capital employed, pricing discipline, steady cash generation, PAT improvement, solid balance sheet and steady improvement and above-median

The greatness framework includes companies that invest capital, turn investment into sales, turn sales into profit, turn profit into

buckets based on their relative attractiveness on valuations with respect to their own history.

“We ask investors to own the portfolio for 10 years
Here we churn this equally-weighted portfolio annually
The objective behind this process is to try and generate 26 per cent CAGR over a 10-year holding period by buying companies that are
improving on ‘greatness’ count as well as on accounting scores,” the brokerage said.
