SMART Framework Ch. 2 – Strong Business

The Business Evaluation Framework that we use at Bastion Research


Welcome to this week’s edition of LEARNING OF THE WEEK! Firstly, wishing you a joyous Dussehra filled with happiness, prosperity, and the triumph of good over evil. May this festive season bring you and your loved ones peace and success!

Today we’re excited to kick off our journey into the SMART framework (If you are still unaware, understand the SMART Framework here) by exploring its First Pillar: STRONG BUSINESS. In today’s video, we’ll uncover the key characteristics that define a robust business, drawing inspiration from some of India’s most exemplary companies.

Why focus on strong businesses?

Because understanding what makes a business resilient and successful is crucial for anyone looking to invest wisely. While many global investors emphasize the importance of strong businesses, we often overlook the practical examples right here in India that have achieved greatness.

In our video, we’ll spotlight Indian companies that have not only thrived but have set benchmarks in their industries. We’ll dissect what makes these businesses excel—be it innovative strategies, unwavering leadership, or a commitment to quality—and how they continue to march forward.

Chapter 2: What is a Strong Business?

The SMART Framework is a robust business evaluation tool that we at Bastion Research use to assess a company or stock from an investment perspective. Today we uncover the first key pillar i.e. STRONG BUSINESS and understand the same with multiple Indian examples.
