What a fantastic initiative by my friend @KalpenParekh at @dspmf
“I want to tell you about something we did last year that we haven't spoken about much.
At every Kumbh in the past, on average 25,000 people get seperated from their families. Most often, they are children. It must be heart-wrenching, to be at the most sacred gathering of your life, reach for your child's hand, and find nothing there.
At the Purna Maha Kumbh in January 2025, we got an opportunity to do something about this. In collaboration with Dentsu Creative & Falco Robotics, we built Garuda Rakshak — Garud-shaped drones that could locate a missing child even where no mobile network could reach, and guide rescuers to them. It wasn’t a campaign. There was nothing to sell. We just felt it was something we wanted to do.
When the first child was found and reunited with their family, everyone involved felt something shift inside them. That's the only way I can describe it.
Then the recognitions came. Garudrakshak won a Cannes Lion and multiple Kyoorious elephants – some of the most prestigious awards in the world for the creation of effective impact. Garud Rakshak was not envisioned for an award. We had done it because countless families had been through something no family should go through, and DSP’s mission is to improve lives.
Last week Garud Rakshak added 6 of Asia Pacific’s highest advertising honours to our other wins. Including the award we are most proud of – The Lotus Root which recognizes work that preserves and celebrates the rich heritage and value of each local culture.
The awards are not the story. The story is a child finding their way back home. That's what we want you to carry.
I often say that we are a fund home, and not a fund house, because of the trust placed in us by investors like you. This trust is what makes it possible for us to be this kind of fund home.
With gratitude,
Kalpen Parekh
CEO, DSP Mutual Fund”

"We don't know what happens next."
Imagine a fund house managing lakhs of crores in AUM putting those six words on the front page of The Economic Times!!
In an industry built on the illusion of "expert predictions," this isn't just an ad - it’s a masterclass in building Radical Transparency.
The Core Message is clear:
Predicting is a distraction: You can’t control oil prices, geopolitics, or the next notification that turns your screen red.
Behavior is the alpha: Investors who lose aren't those who were "less wise," but those who were less calm.
It takes immense courage to admit you don't have a crystal ball. But by doing so, they aren't showing weakness - they are building a bridge of honesty with their investors.
They aren't promising to know the future; they are promising to stay true to the process through the future.
Kudos to the team for choosing truth over a sales pitch. Shout out to the brilliant minds behind this campaign: @dspmf@WitheringLows@KalpenParekh

Very impressed with @dspmf’s documentary.
We talk of long-term investing. Here they speak to folk across the country - in their 80s & 90s - & asked them about longterm in ways other than monetary.
Great script. Great editing. Very authentic.

Narrative driven flows 👀
Index Fund launces at 65x to 70x trailing PE multiple. Collects Rs. 1800Cr.
Index Fund launched at 14x PE and 2.1X PB gets few takers.
It's hilarious what we take pride in these days!
Manchester United are closer to 3rd spot (4 points behind) than Manchester City are to 1st (5 points behind)
Truly splendid 😂
I have started a new series of letters, written to young investors. It's a joint investor education initiative between me and @dspmf.
The first letter is about the philosophy of wealth.

Please share with young investors around you. Thank you!
Stop judging others for their money choices!
Loved this piece by @LarissaFernand and fully agree with the idea of knowing what you want and doing exactly that, blocking out everything else!

Sitting on the sidelines will not help you build your future, just like in investing.

Why are index funds popular?
Lack of alpha is not the only reason
~ Easy to understand, directly comparable with Benchmark risk & returns
So for many new investors, can be a good starting point for equity investments
Low costs, transparency can amplify growth📈

Is she going to choose the guy who's just like her father? Or will she stand up and say what's on her mind? And was that guy really who we thought?
Watch this gripping short film- a reminder of how we need to stop taking things for granted!
Do watch till the end! 🙏
@FI_InvestIndia Thank you for sharing our film! I hope watching our films actually makes a difference in a few homes rather than them just being appreciated for being nicely made videos! 😇🤞
@FI_InvestIndia Thank you for sharing our humble film.
The original film (The Wait) moved us deeply & inspired us to create something heartfelt of our own. Our film does carry elements of that inspiration but our contextualization brings forth our own experiences, meaning & emotions ❤️
This Video literally brought me to tears. Invest in your children with your wisdom, time & guidance. They will not disappoint you.
Credit to DSP Mutual Fund Team & @WitheringLows for making such beautiful videos for us. Worth Sharing.
