Research on the Company
Marten & Co.
Marten & Co Ltd provides non-independent research for ICGF
Indian powerhouse
IGC’s NAV is up 28.8% since our last note was published on 23 March 2016 (its price is up 20.1%) yet, in recent weeks, its discount has widened to 20.4%. There is no good reason why the discount should be widening, in our view.
Compounding machine
India has one of the fastest growing economies in the world and India Capital Growth (IGC), the only London listed fund with a portfolio of predominantly small and mid-cap Indian companies, is positioned to benefit from that growth. The investment adviser likens the fund to a “compounding machine”. He aims to identify reasonably rated but growing, cash-generative companies that reinvest their cash flow and hold them until their rating is no longer justified by their growth prospects.
