The harsh portfolio!

I sold my 2% stake in Care Ratings as I don’t have clear visibility on their future growth trajectory. It seems CRISIL has gained significant market share from everyone else as evident in their growth in last few quarters. This leads to buildup of a 2% cash position which I will deploy soon. Updated folio is below.

Hi!

About ITC I have been holding ITC for the last few years, I increased the position size to 8% in 2021 as valuations became very cheap and there was absolute ridicule around the stock. Business wise, they have done reasonably well. This being said, I sold some ITC shares in past few months to bring position size back to 8-10% and rebalance to other positions.

About general investing style I am value focused bottom up investor who likes to incorporate multiples styles within my portfolio. I hope not to make blunders at a portfolio level, and perform reasonably over cycles. Reasonable outperformance over long periods of time makes for unreasonably good track records, thats my attempt!
