Dhamma Capital | Long-Term Investing in India's Growth

Creating Generational Wealth

by Investing in the Rise of India

Dhamma Capital is an independent, partner-centric investment firm, that invests in Indian public markets with a private equity mindset. Unconventional in our approach, we think as Business Owners, and seek to stay invested in wonderful businesses for a longer period of time.

We have an absolute return orientation. The firm's long term mission is to compound our Partners' patient capital by 100x over the next three decades, harnessing the powerful economic growth of India.

We Live Our Purpose

Rooted in Buddha’s teachings,

Dhamma is the Pali word for Dharma (धर्म)

that means “Right Way of living" and "Moral

Responsibility”

Dhamma is the Pali word for Dharma (धर्म) that means “moral responsibility" and to "uphold the right way of living”

We believe our Dhamma, our life's responsibility, is to SERVE. As trained capital allocators, we aim to

Steward ethical families, institutions in creating and preserving generational wealth
Partner with valuable, sustainable businesses and help them scale
Donate the majority of our lifetime wealth towards philanthropy and the well-being of our planet.

It's far better to buy a wonderful company at a fair price, than a fair company at a wonderful price. And, when we own portions of outstanding businesses with outstanding managements, our favorite holding period is forever.

Our Story

From The Founder's Desk

My time in New York was a pivotal experience that reshaped me as an investor. Interactions with influential thinkers/CEO's at Columbia such as Charlie Munger, Nick Sleep, Peter Kaufman, Mitch Rales, IGSB, Todd Combs (and many more) left an indelible mark on my investment philosophy. Their insights deepened my appreciation for high-quality businesses & cultures, and for the investment principles practiced by a certain Mr. Buffett. Elegant to observe, but difficult to practice. "Simple, but not easy." At Dhamma Capital, my mission is to implement those purist principles and build a world-class institution that can set another touchstone for long-term, high-quality investing. The journey is long, but purposeful, with our investors at the heart of every decision we make.
