The concept of ASK IEP PMS invests in Indian
entrepreneurs with adequate ‘Skin in the Game’ who have demonstrated high
standards of governance, vision, execution, wisdom, capital allocation, and
capital distribution skills. They run businesses that are amongst the highest
long-term earnings growth.
Investment Philosophy
1) ASK IEP PMSidentifies
large and growing business opportunities with a competitive advantage that are
significant sized (min Rs. 100cr of PBT)
2) The quality of the business should be
good to be able to fund strong growth through internal cash generation. So, it
looks for 20% compounded growth from each business and targets over 25% growth
from the portfolio
3) To fund this growth, the business ROCE
should be over 25% so that growth can be funded and there are surpluses for
dividend
4) The management should have the drive and
have skin in the game to deliver compounded growth period after period
(uncompromised corporate governance is a must). Hence, invest in businesses
with an identifiable business house at the helm with a minimum 25% stake.
5) We seek to identify such businesses at
reasonable discount to value and stay invested for a length of time and make
money as EPS compounds
