Investment Objective and Approach

The fund seeks to generate capital appreciation by investing in equity and equity related securities of corporates that could benefit from ongoing structural changes and economic reforms in the country. The DSP India T.I.G.E.R. Fund primarily focuses on investing in the infrastructure sector. The fund is benchmarked against the BSE India Infrastructure Total Return Index, reflecting its alignment with this critical sector of the economy.

As an equity fund, it is required by SEBI regulations to invest at least 80% of its assets in equity and equity-related securities. This means the majority of the fund's corpus is directed towards companies that are directly involved in or benefit from infrastructure development in India. The portfolio is well diversified across sectors, market capitalisation and between private & PSU companies and will get benefit from increased government spending on infrastructure and increased private participation and revival in the corporate capex cycle.

The fund follows a thematic investment approach, targeting companies that stand to benefit from India's infrastructure boom, including construction, power generation, industrial machinery, and related sectors. The investment strategy is guided by the asset allocation specified in the Scheme Information Document (SID), ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements while aiming to capture the growth potential within the infrastructure sector. By investing in a diversified portfolio of infrastructure-related companies, the fund seeks to capitalize on the ongoing and future growth opportunities in this vital sector, making it a strategic choice for long-term investors.
