S Naren, ED & CIO, ICICI Prudential AMC, said, “When ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund launched its Value Discovery Fund in 2004, there were doubts about whether value investing could thrive in a growth market like India. However, our conviction was rooted in the belief that value investing, which had proven successful in other growth economies like the USA, would find its place here as well.”

He added that over the past two decades, the performance of ICICI Prudential Value Discovery Fund has demonstrated that value investing can indeed work in a growth market like India. While there have been phases of underperformance—such as between May 2006 to February 2009, and again from 2016 to 2018—the long-term results underscore the enduring strength of value investing. “We remain confident that, despite these intermittent phases, the long-term prospects of value investing are strong,” Naren said.
