Investment Philosophy - Dolly Khanna

She is a Chennai-based homemaker and the real face behind all the brilliant investing is her husband Rajiv Khanna. He is the real investing wiz who is creating wave in the Indian bourses. Rajiv Khanna was a brilliant student and qualified as a chemical engineer from IIT Madras. After being employed as a research person by a pharmaceutical company, Khanna was bitten by entrepreneurial bug in 1986 and started a company called “Kwality Milk Foods”. The Khannas sold Kwality Milk Foods business to Hindustan Unilever in 1995. Now with adequate funds to back them up, the husband-wife duo started picking out stocks for investing. But they tasted first success after 10 long years when one of their stocks “Hawkins Cooker”, turned out to be a multi-bagger.

One thing is quite evident from the husband-wife duo: stock selection! They select small and mid-cap companies which have potential to grow big. Hence, their philosophy is identifying good companies at a very early stage and hold it for a long time. Identifying quality business at a very initial stage and patience is key for them.
