Identity Theft

Theft occurs when someone wrongfully uses your personal information to obtain services in your name. Protect yourself against ID theft.

  • Destroy any piece of paper that contains your login and password.

  • Never share your personal information with a stranger or any third party.

  • Update your contact numbers, address, or email ID with the latest ones.

Invest Only in Profitable Stocks

We do not believe in turnaround stories until they have a proven track record. The most important philosophy while selecting a stock is the consistency in returns over a long period of time. There are no good or bad stocks. The company is either good or bad. Stocks are just stocks.

Large Cap And Large-Mid Caps Alone

We do not risk our client’s hard-earned money by investing in small cap or low midcap stocks. For us, the considerable size of the business is extremely important when committing any investment.

Our Bullish View On Indian Markets

Like any other asset class, equity markets in India will continue to grow! Previous decades of upward market movement are a testament to that. Our bullish view is not for a few months or a few years, but for the entire lifetime of Equity Markets.

Consumption Will Continue To Grow

India’s current per capita income, when compared to several other western countries, is way less. As the per capita income increases, the focus will shift from basic necessity to several other consumption-led items. The consumption industry in Western countries is vast; there is no reason why India cannot match up to their consumption levels with income levels improving every year.

Price Is What We Pay, And Value Is What We Get

When we buy a stock, we actually buy ownership in a company. The future value of a stock is a function of present value, and the higher the price we pay, the lower our returns will be. It is unsustainable optimism which makes stocks too expensive. When pessimism sets in, the lesser price of a stock makes it cheap. Our investment team spends a lot of time understanding the hidden values before we compare them with the prices.

Risk Management

Our view on our Quant Fund is that markets, in general, will continue to have random movements. Considering volatility as our friend, we build positions on derivatives by selling volatility.

Only Long Term And No Churns

“If you aren’t thinking about owning a stock for ten years, don’t even think about owning it for ten minutes.” None of our investments made so far in any of our client’s portfolios are ever churned unless something goes terribly wrong with a business.

Be A Contrarian

Just think about it – if you believe in the same things that everyone around you believes in, your returns will be more or less the same as people around you. It takes different thinking to outperform.

No Technical And Fundamentals

We have banned Technical Analysis in our offices. We do not believe in any technical analysis when it comes to investing in stocks. For us, these are great businesses led by great managements.
