Sunil Singhania (Abakkus) Portfolio Performance in retrospect
How did the portfolio perform as of the end of December 2021 quarter compared to different time frames in the past. His portfolio currently stands at Rs.2,236 crore but the portfolio reporting only began over the last 3 years. Since the portfolio has also been a subject of fund inflows, we only look at returns over the last one year.
Between Dec-20 and Dec-21, the portfolio value has gone up from Rs.1.038 crore to Rs.2,236 crore. That translates into annualized portfolio appreciation of 115%. That is still much lower compared to the one year returns in the Sep-21 close, but that is understandable considering the sharp fall in the markets amidst volatile conditions.
