My sole goal is to compound your capital at a rate of return that is significantly better than the broader Indian market. The strategy that I use to achieve this goal is to make focused investments in high-quality businesses, with durable competitive advantages that are conservatively capitalized and trading at reasonable valuation levels. I’m looking for businesses that are compounding machines.

 

I also believe in transparency in terms of my investment strategy. Although I employ quantitative tools for my initial screening process, all investment decisions are based on fundamental analysis and developing a comprehensive understanding of the unique competitive advantages of each company in the portfolio. I believe that by clearly explaining my strategy to my investors, it holds me accountable to them and provides them with the confidence to remain invested even through bouts of underperformance, however, infrequent they may be.

 

In addition, my investment strategy focuses solely on publicly traded securities. As an investor you’ll have the comfort of knowing that the fund is open-ended, after an initial lock-up period. We don’t invest in esoteric investments or private companies. Even in the case of a severe market dislocation you will still be able to exit the fund, if you choose to do so.

 

After years of experience, I’ve formed the opinion that investment decisions are best made by an individual and not by a committee. I spend the majority of my time on research and analysis as opposed to marketing. My goals is not to accumulate assets, rather I’m solely focused on building a wonderful track record over the course of decades and in the process truly making a difference in the lives of individual investors and the missions of family offices and endowments.
