Investment philosophy

Dhyana Capital invests in Indian public companies with a long-term business owner mindset. Funds work is focused on finding companies with the best long-term compounding potential and figuring out what makes them special. 

Dhyana Capital values companies based on what they expect to earn if they hold them forever, not trying to predict what others might pay for them a few months or a couple of years down the road. 

Their portfolio is biased towards smaller sized companies, oftentimes companies that are misunderstood or undiscovered at the time they invest. However, they do not impose artificial constraints on themselves relating to size, sector, or liquidity. 

They are not macro investors, and have nothing intelligent to say about the macro, except that they are long in India. They are not averse to market volatility; rather they see it as a friend. They do not seek protection by excess diversification. They do not try to beat the index in the short-term, trying this usually leads to behaviour antithetical to long-term returns. They are not incentivised to scale for the sake of scale.
