Cohesion MK Best Ideas' Investment Strategy

High-Conviction, Concentrated Portfolio

Cohesion MK Best Ideas typically holds 20–25 stocks at any time. The fund only invests in stocks where Madhu Kela and his team believe there is substantial upside and limited downside over an appropriate time frame. This concentrated, benchmark-agnostic approach allows the fund to look very different from broad Indian stock market indices.

Private Equity Rigour

Before making an investment, the team conducts exhaustive research, including deep relationships with company suppliers, customers, bankers, current and former management teams, sector academics, and government officials overseeing the relevant industry. This level of information access, built over Madhu Kela's three decades in Indian markets, is the fund's core competitive advantage.

Adjusting Between Capital Preservation and Appreciation

One of the defining characteristics of Cohesion MK Best Ideas is its ability to shift between capital preservation and maximum capital appreciation depending on market conditions. This dynamic positioning has contributed to the fund's track record of outperforming across different market environments since launch in August 2020.

Early Identification of Scalable Business Models

Madhu Kela's stated investment edge is identifying passionate entrepreneurs and scalable business models early and nurturing them throughout their wealth-creation journey. This approach echoes his track record at Reliance Mutual Fund, where he identified multi-bagger stocks in small and mid-cap companies well before institutional interest.

Selective Contrarian Bets

The Cohesion MK Best Ideas portfolio includes several positions in businesses that are currently under-appreciated by the market. These are companies where the fund perceives a mismatch between the current price and intrinsic value.

Learnings From Cohesion MK Best Ideas Portfolio

Owning Growth at a Reasonable Price

The Cohesion MK Best Ideas portfolio follows a disciplined approach to valuation. The fund focuses on companies where earnings growth looks strong, but the market’s growth expectations still appear moderate. This approach helps the fund avoid paying excessive prices for growth and keeps valuation discipline at the centre of portfolio construction.

Sector Rotation as Market Conditions Change

The portfolio shows changes in sector exposure over time. The fund rotates across sectors based on market conditions and investment opportunities. Exposure has increased in areas such as financials, pharma, and defence when conditions supported the thesis.

Small and Mid-Caps With Multi-Bagger Potential

Madhu Kela built his reputation by identifying potential multi-bagger stocks in small and mid-cap Indian companies. The Cohesion MK Best Ideas portfolio continues this approach. The fund sometimes takes larger ownership positions of around 5–7% in select companies, showing strong conviction behind these investments.
