Who am I?

My  story

  • My name is Nathan Ganugapanta.
  • I have been living in US from the year 1999.
  • Software testing has been my bread winner.
  • My investing journey started in the year 2000 with US markets – dot com fever sucked me in and I had no idea what I was doing back then and I was buying solely on tips from friends and TV.
  • Deservingly, I lost money in US stocks during the dot com bubble but learnt some valuable lessons which served me well later in my investing journey.
My India Stock Investment Journey

Indian Stocks

In the year 2003, I discovered the power of compounding which fueled passion for investing in Indian markets and since then have grown capital from 2 lakhs to ~ 210 lakhs at well above 36% CAGR.

I am passionate about and thoroughly enjoy reading and analyzing businesses (thanks to Google). Over the past 15 + years I have read so many articles, annual reports and books that refined and honed my conviction in equities, particularly Indian businesses.

Join my wealth creation Journey

My effort through this website is to help subscribers who are living and working primarily in US/Canada (like me) to benefit from the growth story of India along with me.

Almost all my investments are in India – as they say “put your money where your mouth is”. I am extremely confident that my stock investments will create significant wealth in the coming years. My conviction has only grown stronger over the years from continuous learning. If not all, part of your savings should be put to work in Indian stock markets as India at this juncture presents once in a lifetime opportunity to create wealth.
