Investment philosophy
Whitespace Fund I's AIF approach blends valuation discipline with growth conviction, tilting toward whichever side the cycle is paying for. It is benchmarked to the NIFTY 50 Index but invests with conviction rather than hugging the index.
Conviction over the index
A focused book of roughly 50 holdings means the highest-conviction ideas actually move the portfolio.
Through the cycle
A 6-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 dependable aif strategy that scores well across our pillars.
Nyra scores Whitespace Fund I - Equity Plus 8.2/10, on a since-inception CAGR near 21.9% and a 3-year CAGR of 16%. 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.”
