Evaluation
Value Erosion
Value erosion via entry in the wrong script.
Three capabilities. Alpha lives only where all three meet.
Section 1: The Alpha Creation Framework
Most investors bring one or two of these to the SME market.
The gaps between them are where capital gets destroyed.
Value Erosion
Value erosion via entry in the wrong script.
Execution Failure
Value erosion through failed execution you didn't see coming.
Missed Opportunity
The opportunity lost because you couldn't participate at the stage where the return is made.
The Alpha Creation Framework
Deal Access
Deal access through Pre-IPO and SME IPO deal flow through network and proprietary pipeline of vetted opportunities.
The Grobiz Edge
This pipeline was built through our Founder's decade of hands-on SME ecosystem work via MSMEx and CorpAcumen, giving us access years before a DRHP is ever filed. You cannot replicate a decade of trust with a cheque book.
Evaluation Lens
Pattern recognition across hundreds of SME financials and early warning systems that aim to catch anomalies before capital moves.
The Grobiz Edge
Team expertise spanning the SME ecosystem, audit and forensic analysis, valuations, and execution — powered by BeyondRH: our proprietary institutional research platform operated under our SEBI RA mandate, and validated through a strong peer-investor network.
Continuous Monitoring
Team expertise spanning the SME ecosystem, audit and forensic analysis, valuations, and execution validated through a strong peer-investor network.
The Grobiz Edge
A dedicated analyst team, stewardship insight, and sponsors whose CXO-level operating experience means we read management behaviour, not just management commentary.
How We Participate
We evaluate over 300 companies a year. We invest in fewer than 5%. That number is not a boast, it is the standard. We enter early. We stay disciplined. We exit when the thesis is complete.
Pre-IPO
We invest at valuations that reflect a private business, not a listed one. The listing event is not our exit — it is our first proof point.
IPO
We participate selectively, as anchor investors, in companies that have already passed our evaluation standard. Position size follows conviction, not allocation appetite.
Post-IPO
We add through primary and secondary participation where monitoring confirms the thesis is intact and institutional discovery is still ahead.
Capital Allocation Principles
Two jobs, running simultaneously: preserve capital, compound it efficiently.
Exiting weak narratives before earnings confess.
We identify stress before it reaches the P&L: lengthening cash-conversion cycles, unfunded capex stories, raw-material and energy cost shocks, rising leverage, increasing promoter pledges. When these signals appear, we do not wait for the quarterly result to confirm them.
Entering before re-rating triggers, not after.
We position ahead of the events that re-rate SME businesses: completed capex with trial orders executed, order-book visibility, critical vendor qualifications, mainboard transition eligibility, and quality companies available at fair valuations during market stress.
Portfolio Construction
Concentration follows evidence, not enthusiasm. Discovery keeps us close to the market. Conviction is where we concentrate once we've been proven right.
₹2–2.5 Cr
Early-stage allocations in emerging SME stories, sized to build a proprietary thesis while execution is tracked in real time.
₹5–7.5 Cr
The next stage of allocation, extended as ambition, addressable market and operating capability all expand alongside proven execution.
₹10–15 Cr
Concentrated positions in matured businesses demonstrating structural growth, cash generation, and credible mainboard migration potential.
Investment Convictions
We do not use filters to narrow a list. We use them to enforce our beliefs. We believe wealth is compounded, not traded. Our exit focus is mid-term (2 years) to long-term (5 years).
Management quality is our primary gate. Experience and pedigree matter, but founder coachability matters most the ability to lead an SME toward public market leadership.
We do not fund capital-heavy expansion. The business model must be inherently asset-light and capital-efficient built for scalability without proportional reinvestment at every stage of growth.
Niche is another word for limited. We look at high growth, expanding TAM with an elements of the market leadership in sunrise industry.
Topline growth is only valuable when it compounds capital efficiently. We aspire for PAT growth above 30% and Capital Efficiency above 25% disciplined thresholds, applied without exception.
