The Indian mutual fund industry has assets of almost INR 7.93 trillion (US$106.3bn) across Multi cap, Large Cap, Large and Mid Cap, Mid Cap, Small Cap and Flexi Cap equity schemes. Equity schemes classified as large cap need to have at least 80% of their assets invested in large cap stocks, large and mid cap schemes need to have at least 35% of their assets in large cap stocks and at least 35% in mid cap stocks, mid cap funds need to hold at least 65% of their assets in mid cap stocks, and small cap funds need to hold at least 65% of their assets in small cap stocks. Flexi cap funds can invest across market caps.The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) publishes the list of the stocks in each market cap segment in January and July each year and mutual funds have one month to rebalance their portfolios to adhere to the new categorization.We are just past halfway through the review period for the second half of 2021. Using data to the close on 4 October, at the next recategorization in January 2022, we see 10 stocks moving from the mid cap segment to the large cap segment, 11 stocks moving from the large cap segment to the mid cap segment , 11 stocks are expected to move from the small cap segment to the mid cap segment, with16 stocks moving from the mid cap to the small cap segment. <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/zomato-media-pvt" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:28820:1" rel="noopener">Zomato (ZOMATO IN)</a> will be a part of the large cap universe, while 4 other newly listed stocks will be a part of the mid cap universe.Historically, stocks moving to a higher market cap category have outperformed stocks that migrate to a lower market cap category over the back half of the review period. In some cases, the outperformance continues past the announcement of the changes as well. This can be attributed to fund managers realigning their portfolios to meet the new categorization. This provides opportunities to pre-position for the move and unwind post the announcement of the reclassification.

A "Buyback" is where (for our purposes) a publicly-listed company repurchases its shares from existing shareholders, sometimes in the market, sometimes in a structured buyback off exchange, and sometimes at a price higher than market price (in this insight, we will use the nouns "Buy-back" and "Buyback" interchangeably; the official regulatory documents in India often use the form with the hyphen).When companies use excess cash to buy back shares, they often not only end up optimising their capital structure but also "achieve" EPS accretion with the aid of a reduction in the total share count of the company. Some companies use buy-backs to support their share prices during sluggish periods and others attempt to use it as a defence mechanism against hostile takeover situations.  Still others in India use it to return capital to their promoters.All that is pretty well-known.In India, such Buy-backs are governed by the <a href="https://www.sebi.gov.in/legal/regulations/jul-2019/securities-and-exchange-board-of-india-buy-back-of-securities-regulations-2018-last-amended-on-april-17-2020-_40327.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SEBI (BUY-BACK OF SECURITIES) REGULATIONS, 2018</a> (last amended on 17th April 2020) and are principally executed through three main mechanisms - Tender Offers, On-Market Transactions, and Book-building Processes. This insight is the first of a two-part series by Quiddity on Indian Buy-backs.In this insight, we will look into the regulations that govern each of the buy-back mechanisms to discover the basis for how they get executed.
