Using Dhanik

The Dhanik Score (0–100) blends three objective signals into one number:
- Rating (50%): the fund's percentile rank within its own sub-category.
- Risk-adjusted return (30%): the Sharpe ratio — return per unit of risk.
- Cost (20%): the expense ratio (lower is better).
It maps to a verdict: 80+ Excellent, 65–79 Good, 50–64 Average, below 50 Below average. It's a starting point for research, not a buy/sell call.
