Value Research Analysis

Fund Objective & Strategy

A fund which has grown in short order to become the largest in the ELSS
category, Axis Long Term Equity has the performance record to back its
asset size. The fund has been lodged strongly at a five-star rating for the
last three years. The fund's strategy of buying quality stocks with a growth
bias has paid off handsomely, with the fund outpacing its category by big
margins in every year since launch. While selecting stocks, the fund looks
for a superior and scalable business, a high return on capital and secular
growth. The fund is also large-cap oriented, with large-cap allocations
actually climbing from 55 to 70 per cent in the last couple of years. Mid
caps get a 30-40 per cent allocation in the portfolio, with negligible small
caps. The fund, being a later entrant, has managed to skip the bear market
of 2008. Its performance in 2011, however, showed that it is able to contain
loses in a falling market. It has delivered convincing outperformance of
both benchmark and peers in most bull years - be it 2010, 2013 or 2014.
However, this outperformance is also attributable to the exceptional
returns delivered by the fund's 'growth and quality' style of investing in
the last five years. The fund has been overweight on domestic consumer
stocks such as private banks, housing and automobiles, which have been
the front runners of this bull market. Overall it's a solid fund if you like to
own quality businesses in the listed space.

The scheme aims to generate

regular long term capital
growth from a diversified
portfolio of equity and equity
related securities. The
Scheme Will invest in
companies with strong growth
& a sustainable business
model.
