CareerEdit

Bhaiya began as a research analyst at Sushilfinance. He then held positions at various organizations, including Stratcap Securities, Principal PNB AMC, and Reliance Capital Asset Management (RCAM).[6] He also worked as a fund manager at Nippon India Mutual Fund.[7]

In 2012, he founded Aequitas Investment Consultancy in Mumbai,[8][9] where he is the managing director and CIO.[10][11] In 2019, the company announced plans to launch a Category-III Alternative Investment Fund (AIF).[12] In 2022, the company topped the charts of Barclay Hedge Emerging Markets, Asia Rankings, based on the Compound Annual Return.[13][14][15][16]

Bhaiya was also a speaker at the PMS AIF World event[17] and invited to participate in a panel discussion at the Indian Business and Professional Council (IBPC) Kuwait event titled 'India – World's next growth engine,' held at Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Kuwait in December 2022.[18]

Bhaiya is a frequent commentator on market trends and investment strategies[19][20] on news channels like Times Now,[21] BT TV,[9] CNBC TV18.[22]

Mirror trading controversyEdit

In 2023, Bhaiya alleged that a broker engaged in mirror trading while executing trades for the fund. Mirror trading involves replicating real-time trades executed by another individual. A complaint was lodged with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), alleging front running. Following the complaint, SEBI initiated an investigation. The accused broker opted for a settlement that included a fee of 45.99 lakh. SEBI's order on July 5 concluded that while front-running wasn't substantiated, the broker's actions violated specific provisions of the Prohibition of Fraudulent and Unfair Trade Practices (PFUTP) Regulations.[23]
