Profile
Spent about five years working in various family businesses before becoming an investor. Started with secondary market equities and graduated into private equity. Being a part of one of the oldest business families in India, our approach to investing is more in the Berkshire Hathaway mould, wherein we tend to hold our investments permanently, with rare exceptions. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to understand both, the business side of things and the investors side. This combined knowledge helps in becoming a better businessman and a better investor. I have also been involved with a Gurgaon-based NGO ,which has been running schools for the underprivileged since 1995.
