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 Index Funds (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. 324 of the 361 Index Funds in this cohort carry the full record the stars need, so they are the ones ranked against.

Worst falls, and the wait to get back

How far this fund has dropped from a high, and how long it took to reclaim it.

-17.4%18 Feb 2026 → 31 Mar 2026
Still below that high — 41 days down, and no recovery yet.
-8.4%27 Jun 2025 → 29 Aug 2025
Fell over 2 months, back to the old high on 23 Oct 2025 — 2 months under water after the low.

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.

About Index funds & ETFs

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.
