Surge India

Invest in the India Growth Story

A high-conviction equity portfolio of companies selected for their growth potential as India's economy evolves, built on disciplined investing, prudent risk management, and a long-term perspective.

What Drives Surge India

Five Themes, One Investment Framework

We focus on key structural shifts shaping India's growth, each with long-term potential. Every company in the portfolio fits within one of these themes.

  • Domestic Consumption

    Rising incomes are reshaping how India spends and expanding demand across categories. We look for companies positioned to capture this growth as consumption patterns evolve.

  • Logistics & Infrastrucutre

    India is investing in roads, rail, ports, and logistics networks that make it easier and more efficient to move goods across the country. We look for companies that are well placed to capitalize on this growing demand for infrastructure.

  • Import Substitution

    India is steadily building domestic capacity to replace critical imports, while global supply chains are creating new opportunities for domestic manufacturers. We look for companies leading both these shifts.

  • Financialization

    India’s savings, borrowing, and protection needs are steadily moving into formal financial services. We look for companies positioned to grow as credit, insurance, and investments reach more households.

  • Energy Independence

    India is investing in new sources of energy and infrastructure needed to reduce its dependence on energy imports. We back companies helping build this transition across renewables, clean energy, storage, biofuels, and gas infrastructure.

How Surge India is Built and Managed

We build a portfolio of ~30 companies across market caps, each selected for their growth potential and managed with a long-term approach.

  • Investing in Mega Trends

    Some opportunities play out across sectors and over many years. We identify these macro shifts and the sectors that stand to benefit from them as they play out.

  • Strong Risk Management

    We use quantitative rules for position sizes and governance, and review every holding periodically to ensure it continues to earn its place. When the evidence changes, so do our decisions.

  • Decadal Growth Potential

    We look for companies with room to grow for years, a track record of strong execution, and earnings that can compound as the opportunity unfolds.

  • Special Situations

    Some of the sharpest opportunities come from corporate actions, like demergers, spin-offs, and restructurings, where the market may be slow to react. We keep part of the portfolio available for exactly such moments.

How We Invest

  1. 01. Stock Selection

    We first pick the theme and then find the best-positioned companies within it. Every company is assessed on earnings quality, governance track record, market size, and balance sheet health.

  2. 02. Portfolio Allocation and Sizing

    Position sizes are based on liquidity and conviction, with hard limits on individual stock and sector concentration. Core themes make up the bulk of the portfolio, with a smaller allocation to special situations.

  3. 03. Periodic Review

    Every quarter, we review whether the investment thesis still holds. Capital moves towards higher-conviction positions, while themes are given time to deliver. We exit when the thesis changes, not before.
