Objective – The investment focus is on growth-oriented enterprises in certain areas that are driving market share migration from unorganized to organized players. Several sectors are poised to alter substantially over the next decade as India’s economy increases in scope and complexity. A number of significant factors are causing a shift in the competitive advantage balance in favor of organized firms
Investment Approach – Unorganized enterprises make up a large sector of India’s economy, accounting for around 35 percent of the country’s GDP. Over the next decade, as the economy increases from $ 2.6 trillion to $ 5 trillion, it will face social, technological, scale, legal, tax, and regulatory challenges. These developments are expected to put unorganized companies in certain industries’ present business strategies to the test. As a result, well-established organized firms in such areas would gain market share while boosting margins, potentially resulting in extremely high profits growth. The BC-AD fund was designed to profit from the impending transfer of market share from unorganized to organized players. The fund would put its money into well-known, well-organized players who would be gaining ground. Unorganized players have taken market share from organized players, resulting in a greater revenue growth rate than their sector. Over the next decade, their significant topline growth, combined with the benefits of operating leverage, could help them achieve a better profits trajectory.

What would impact BC AD performance case if Government regulation changes on taxation, GST, etc.?
Despite the fact that The study effort, which finally resulted in this subject, started with the introduction of the GST, neither the GST nor government rules are the main emphasis of this theme. Demography, urbanization, technology, international environmental compliances, and other factors are highlighted as consolidation drivers on page 2. Government tax restrictions are one of the factors that contribute to sector-wide consolidation, but they are not the only ones.
In India, a number of companies have merged in the previous 20 to 30 years without reference to the GST or any other legislative reforms. Consequently, the value of this topic is unlikely to be affected by a change in the administration or policy. Based on a small sample size in this context, I can say that since liberalization in 1991, none of the new administrations have undone vitally essential previous government programs (like the GST), notwithstanding the concerns of the markets.
