What these numbers mean

RS rating (1-99) ranks a fund's recent momentum against its category - higher is stronger right now. King Score (0-100) is a long-term quality composite (returns, consistency, drawdown, risk-adjusted return) versus peers. Max drawdown is the worst peak-to-bottom fall the fund has ever experienced. Rolling returns test every possible start date, so one lucky (or unlucky) entry point can't distort the picture. Every formula behind this page is public - see how we calculate every number.

Motilal Oswal Large and Midcap Fund review: the bottom line

On the data, its strengths are a strong long-term quality score (88/100), leading current momentum (RS 96), beating the Nifty 500 in 100.0% of 3-year windows, a low expense ratio (0.68%).
