How to read Dhanik risk scores
Using Dhanik

Each Dhanik fund page shows risk two ways: the official SEBI riskometer (Low → Very High) and the hard numbers behind it.
- Std deviation: how much returns bounce around — higher = wilder.
- Sharpe ratio: return per unit of risk — higher is better.
- Beta: how much the fund moves vs its benchmark.
- Max drawdown: the worst peak-to-trough fall.
Read these together — two funds with the same return can carry very different risk.
