There are only about 2 to 5 genuinely good trending days in a month. The rest are noise, chop, and traps. The problem is you do not know which days are which until they are already underway. So the real skill in Option Buying is not catching every move, it is surviving the 20 mediocre days without giving back what you made on the 5 good ones.
Sitting on your hands while everyone around you is trading feels like falling behind. It is not. It is the single most profitable skill no one teaches. Having no positions should also be considered as a good trade.

That priceless moment when my parents saw the home for the first time. No amount of property vs mutual fund excel calculation can beat this ROI.
Buying a home is an emotional decision, am glad that I decided to withdraw my profits and made this purchase.

I decided to withdraw profits to buy a flat. If you check all my old tweets, I would have tweeted always against buying a property. What changed my mind to buy a flat instead of compounding my capital. Let me explain that.

I am honoured to receive the Jamsetji Tata Award from the Indian Society of Quality.
What makes this recognition especially meaningful is the citation that accompanied it:
“For leading one of India’s most admired corporate transformations, embedding Quality-Based Management across CEAT, championing an unwavering customer-first ethos, building trust through transparent leadership, achieving world-first recognitions, and advancing technology, quality, safety and societal contribution — exemplifying the institution-building ideals of Jamsetji Tata.”
I see this not as an individual honour, but as a reflection of the collective commitment of teams across @CEATtyres who live quality every day — in decisions, processes, and mindset.
Grateful to ISQ for this encouragement, and to my colleagues and mentors who make this journey possible.

Last week, we hosted a @ZerodhaVarsity Live session for children. The registrations and participation were excellent, but what truly touched me were these two moments, captured in the pictures I'm sharing (with permission).
An NGO in Pune live-streamed the session for their students (via mobile phone), while a group of enthusiastic kids from Brampur, Odisha, joined together to participate.
Seeing the reach and impact of these sessions, bringing learning opportunities to children across different parts of India, reminds me and the team why we do what we do :)

The Aftermath of a Father Digging a Grave for His 2-Year-Old Daughter:
In 2017, Zhang Liyong, from a rural village in Sichuan, learned that his two-year-old daughter was diagnosed with severe thalassemia. The treatment required a hematopoietic stem cell transplant, with total costs approaching nearly one million yuan RMB. To save their daughter, Zhang Liyong and his wife exhausted all their family savings but still couldn’t afford the subsequent medical expenses.
In despair, the father dug a grave with his own hands for his daughter, saying that if she were to leave this world one day, he hoped she could adapt to death sooner. Zhang Liyong stayed with his daughter, sleeping and playing in that earthen grave.
After the video spread online, it touched the hearts of people across the internet.
Thanks to the power of the internet, Chinese crowdfunding platforms stepped in to help the family, raising the full amount of treatment costs in less than a month. Even more heartening, following the doctor’s advice, the couple had another daughter, and the younger sister successfully saved her older sister using her own cord blood. Later, a compassionate entrepreneur also covered all the recovery expenses for the older sister.
After his eldest daughter was discharged from the hospital, Zhang Liyong filled the grave back with soil and scattered sunflower seeds over it.
Love can traverse the deepest despair, blooming with hope even in the most barren soil!
