Wires and Cables Demand Drivers: India is doubling its power generation capacity to 900 GW by 2032, with a massive Rs. 9.16 trillion going into transmission. Furthermore, rural electrification, the 500 GW renewable energy target by 2030, and the EV revolution are supercharging demand


Inside the PPFAS Portfolio: Why These Stocks Are Being Added - Insights from Raunak Onkar - Raunak Onkar (Research Head & Fund Manager at PPFAS Mutual Fund) shared some very candid and nuanced views on portfolio holdings. - The key message: buy businesses, then continuously monitor them, nothing is permanent. Here are the exact investment insights distilled from his remarks 1 | Zydus Wellness - PPFAS calls this a “second innings” investment. - They had exited earlier when the portfolio growth was moderating and some products were not performing well. - After studying the company for a few years, they re-entered once strategic changes began. However, Raunak made an important point: 🗣️ Buying a stock does not automatically mean the business will start performing fundamentally better. The fund will closely monitor: ▪️ Growth trajectory ▪️ Distribution expansion ▪️ Performance in new categories like protein and wellness, which are highly competitive - So the stance is wait, watch, and track execution. 2 | Coal India - Raunak emphasized a structural reality investors often ignore. - India’s power system remains deeply dependent on coal for base load energy. Even as hybrid technologies and renewables grow: ▪️ Electrification demand is increasing ▪️ Coal dependence has not fallen dramatically - Coal India therefore remains strategically relevant But he was clear about the nature of the investment: ▪️ Terminal growth of the business is uncertain ▪️ It is not a growth oriented company What makes it attractive instead: ▪️ One of the most profitable coal mining operations globally ▪️ Massive cash generation ▪️ Strong dividend yield cushion 3 | ITC - The regulatory overhang on tobacco has existed for over three decades. - Instead of ignoring it, ITC actively responded by: ▪️ Diversifying away from tobacco ▪️ Investing heavily into consumer businesses This has changed the revenue mix of the company, although profitability is still dominated by tobacco. Another key development: ▪️ Capital allocation improved after demerging capital intensive businesses Raunak highlighted that ITC still has: ▪️ Strong cash generation ▪️ Powerful distribution reach ▪️ Stable dividend profile 🧭 Investor Compass Insight The deeper message behind these investments is simple: - Great investors do not just buy stocks, they continuously reassess the business after buying. Parag Parikh Flexi Cap focuses on companies that provide: ▪️ Durable cash flows ▪️ Dividend protection ▪️ Strategic relevance in the economy - That discipline is what anchors portfolios through market cycles Execution > Narratives No Buy/Sell Recommendation #StocksInFocus #StocksToWatch #PPFAS
