Key Insight
The pure-equity twin of Large Cap Multi Asset (Strategy 04). Same 20 Nifty 100 momentum names, same 4-week rebalance, but no debt or gold overlay. Removing the defensive sleeve adds 2.37 percentage points of CAGR (27.40 versus 25.03) but deepens max drawdown by 4.00 percentage points (-27.23 versus -23.23) and shaves Sharpe by 0.04 (1.24 versus 1.28). Pick this card if you want pure large-cap momentum and are willing to size your own risk budget. Lowest min capital among focused largecap cards at ₹92,000.
