Strategy Objective

Polaris aims to generate consistent alpha through:

Concentrated exposure to high-momentum equities
Market-aware allocation shifts
Systematic execution discipline
It is designed for investors seeking strategy-driven, non-emotional equity investing aligned to a 3+ year horizon.
Portfolio Construction Logic

Polaris follows a structured framework.

1
Regime Identification

Determining where the market stands in its cycle before a single position is taken.

2
Thematic Screening

Isolating sectors and themes with structural tailwinds aligned to the prevailing regime.

3
Quantitative Filtering

Running candidates through a multi-factor model to rank quality, momentum, and risk.

4
Trend Confirmation

Validating that price behaviour supports the thesis before committing capital.

5
Position Sizing & Allocation

Deploying capital with conviction while keeping risk concentration in check.

Market + Quant Integration

Judgment at the top. Discipline in execution.

Our Human Layer
Structural cycle interpretation

We read where markets are in the long and short-term debt cycle to position ahead of regime shifts.

Event risk assessment

Discretionary overlays account for geopolitical, macro, and policy-driven tail risks before they hit portfolios.

Thematic bias selection

Human judgment identifies high-conviction secular themes aligned with the current market regime.

Our Machine Layer
Multi-factor signal generation

Proprietary algorithms score stocks across momentum, quality, and value factors simultaneously.

Backtesting across cycles

Every signal is stress-tested against historical bull, bear, and sideways market environments.

Real-time execution

Algorithmic order routing ensures speed, precision, and zero emotional interference at entry and exit.

Continuous model optimization

The system self-refines as new data arrives, keeping the edge sharp across changing conditions.

Conclusion

The integration enhances adaptability and consistency. When human foresight guides the strategy and machines handle execution, the result is a portfolio that thinks clearly and acts decisively — in every market environment.

Fee Structure

Performance-Aligned. Investor-First.

Polaris is structured on a capital-doubling performance model.

Your compounding journey, cycle by cycle.

Model below uses Clearmind's published fee and withdrawal assumptions. Adjust starting capital and number of doublings to explore your own scenario.

  1. 1Double — your capital is assumed to double (100% gross gain).
  2. 2Pay — 12.5% tax on the gain, then 20% performance fee on what's left after tax.
  3. 3Withdraw & reinvest — you take out 10% of what you started the cycle with; the rest rolls forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions, answered.

The minimum investment is ₹50 Lakhs as per SEBI regulations for Portfolio Management Services. This ensures adequate diversification within the concentrated strategy framework.

There is no regulatory lock-in. However, Polaris is designed for a 3+ year investment horizon. Early withdrawals may impact performance as the strategy requires time to compound through market cycles.

In PMS, stocks are held directly in your demat account, so capital gains tax applies on each transaction. Short-term gains (held < 1 year) are taxed at 20%, and long-term gains (held > 1 year) above ₹1.25 Lakhs are taxed at 12.5%. Your CA can optimise tax harvesting within the PMS structure.

You receive regular performance reports with detailed attribution analysis. Since stocks sit in your own demat account, you also have full real-time visibility through your broker platform.

Polaris benchmarks against the Nifty 500 Total Return Index, though the strategy's alpha-generation approach means it may deviate significantly from any single benchmark during certain market phases.

Three key differences: (1) your stocks sit in your own demat — full ownership and transparency, (2) the strategy is concentrated with 15-25 high-conviction positions vs. 50-80 in most mutual funds, and (3) the fee structure is purely performance-aligned with zero fixed management fee.

Yes. You can request a partial or full redemption at any time. Liquidation typically takes 3-5 business days depending on market conditions. There are no exit loads or penalties.
