Note: Universe is top 500 stocks on 6 month average market cap each year (as of Dec for previous calendar years, till 31st October 2018 for 2018). Large-caps are defined as top 100 stocks on market
capitalization, mid-caps as 101-250 , small-caps as 251–500. Average stock returns & median stock returns shown herein above are only to explain the investment objective/strategy. The same should not be
construed as indicative or intended return that the scheme may generate. As the returns shown are dated, the same may or may not be relevant in future.
Average stock return minus Median stock return (for last 13 years)
Difference between average and median returns – an
indicator of how divergent the outliers are from the median
Higher this difference, higher the divergence in returns
and higher the potential to generate excess returns
Ability to identify these outliers could add significant alpha
