Risk share = weight × marginal contribution ÷ portfolio volatility (Euler decomposition; shares sum to 100%). Red when a name's risk share exceeds its weight share by 30%+: it is adding more risk than capital.

Green = move together, red = move apart. Pairs above .70 are effectively one bet; a book of low pairwise correlations is what makes the diversification ratio above 1.

NoteRead with the published risk table. The factsheet's 3-year statistics (Portfolio → Risk) are computed on client NAVs and are the official numbers; this page is a reference-price approximation whose value is the decomposition by name and sector, not the headline figure. Macro sensitivities give the same names' betas to rates, oil and the rupee.
