Dear Investors, Since the change in sponsor of quant Mutual Fund (erstwhile Escorts Mutual Fund) to quant Group, the new management has consistently strived to enhance the quantitative and qualitative experience for its investors. From the quantitative perspective, we have strived to leverage our extensive expertise in cutting edge investment research to deliver superior returns for the investors. As our investors, you would surely have noticed the enhancement in performance over the past few months, and resultant improvement in performance ranking amongst the peer group. I am confident that the quality of our intellectual capital will continue to manifest in the return performance of quant Mutual schemes in the future as well. On the often overlooked qualitative aspect, I am happy to inform you that we have appointed Karvy Computershare as our R&T agent. Thus, our investors will be able to benefit from the wide pan-India reach of over 220 Karvy Computershare branches across the country for addressing their servicing requirements. In the meantime, we are also in the advanced stages of implementing online transaction facilities, which will further ease your service accessibility. Further, I am happy to disclose that SEBI has also recently granted its approval for our plan to restructure and revamp all our 13 schemes. In this restructuring, we have taken particular care to update the scheme asset allocations in line with best contemporary global practices and in accordance with our vision of providing the best possible value to the investors. Our bouquet of offerings will now include a Multi Cap Fund, Large Cap Focused Fund, Large & Mid Cap Fund, Mid Cap Fund, Small Cap Fund, Consumption Fund, Infrastructure Fund, ELSS, Liquid Fund, Ultra Short Duration Fund, Dynamic Bond Fund, Aggressive Hybrid Fund, and a Multi-Asset Allocation Fund. The details of the proposed schemes are enclosed for your reference, and I am confident that you will find them conforming to your expectations of getting the very best out of investing with quant Mutual. About quant Group Founded in 2007 by an experienced group of market professionals, quant Group’s expertise in the investment management domain has been built upon strong foundations of research and technology, helping it become one of the leading firms in the Indian financial services sector.

The quality of our calls is based on the strength of our intellectual capital, and our unique ability to successfully combine inputs from various market parameters – valuation, liquidity and risk appetite – to arrive at an outcome. Our defined, systematic approach is portable for all traded asset classes, particularly equity, fixed income and commodity. The fund management philosophy of quant Mutual is based on the principals of ‘Active’, ‘Absolute’ & ‘Unconstrained’, which also incidentally happen to be the names of our flagship schemes as per the proposed scheme revamp.

Dear Investors,

Since the change in sponsor of quant Mutual Fund (erstwhile Escorts Mutual Fund) to quant Group, the new management has consistently strived to enhance the quantitative and qualitative experience for its investors. From the quantitative perspective, we have strived to leverage our extensive expertise in cutting edge investment research to deliver superior returns for the investors. As our investors, you would surely have noticed the enhancement in performance over the past few months, and resultant improvement in performance ranking amongst the peer group. I am confident that the quality of our intellectual capital will continue to manifest in the return performance of quant Mutual schemes in the future as well.

On the often overlooked qualitative aspect, I am happy to inform you that we have appointed Karvy Computershare as our R&T agent. Thus, our investors will be able to benefit from the wide pan-India reach of over 220 Karvy Computershare branches across the country for addressing their servicing requirements.

NOTICE TO ALL UNIT HOLDERS OF QUANT MUTUAL FUND

These proposed changes shall be carried out by implementing changes in the fundamental attributes and other changes in Schemes.

As a part of the categorization and rationalization of scheme process, all the below mentioned proposed changes to the Schemes will come into effect on and from the close of business hours on October 20, 2018 (“Effective Date”).

Trading in Derivatives: Investments for derivative instrument may be done for trading as well as hedging and portfolio balancing. Exposure to derivative instruments will not exceed 20% of the portfolio value (i.e. net assets including cash).

permitted by SEBI. The scheme may take exposure to derivative instruments up to 100% of net assets.

Investment Objective

The investment objective of the Scheme is to generate current income by investing predominantly in well diversified portfolio of Fixed Income Securities with moderate risk levels. This income may be complemented by possible Capital Appreciation.

The primary investment objective of the scheme is to seek to generate capital appreciation & provide long-term growth opportunities by investing in a portfolio of Small Cap companies. There is no assurance that the investment objective of the Scheme will be realized.

Investment Strategy

Subject to Regulations, the asset allocation indicated above may change from time to time keeping in view market condition, market opportunities, applicable regulations, legislative amendments and other political and economic factors. It must be clearly understood that the percentages stated above are only indicative and not absolute and that they can vary substantially depending upon the perception of the Investment Manager, the intention being at all times to seek to protect the interests of the Unitholders. The fund shall seek Unitholders approval, if necessary, and in accordance with the Regulations, if there is any change in the Fundamental Attributes pursuant to change in investment Pattern.

To achieve the investment objective, the scheme will invest primarily in equity and equity linked instruments of Small Cap companies as defined by SEBI. The underlying theme driving the relative allocation will be QMML research’s ability to identify cross asset, cross market inflexion points. This quantitative approach is based on our proprietary VLRT framework, wherein we incorporate the full spectrum of data along deeper aspects related to the three axis of Valuation, Liquidity, and Risk appetite and view it in a dynamic setting – Time, thus, forming the multi-dimensional VLRT framework. The formulation of this macro narrative guides our micro level stock selection. QMML’s predictive analytics toolbox formulates a multidimensional research perspective to various asset classes. Research has shown that optimal entry and exit points into various asset classes can be identified through the identification of bouts of extreme greed and fear in the market. QMML differentiates itself by not only being able to identify bouts of greed and fear, but by its ability to quantify bouts of euphoria and capitulation. This helps guide us in identifying the optimal level of cash/debt allocation in the scheme. QMML may, from time to time, review and modify the Scheme’s investment strategy if such changes are considered to be in the best interests of the unitholders and if market conditions warrant it. Though every endeavor will be made to achieve the objective of the Scheme, the AMC / Sponsors / Trustee do not guarantee that the investment objective of the Scheme will be achieved. No guaranteed returns are being offered under the Scheme.

Note: there will be no other changes in the scheme.

Trading in Derivatives: To optimally manage portfolio risk, the Scheme may use various derivative instruments and hedging products in a manner permitted by SEBI. The scheme may take exposure to derivative instruments up to 100% of net assets.

Investment Objective

The investment objective of the scheme is to provide capital appreciation or income distribution by investing in companies from Leading Sectors, depending upon their growth prospects and sustainability of future earnings growth.

The primary investment objective of the scheme is to seek to generate capital appreciation & provide long-term growth opportunities by investing in a focused portfolio of Large Cap – ‘blue chip’ – companies. There is no assurance that the investment objective of the Scheme will be realized.

Investment Strategy

Subject to Regulations, the asset allocation indicated above may change from time to time keeping in view market condition, market opportunities, applicable regulations, legislative amendments and other political and economic factors. It must be clearly understood that the percentages stated above are only indicative and not absolute and that they can vary substantially depending upon the perception of the Investment Manager, the intention being at all times to seek to protect the interests of the Unitholders. The fund shall seek Unitholders approval, if necessary, and in accordance with the Regulations, if there is any change in the Fundamental Attributes pursuant to change in investment Pattern.

To achieve the investment objective, the scheme will invest primarily in a relatively concentrated portfolio of equity and equity linked instruments of Large Cap – blue chip – companies as defined by SEBI. The underlying theme driving the relative allocation will be QMML research’s ability to identify cross asset, cross market inflexion points. This quantitative approach is based on our proprietary VLRT framework, wherein we incorporate the full spectrum of data along deeper aspects related to the three axis of Valuation, Liquidity, and Risk appetite and view it in a dynamic setting – Time, thus, forming the multi-dimensional VLRT framework. The formulation of this macro narrative guides our micro level stock selection. QMML’s predictive analytics toolbox formulates a multidimensional research perspective to various asset classes. Research has shown that optimal entry and exit points into various asset classes can be identified through the identification of bouts of extreme greed and fear in the market. QMML differentiates itself by not only being able to identify bouts of greed and fear, but by its ability to quantify bouts of euphoria and capitulation. This helps guide us in identifying the optimal level of cash/debt allocation in the scheme. QMML may, from time to time, review and modify the Scheme’s investment strategy if such changes are considered to be in the best interests of the unitholders and if market conditions warrant it. Though every endeavor will be made to achieve the objective of the Scheme, the AMC / Sponsors / Trustee do not guarantee that the investment objective of the Scheme will be achieved. No guaranteed returns are being offered under the Scheme.

Note: there will be no other changes in the scheme.

The primary objective of the scheme is to generate income by investing predominantly in well diversified portfolio of equity stocks providing high dividend yield but at the same time capture long term capital appreciation as and when the opportunity arises.

Investment Strategy

Subject to Regulations, the asset allocation indicated above may change from time to time keeping in view market condition, market opportunities, applicable regulations, legislative amendments and other political and economic factors. It must be clearly understood that the percentages stated above are only indicative and not absolute and that they can vary substantially depending upon the perception of the Investment Manager, the intention being at all times to seek to protect the interests of the Unitholders. The fund shall seek Unitholders approval, if necessary, and in accordance with the Regulations, if there is any change in the Fundamental Attributes pursuant to change in investment Pattern.

To achieve the investment objective, the scheme will primarily invest in equity and equity linked instruments of Large Cap and Mid Cap companies as defined by SEBI. The underlying theme driving the relative allocation will be QMML research’s ability to identify cross asset, cross market inflexion points. This quantitative approach is based on our proprietary VLRT framework, wherein we incorporate the full spectrum of data along deeper aspects related to the three axis of Valuation, Liquidity, and Risk appetite and view it in a dynamic setting – Time, thus, forming the multi-dimensional VLRT framework. The formulation of this macro narrative guides our micro level stock selection. QMML’s predictive analytics toolbox formulates a multidimensional research perspective to various asset classes. Research has shown that optimal entry and exit points into various asset classes can be identified through the identification of bouts of extreme greed and fear in the market. QMML differentiates itself by not only being able to identify bouts of greed and fear, but by its ability to quantify bouts of euphoria and capitulation. This helps guide us in identifying the optimal level of cash/debt allocation in the scheme. QMML may, from time to time, review and modify the Scheme’s investment strategy if such changes are considered to be in the best interests of the unitholders and if market conditions warrant it. Though every endeavor will be made to achieve the objective of the Scheme, the AMC / Sponsors / Trustee do not guarantee that the investment objective of the Scheme will be achieved.
