About Company
Accuracap
Accuracap (officially Accuracap Consultancy Services Pvt. Ltd.) is a boutique, technology-driven asset management firm based in India that specializes in quantitative equity investment strategies.
Founded in 2009 by veteran computer scientists Dr. Naresh Gupta and Raman Nagpal, the firm originally served as a family office to manage proprietary wealth using custom algorithms. It transitioned into managing third-party funds for high-net-worth individuals (HNIs) and institutional investors in 2011.
Investment Philosophy
Accuracap's philosophy is rooted in "Deep Science," combining fundamental business analysis with proprietary algorithmic execution to eliminate human emotion:
- Spatio-Temporal Analysis: Uses a unique ranking algorithm that compares every business in the universe against peers over both space (sector) and time (historical cycles) to identify high-quality moats.
- The Pendulum Hypothesis: Based on the belief that while markets are efficient at data assimilation, they are inefficient in their emotional response. The firm buys stocks when the "market pendulum" swings toward reasonable valuations.
- Pure Quantitative Discipline: All stock selection and portfolio construction are driven by rules-based algorithms, ensuring a completely non-emotional and systematic investment process.
- Quality of Earnings Scrubbing: Implements a rigorous three-stage data cleanup process to adjust reported earnings for "one-offs," ensuring the model acts on the true recurring core business strength.
- Equal-Weighted Portfolios: Typically maintains equi-weight construction (e.g., in the PicoPower or Alpha10 strategies) to avoid concentration risk and allow the system to systematically retain winners.
- Quarterly Fundamental Reviews: The algorithm reviews the entire portfolio every quarter for any signs of business model deterioration, prompting immediate exits regardless of market sentiment.
- Skin in the Game: The founders demonstrate high conviction by investing more than 50% of the firm's total corpus alongside their clients.
- Focus on Alpha Generation: Fees are often structured to align with performance, with profit-sharing triggered only on the "alpha" generated over the respective benchmark.
