The Structural Setup

India's $10 Trillion Growth Window

India is on track to become a $10T economy by 2035, powered by three structural engines: manufacturing expansion, financialisation of household wealth, and consumption acceleration. Small and mid-cap companies sit at the intersection of these engines — and stand to benefit disproportionately.

India's smallcap index has recovered 221% on average after every major drawdown since 2003. The question isn't whether to be in. It's whether you're structured to wait.

From Macro to Alpha

A 4-Step Process from Opportunity to Return

01

The Opportunity

India's $10T GDP trajectory. Structural growth across Manufacturing, Consumption, Financialisation, and Urbanisation.

02

The Leverage

The RH Multibagger framework — bottom-up identification of scalable, high-quality SMID businesses through GARV.

03

The Risk Management

Diversified multicap exposure with dynamic allocation across Large, Mid, and Small caps, plus QIP deal access.

04

The Return

Disciplined tactical hedging to control drawdowns during extended corrections. Asymmetric return profile.

Structural opportunity + conviction selection + multicap risk management + disciplined hedging = asymmetric return profile. Participation in the upside, protection against the downside.
Why RH Rising India

Six Features. Each One Chosen Deliberately.

Closed-Ended 6-Year Structure

A full SMID cycle is 5–7 years. A closed-ended 6-year horizon is engineered to match the cycle, not to accommodate redemption panic. The lock is the feature, not the constraint.

📐

Phased Deployment Over 24 Months

Single lump-sum entry at cycle tops is the silent killer of SMID returns. Your ₹1 Cr enters across multiple tranches, not in one anxious moment.

The GARV Multibagger Framework

A proprietary 4-layer process: Screener → Scorecard → Risk Radar → Pendulum. The same framework that captured IRCTC, KEI Industries, and Neogen Chemicals in the RH PMS.

🛡

Three-Layer Risk Management

A large-cap buffer for phased entry, a 10% derivatives hedging reserve, and position-level risk sizing. Modeled downside scenarios you can walk through before committing.

🔓

Monthly Redemption Window

A release valve for genuine emergencies, exercisable at the fund manager's discretion. It exists so the 6-year discipline doesn't turn into a trap when life demands otherwise.

👤

Named Accountability

Direct access to Anil Rego, the Fund Manager. Not a rotating relationship manager. One 30-minute annual call with the PM is standard. Hard questions answered before market open.

Proprietary Process

How GARV Builds a 20-Stock Conviction Portfolio

Every AIF claims a proprietary process. Most collapse under questioning. Ours is four layers, each verifiable, each applied in sequence. GARV: Growth At Reasonable Valuation.

Step 01 — Screener

Universe Filter

1,500+ listed Indian SMID companies. Filtered by earnings-growth trajectory, ROCE trend, debt sustainability, and valuation band. Narrows to ~150 candidates.

📊
Step 02 — Scorecard

Quantitative + Qualitative

Each company scored across earnings growth, margin expansion, cash conversion, management quality, and governance. Threshold: 7.5/10 to enter deeper analysis.

🛡
Step 03 — Risk Radar

Pre-Entry Stress Test

Stress-tested against sector cyclicality, regulatory risk, promoter-level concentration, and downside scenarios. Positions that cannot clear the Radar don't enter, regardless of GARV score.

Step 04 — Pendulum

Sizing & Sequencing

Determines how much capital goes in, when, and what triggers exit. IRCTC identified at ₹320 on a GARV score of 8.4, held through 2022, exited at ₹980.

The Wealth Creation Equation

How the Multibagger Framework Creates Wealth

ΔEPS (Earnings Growth)×ΔP/E (Multiple Re-Rating)=Wealth Creation
When earnings grow 2x and the multiple re-rates 2.5x, absolute return is 5x. That is the mathematical core of the multibagger outcome.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions We Answer Before You Ask

What is the minimum investment?
₹1 Crore, in line with SEBI Category III AIF regulations. Deployed over 24 months via phased drawdown notice — not a lump-sum payment on Day 1.
What is the lock-in period?
Six years. Closed-ended by design, matched to the full SMID cycle. A monthly redemption window is available at the fund manager's discretion for genuine emergencies.
How is this different from a mutual fund?
A mutual fund must track a benchmark, maintain daily liquidity, and hold 40–80 positions. Our AIF holds 20–25 positions, can hedge via derivatives, and is closed-ended — enabling conviction-portfolio strategy without redemption-driven forced selling.
How is it different from a PMS?
PMS offers your own demat, higher liquidity, broader exposure. AIF offers concentrated conviction (20–25 stocks), structural SMID tilt, and hedging flexibility PMS cannot deploy. Many RH clients hold both.
What are the fees?
Two fee classes: Variable (Performance) class with 8% hurdle rate and 20% performance fee above hurdle with a high-water mark; or a Fixed class with a single all-in management fee. Full economics in the PPM.
How is a Category III AIF taxed?
Income is taxed at the fund level. Distributions to investors are net-of-tax. We supply a CA-ready annual tax memo. NRI investors receive a CPA-ready pack including PFIC classification guidance for US filers.
What happens if the fund manager leaves?
The co-PM structure — Rego, Chauhan, and Ranjan — ensures continuity. Full key-person and succession provisions are written into the Placement Memorandum.
Who should NOT invest in this AIF?
If you need the ₹1 Cr back within 3 years, this fund is not for you. If your core liquidity depends on this allocation, not for you. If you prefer daily liquidity or benchmark-tracking returns, not for you. We'd rather say it now.
