I respect your view but I don’t think providing Security guards, cameras, and any other kind of basic security has anything to do with political power or connection.

The last few months have been fun. I have massively consolidated my holdings, and the top 5 positions are now 60% of the present India portfolio. The entire India postfolio is 2x of what it was at the start of this FY, thanks mainly to sharp rises in these core positions. While the markets have been kind, and I have been massively in luck, I have also understood my style better in the recent past – I guess this is the natural evolution for myself as an investor.

From the last update here, there have been a lot of major exits like Krsnaa (probably a mistake), Globus (break in thesis), Strides (better risk-reward elsewhere after the rise), CSB (Preferred other stocks in the sector), Valiant (better understanding of the business), Aurum (found a better play on the sector).

Some good quick trades over a few months like Spandana, Shyam, Ducol. I’m sure I’m missing a few.

I’ve been updating the portfolio on Twitter (X) a lot more frequently. As much as I’d want to, I’ve been short on time to put out detail updates. Will be more frequent going forward. Putting down the present India portfolio and allocations here. Not included KWEB and ARK which I continue to hold.

1. They mention this on the website: All our rate intelligence products get data from public sources and websites accessed by travellers to make sure that there is no difference with the price you see v/s the price your traveller takes a decision on.

2. As I mentioned, there are no real direct competitors of the company that I could find

1. Go Air is not closed yet (as far as I know).
2. Coffee and Tea Estate were sold but the one of the reason for that was Go Airline, unless its gone or atleast BBTC stops investing in it, we cant be sure.
3. Holding structure is still complicated. BBTC owns a foreign subsidary which owns another foreign subsidary which eventually owns Britannia. I dont really understand how promoters stand to gain from this structure, but I def know its not to the advaqntage of minority shareholders.
