Alpha
Alpha is the measure of an investment performance on a risk-adjusted price. It compares fund's risk adjusted performance to the benchmark index by taking the volatility of the fund as a factor. It tells the excess return of the investment relative to the return of the benchmark index.
Fund has outperformed its benchmark index
Expense Ratio
AMCs charge the investors an expense ratio to cover the fund’s operating expenses, which is expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. This directly reduces the fund’s returns to its shareholders, and, therefore, the value of the investment. Lower is always better!
Less expense ratio implies better returns over the long term
Return vs FD Rates
Fixed Deposit rate is a virtually risk-free rate where the investor assumes almost no risk on their investment. If fund's return is lower than this rate, investors are better off investing the amount in a FD.

Red Flags
ASM and GSM lists are measures to safeguard investors against volatility and unjustified stock prices. Pledging holdings means taking loans against held promoter shares. Credit ratings tells about the quality of the debt instruments. Funds having stocks in ASM/GSM list, with high pledged promoter holding and debt intruments with low ratings should be handled with caution. Unsolicited tips are sometimes circulated to manipulate the market.
Stocks in portfolio are not in ASM/GSM lists, not a lot of promoter holding is pledged, ratings of debt instruments is high and default probability is low
