It follows an investment style of Growth at Reasonable Price (GARP) for stock picking. This means that, given the underlying growth in earnings of a company, a reasonable price is to be paid to buy that stock in the portfolio.

The Fund aims to invest in companies that are fundamentally strong with controlled borrowings, consistent revenue growth, focus on profitability, higher return on capital than cost of capital and consistent operating cash-flows generation.  Such companies may generate free cash flows for future expansion and avoid dilution of existing shares.

Owing to this combined approach of GARP plus Competitive Franchise, UTIMastershare Unit Scheme may invest in companies where,
