India's PE landscape has only improved. India couldn't be in a better place to attract funding. It's the fastest growing major economy for PE and VC Investing.
Referring to @Lakshmi1876's slides on India's macroeconomic strength in her session at #MAW - Amit adds that the demographic dividend in India is very strong, and is very attractive from a global investor community point of view.
Much awaited session at Kolkata by Utpal Seth, Rare Enterprises, on "Dimensions of Mistakes in Investing", to be moderated by Varun Goenka. #MAW
Utpal Sheth starts with a tribute to Rakesh Jhunjhunwala
Utpal Sheth lays out the context for today's session - Mistakes are rarely discussed!
Outcomes don't define mistakes. They are known through a process of deep introspection & multiple iterations. The opportunity cost of not embracing mistakes is very high.
We start with our first session of the day with @Iamsamirarora, to be moderated by @safiranand. He will be speaking on "How to develop and construct an investment philosophy" #MAW
Samir begins his session by establishing the case for Equities, and within that, Indian Equities. He adds: for the past 25 years (1997-2022), Indian equity markets index has given higher return than investing in shares of Berkshire Hathway (US$ terms)
What path should you follow? Samir juxtaposes books that speak on either side - read and choose what makes sense for you!
