Risks to the Investment Approach

   • While it is tempting to view investment in such companies as having faster growth there are certain market
     conditions when such investment styles are likely to under-perform.

   • These businesses are typically faster growing companies, with market ascribing higher valuation multiples in
     cognizance of this growth. While we expect in the medium-to-long term that faster growing businesses will continue
     to find market acceptance, market conditions which typically favor value style significantly may cause under-
     performance due to this approach

   • Most of the old economy companies in India have significant linkages to government policies. Any perception or
     change in government policies that is likely to benefit this old economy companies may cause market sentiment to
     shift favourably to such companies, from time to time

   • “Pioneering Innovations” focused approach typically has high representation to emerging technologies and
     correspondingly lower representation to companies that operate in old economy sectors like metals, thermal power,
     corporate banking, traditional FMCG, traditional IT Services etc. Phases where such sectors benefit (either due to
     massive risk off or significant change in government policy to revive sectors like metals, thermal power, PSU banks
     etc) may witness under-performance for such an approach

                                                                                                                           26
