Kotak Small Cap Fund
The fund is distinctly tilted toward healthcare services, where three diagnostic and hospital operators occupy the top three slots, signaling the manager's conviction in the sector's growth trajectory within small caps. The portfolio maintains a balanced approach across consumer durables, auto components, and finance, avoiding excessive concentration despite the meaningful top-5 weighting. Recent portfolio tweaks—adding a fintech player while exiting a healthcare stock—suggest selective rotation rather than thesis abandonment, keeping dry powder minimal to stay invested in this market cycle.
