Why Large Cap Strategy

  • Nifty is up approx. 66%* in last 5 years despite the low growth and the COVID-19 lockdown
  • It is up by approx. 4%* from the last one year and has crossed previous peaks, primarily driven by global liquidity and retail participation
  • The Fund’s mandate is to invest a minimum of 80% from Nifty50, which are presumably more trustworthy and financially strong; we further narrow it down to well chosen approx. 20 stocks [v/s 50 stocks in Nifty50] to build a sharper focus and consistent wealth creation over long term
  • Will invest in Indian Companies which have a long-term growth potential and gives investors access to participate in India’s growth story
  • Large Cap Fund not only thrive during a bull run but also stay resilient during market turbulence
  • Fund aims in generating better return than Nifty50, while managing investment / portfolio risk

Identifying companies with strong management and good corporate governance is at the core of the strategy along with growing business at valuations which have potential upside

Identifying companies - value / growth / mispriced

  • Value stock – Stock where value is discerned when long-term growth potential of an Investee Company is not fully reflected in the market price of the stock and which has potential to be better every year by capitalizing on its various strengths like strong brand equity, growing market share, strong management and technological excellence
  • Growth stock – As the term suggests, growth stocks are currently in the growth phase. The super– normal growth could be due to a new product, a new process, growing market share, stronger brand equity, technological breakthrough and unique position in a market, among other factors.
  • Mispriced stock – Stock which is mispriced in near term due to bad news/cyclical downturn
  • Any special situation arising from any change (positive) in management
  • Transformational changes at sector/macro level
