Fund Philosophy

Executing India — Not Selling It as a Theme.

“

India is the only major economy where demographic dividend, capital market deepening, technology adoption, and manufacturing renaissance are converging simultaneously. We are not selling India as a theme — we are executing India as a high-conviction, disciplined investment mandate with the precision global institutional capital demands.

Proprietary Framework

The ALPHA Investment Framework.

Five disciplined pillars that combine high-conviction India exposure with multi-source alpha, structured liquidity, and active currency management — a true multi-alpha vehicle in one USD-denominated structure.

A
Asymmetric India ConvictionCore 70% allocation to 18–22 high-conviction Indian listed equities across market caps. Bottom-up, fundamental research. Mandatory filters: EPS double in 4 years, ROCE ≥ 18%, management quality score ≥ 7/10. Buy-and-hold, 3+ year horizon per position. Benchmark-agnostic.
L
Liquidity-Conscious Position SizingPosition size capped at 4× average daily turnover for any stock. Maximum single position: 8% at cost. Ensures the portfolio can be fully liquidated in ≤ 15 trading days — a structured liquidity protocol critical for institutional LP redemption management.
P
Pre-IPO & Event Bridge (10–15%)3–5 pre-listing positions sourced through SPVH AMC's existing deal-flow pipeline (SPVH Value Discovery Fund). Access to SEBI-approved pre-IPO allocations and anchor book investments. 12–24 month liquidity events — adding 300–500 bps of incremental alpha unavailable in passive India feeder funds.
H
Hedge-Aware Risk OverlayUp to 15% in EM Asia optionality — selective positions in structurally high-growth markets (Taiwan semiconductors, Korea AI hardware, select ASEAN digital) where India's market does not offer equivalent exposure. Offers a "Best of EM Asia + India Core" in a single vehicle.
A
Active Currency & Redemption ManagementUSD denomination means every basis point of INR depreciation (~3–4% annually, historical average) accrues as additional return to the global LP versus a domestic INR fund. Quarterly redemption windows post 24-month lock-in. Dedicated investor relations in Singapore, Dubai, and London.
Portfolio Construction

A Three-Tier Architecture.

Core India Equity — 70%

18–22 stocks across India's structural growth themes: capital goods, defence, domestic financial services, technology-enabled businesses, and speciality manufacturing. 3–5 year hold. ROCE ≥ 18%, debt-light, with a management quality filter.

Pre-IPO / Event Bridge — 15%

3–5 positions. Pre-listing India opportunities from the SPVH AMC pipeline and anchor book allocations. 12–24 month liquidity-event horizon. Proprietary sourcing through the SPVH Value Discovery Fund deal-flow.

EM Asia Optionality — 10–15%

High-conviction positions where India equity lacks equivalent exposure: Taiwan/Korea AI semiconductor supply chain, ASEAN digital-economy leaders, and China internet/consumer recovery plays. Adds EM alpha unavailable in India-only mandates.

Cash / FX Buffer — 0–10%

USD-denominated liquid instruments during high-valuation / low-opportunity periods. Actively managed — not idle. Deployed on 10%+ corrections in core India markets or the emergence of new pre-IPO opportunities.

The India Alpha Edge

What Sets This Fund Apart.

Four structural advantages that make India Alpha a true multi-alpha vehicle — combining active conviction, proprietary sourcing, institutional liquidity discipline, and a built-in currency tailwind in a single USD-denominated structure.

Multi-Alpha in One Vehicle

The ALPHA framework blends a high-conviction India core with EM Asia optionality and a pre-IPO event bridge — three distinct return engines combined in a single USD-denominated structure, not a one-dimensional India bet.

Proprietary Sourcing Moat

SPVH's UHNI network and the SPVH Value Discovery Fund deal pipeline open access to pre-IPO allocations and anchor books — a sourcing advantage that passive feeders and standalone managers simply cannot replicate.

Institutional Liquidity Discipline

Position sizes are capped at 4× average daily turnover so the portfolio can be fully liquidated in ≤ 15 trading days — a structured liquidity protocol built for institutional LP redemption management from day one.

Built-In Currency Tailwind

USD denomination means every basis point of INR depreciation (~3–4% p.a. historically) accrues as additional return to the global LP versus a domestic INR fund — active currency and redemption management included.
