Investment philosophy
Malabar's AIF approach blends valuation discipline with growth conviction, tilting toward whichever side the cycle is paying for. It is benchmarked to the S&P BSE 500 Total Return Index but invests with conviction rather than hugging the index.
Conviction over the index
A focused book of roughly 6 holdings means the highest-conviction ideas actually move the portfolio.
Through the cycle
A 9-year track record across rallies and drawdowns — positioning shifts with the cycle rather than chasing the last quarter.
Risk first
Drawdowns are managed deliberately; the worst peak-to-trough on record is kept in check.
Nyra's read
A high-conviction aif strategy with a strong scorecard.
Nyra scores Malabar - Value Fund 9.1/10, on a since-inception CAGR near 16.3% and a 3-year CAGR of 17.3%. Drawdowns have stayed contained — size the position so that ride is one you can hold.
Best suited to
Investors with a 5-year-plus horizon who want active AIF exposure and can sit through equity drawdowns.
Mind if
A double-digit drawdown would test your nerve, or you need ₹1 Cr+ to commit at the SEBI minimum.
Pairs well with
A steadier core (large-cap or hybrid) so this can play the higher-conviction satellite in your overall allocation.

What investors say
“I held two PMS for four years and couldn't tell you why. One 15-minute review showed me the overlap, the real post-tax number, and one fund worth replacing. Nobody had ever shown me that math.”
