Portfolio Management Services(PMS)
As part of building a well-diversified, long-term portfolio, it is important to include strategies that go beyond traditional, broad- based investments and allow for focused participation in high quality businesses. Portfolio Management Services (PMS) are professionally managed equity investment solutions designed for investors seeking higher return potential than traditional mutual funds through concentrated, conviction-driven portfolios. Unlike pooled vehicles, PMS portfolios are managed on an individual client basis, with investors directly owning the underlying stocks in their demat accounts.
Unlike standardized investment products, PMS portfolios are managed with flexibility and transparency, allowing fund managers to respond to changing market conditions while staying aligned with the core investment philosophy. PMS can serve as a valuable component of the overall portfolio—
complementing mutual funds and other asset classes while offering the potential for differentiated returns.
As markets become more competitive and alpha generation through diversified mutual funds becomes harder, PMS has gained relevance among mass-affluent and HNI investors who are willing to accept short-term volatility in pursuit of superior long-term returns. PMS also appeals to investors who value manager skill, transparency, and active decision-making over standardized investment products.
How PMS Works?
Clients invest a minimum threshold amount into a PMS strategy.
A professional fund manager constructs a focused portfolio, typically holding 10–25 stocks.
Investment decisions—buying, selling, and rebalancing—are taken at the manager’s discretion.
Stocks are held directly in the client’s demat account, ensuring transparency and ownership.
Performance, holdings, and investment rationale are reported periodically.
Fees may be fixed or performance-linked, subject to predefined hurdle rates.
