is five stars. Ratings act as the first filter in fund selection, since they take
FUNDS into account the return as well as risk undertaken to achieve that return.
Risk-adjusted return from a fund is the sole basis of Value Research fund
rating (detailed methodology on page 50). Below are the schemes in various
categories that have been rated five and four star.
