‘Never ever chase any investment’: Why Kotak AMC MD Nilesh Shah warned investors against ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ bets | Stock Market News

Nilesh Shah, MD of Kotak Asset Management, warned investors not to chase any investment just because sellers call it a once-in-a-lifetime chance. Missing one deal is not a permanent loss, he said, because new opportunities keep coming. He added that some listed firms now build startup-style units, blurring the line with startups. Stay patient and pick only what suits you.
