A Student Managed

Investment Fund of IMNU

Introduction
eRT CAPITAL is a fund managed entirely by the students of Institute of Management,
Nirma University. The primary objective of this fund is to provide students with real-time
experience in investment decision-making. This will enable them to have industry-like
exposure in relation to economy, working of financial industry, equity research, portfolio
management and risk assessment. Since such an activity is highly entrepreneurial in
nature, it will improve understanding of financial concepts, business, leadership skills
and communication of students and make them ready for direct induction into financial
industry.

Investment Rationale
eRT CAPITAL will be investing in listed equity space. The main investment objective will
be to out-perform key benchmark indices, such as Nifty and Sensex, net of all fees and
expenses on a consistent basis. The investments will be made strictly upon principles of
fundamental valuation. Equity investments will generally be made across sectors in both
value and growth securities. These sectors include: FMCG, Energy, Health Care,
Financials, IT, Infrastructure etc.

Sources of Money
The Fund can have its capital from certain sources:
1. Fund-raising from students: Like Mutual Fund, the capital can be sourced by
voluntary contributions from students by their participation in the fund. This will
give Investment Team members experience in fund-raising activities similar to
Mutual Funds.
