Awriga Capital Advisors

Testing limits and pushing boundaries comes easily to Jinal, proof of which lies in his deep love for scuba diving, something he carves time out for every year. The rest of the time is spent in pursuing and testing limits on financial markets, something he also has deep experience in. Armed with a Masters Degree in Finance from Boston, USA, Jinal has spent the last 20 years in equity markets covering global and Indian companies; 8 of which were at Multi-Act Equity where he headed the Portfolio Management Services business. During his valued tenure, the assets under his management showed impressive growth from ~10cr. to ~800cr. Jinal's positive and passionate temperament, contrarian approach to the market, and rich experience with a plethora of HNI clients, is not just the key to his success, but also the building blocks of Awriga Capital.

A Chartered Accountant and CFA Charter holder from CFA Institute, USA, Gokul was the youngest ever partner at a ~$1billion Hong Kong based Long only fund. Over this period he worked extensively across Asian equity markets, spanning Hong Kong, Indonesia and India. What he learnt at his long tenure, most recently as the head of their India operations, was a strong domain knowledge of all these sectors. Not only was he required to understand different geographies and their culture, but also to build successful teams. He is known for his conservative and principled approach to investing, but his modus operandi is usually to under promise but over deliver. In his free time he can be found pouring over Annual Reports or learning about new and dynamic businesses.
