars weight the same ground 60/15/10/15 (performance/risk/cost/downside) across every fund in the peer group. Ranked within Gold ETF (same plan and option). Based on a 1-year record — this fund is too young for a 3-year CAGR, so its performance is ranked on 1Y against the same peers. 11 of the 24 Gold ETF funds in this cohort carry the full record the stars need, so they are the ones ranked against.

Measured on this fund’s own NAV history, peak to trough to the day it regained the peak. Falls shallower than 5% are left out. A recovery date is when the NAV got back, not when any particular investor did — that depends on when they bought.

Index funds and ETFs simply track a benchmark such as the Nifty 50 rather than trying to beat it. They charge far lower fees than active funds, and their return is the index's return minus that small cost.
