It Won’t Be ‘Small’ for Long Will You Be Too Late?
Posted On Monday, Jul 28, 2025
Did you know today’s small-cap threshold of ₹30,000 crs is where HDFC Bank stood back in 2006? Fast forward to 2025, and it now towers at over ₹11 lakh crs - a symbol of India’s financial strength.
This isn’t a one-off story.
India’s 251st listed company now holds a market cap of ~₹30,000 crs – a far cry from what was considered "large" not too long ago.
Clearly, small is no longer just small—it’s where tomorrow’s leaders emerge.
And this trend is accelerating.

And they aren’t just growing in size—they’re growing in profitability as well.
The message is clear: India’s next wave of wealth creators is emerging from the small cap space.
Opportunities Galore—But Quality and Valuation Matter More Than Ever
India’s small cap segment is brimming with potential, but amid this opportunity-rich environment, it’s critical not to lose sight of valuation discipline and governance quality.
Valuations have expanded across the board, and not all growth stories are backed by fundamentals or are priced to perfection leaving little to no visible upside for investors. Chasing momentum without evaluating the price you’re paying can erode long-term returns.
Promoter intent and governance standards are equally vital. A fast-growing company with poor transparency or misaligned incentives can quickly turn from promising to problematic.
That’s Why a Disciplined Approach Wins
At Quantum Small Cap Fund, we don’t just look for growth—we look for:
The Bottom Line
In a space where exuberance can often mask excesses, a measured, fundamentals-driven, and governance-aware approach is your best ally.
The next set of small cap stocks are already out there—emerging, building, scaling.
Don’t miss out on the early innings.
