Should You Buy?
The fund prefers growing businesses that are available at reasonable valuations. It is more inclined towards stable and quality businesses and stays away from cyclical businesses. The fund remains conscious of the benchmark while taking top-down sectoral calls and shuns cash calls. It usually runs positive active bets of 30-50%. The fund has exhibited a sharp outperformance over the past year. Its direct plan, which shines over longer time frames, is a worthy pick even as the regular plan variant is weighed down by costs.
