The strategy takes a broad view of infrastructure. It includes "Core Infrastructure" like roads, ports, and power plants, as well as "Allied Sectors" such as cement, steel, capital goods, and logistics. It also looks at companies involved in the "Make in India" initiative and defense manufacturing.
Infrastructure is closely tied to the capital expenditure (CapEx) cycle of the economy. These companies often perform best when interest rates are stable and the government or private sector is heavily investing in physical assets. Because of this, the strategy can go through periods of high growth or relative stagnation depending on the economic climate.
The fund managers use a rigorous "Business, Management, and Valuation" (BMV) framework to filter out companies with unsustainable debt. They prioritize companies with strong order books, efficient execution capabilities, and the ability to generate positive cash flows despite the capital-intensive nature of their industry.
Infrastructure projects typically have long gestation periods. To see the full benefit of a company's order book translating into earnings, an investment horizon of 5 years or more is generally recommended. This allows the portfolio to ride out short-term fluctuations in government spending or interest rate changes.
As with other ICICI Prudential PMS offerings, the expenses usually include a fixed management fee (typically around 2.25% p.a.) and an exit load of 1% if you withdraw within the first 12 months. Operating expenses, including audit and custody fees, are capped as per SEBI guidelines.
