Three-Pillar Framework

IPO Opportunities

Rigorous screening of primary market IPOs with strong fundamentals. Tactical listing-gain capture via exits within days of listing for efficient capital rotation.

Treasury & ASBA Optimization

Investible corpus stays in Fixed Deposits. IPO participation via ASBA ensures FD interest is earned on blocked capital simultaneously with listing gain potential — dual alpha.

Special Situations

Tactical investments in carefully selected market situations offering asymmetric return potential — low risk, high alpha — outside standard primary market activity.

01

Research & Screening

Identify IPOs and special situations with genuine value, strong fundamentals, and clear listing upside through data-driven analysis.

02

Risk Assessment

Capital protection framework applied before every allocation — exposure duration limited, entry based on value not momentum.

03

Strategic Allocation

Optimized deployment across IPO ASBA, treasury FDs, and special situations — zero idle money principle maintained.

04

Active Monitoring

Continuous liquidity and market tracking with dynamic rebalancing across positions and opportunity windows.

05

Exit Discipline

Defined profit-booking and risk control thresholds — listing gains locked in swiftly, capital re-deployed without delay.

Capital Protection as a Core Objective

The fund’s primary objective is to generate superior risk-adjusted returns while preserving investor principal through disciplined, research-led strategies. Capital protection is not a by-product — it is the foundation.

Diversification

Capital spread across IPO, treasury, and special situations to reduce concentration risk.

Liquidity Management

Monthly NAV, subscription, and redemption windows with structured cash flow controls.

Disciplined Allocation

Research-driven deployment within predefined parameters — no speculative overexposure.

Defined Risk Framework

Exposure limits, downside monitoring, and capital protection principles govern every decision.

High Water Mark

Performance fees charged only on gains above prior highest NAV — full alignment with investor interests.

SEBI Compliance

Institutional governance, independent oversight, and transparent investor reporting standards.
