AlfAccurate Advisors Pvt Ltd is a SEBI-registered investment management boutique headquartered in Mumbai, India, founded in 2008 by Rajesh Kothari. The firm offers equity-focused Portfolio Management Services (PMS) and Alternative Investment Funds (AIF) for individual investors and family offices, operating under SEBI registrations for PMS (INP000003419), RIA (INA000015701), and AIF (IN/AIF3/22-23/1226). It runs three PMS strategies - AAA IOP PMS (flagship large/mid-cap), AAA Budding Beasts PMS (mid and small-cap), and AAA Couture PMS (customized) - alongside two Category III AIFs (AAA India Equity Fund and AAA GEMS Fund) and an Investment Advisory service.

The firm's investment engine is its proprietary 3M Stock Selection Framework, which screens for Market Size (large opportunities), Market Share (sector leaders positioned to navigate economic cycles), and Margin of Safety (reasonable valuations), and is credited with a 17-year track record of identifying multi-baggers such as Bajaj Finance, Timken India, and Safari Industries. Decision-making is concentrated in a small senior team led by Kothari (27+ years of experience), supported by Director Govind Agrawal, Head of Operations & Compliance Bhushan Koli, and Head of Sales & Business Development Sandeep Biyani, with collective team experience exceeding 110 years.

Revenue is generated through recurring management fees (and likely performance fees) on PMS and AIF assets under management. Disclosed PMS AUM is approximately ₹3,500 crore, and the firm has no external funding, no parent company, and no wealth management or broking lines that could create conflicts of interest. Distribution is primarily direct-to-consumer through a "Direct Onboarding Route," supported by content marketing via the AAA Insights newsletter, blog, LinkedIn, and earned media such as Economic Times commentary.

His funds have outperformed benchmarks, with the mid- and small-cap PMS delivering over 22% CAGR over three and five years. He argues that capital protection is central to portfolio management.ScanXSymphony to meet institutional investors on June 19 and 23Symphony Limited will hold meetings with HDFC Securities on June 19, 2026, and AlfAccurate Advisors on June 23, 2026, to update institutional investors and analysts on the company's operations and strategy. The management presentation will be available on the company's website, and the company stated that no unpublished price-sensitive information will be shared. The article also includes historical stock return data showing declines of 41.18% over one year and 37.56% over five years.The Times of IndiaWhy India's mid & smallcaps are outrunning Nifty 50 & where to invest now? Rajesh Kothari explains - The Economic TimesIndian mid and smallcap stocks are outperforming the Nifty 50, driven by robust earnings delivery and improved balance sheets, according to Rajesh Kothari, CIO at AlfAccurate Advisors, which manages over ₹3,500 crore in PMS assets. Kothari identifies sectors like Electronic Manufacturing Services, Capital Goods, Auto Ancillaries, Consumer Discretionary, BFSI, and Defence & Aerospace as key investment themes, while cautioning that traditional IT services could face a prolonged 12–24 month correction due to weak global ER&D demand and rich valuations. The expert notes that even in a flat market, over 200 companies delivered earnings growth above 15%, emphasizing bottom-up stock selection over index-level bets.The Times of IndiaETMarkets AIF Talk| 3M framework helps us identify sustainable compounders: Rajesh Kothari - The Economic TimesRajesh Kothari, Founder of ALF Accurate Advisors, discussed his investment philosophy of 'Protect Capital, Create Wealth' in an ETMarkets AIF Talk interview, outlining his proprietary 3M framework (Market Size, Market Share, Margin of Safety) for identifying sustainable compounding opportunities. The approach focuses on quality stocks with market leadership, strong balance sheets, zero or low net debt, and growth at reasonable valuations to deliver consistent long-term returns while managing downside risk. Kothari noted that FY26E earnings growth for his portfolio is significantly higher than Nifty, driven by sectors including auto, chemicals, capital goods, and consumer, with banks expected to add strength in FY27.Business News TodayDaily Voice: RBI likely to retain balanced, slightly cautious tone in April meeting amid global commodity and inflation uncertainty, say ALF Accurate's Rajesh KothariRajesh Kothari, Founder and MD at ALF Accurate Advisors, expects the Reserve Bank of India to keep interest rates unchanged in its April policy meeting, maintaining a cautious stance due to global uncertainties around crude oil prices and geopolitics. He notes that while domestic macros remain relatively strong, elevated crude oil prices sustaining above $100 per barrel could pressure fiscal deficit targets and corporate margins. Despite this, Kothari sees India's macro fundamentals as stronger than previous cycles, with improved valuations and limited downside for long-term investors.
