In this episode, Sharan sits down with Aditya Khemka, Chief Investment Officer of InCred Asset Management, whose funds have delivered nearly 50% CAGR in recent years. The conversation opens with how Khemka allocates his own capital across healthcare equities, gold, real assets, and liquidity and why uncertainty, inflation, and geopolitics make disciplined asset allocation essential today.
The discussion then deep-dives into India’s healthcare sector, which Khemka believes has a multi-decade growth runway. He explains why hospitals, diagnostics, and pharma manufacturing are structurally underpenetrated, how valuation gaps persist despite strong fundamentals, and why India-focused healthcare businesses have quietly outperformed the broader market by a wide margin over the last decade.
The episode closes with a broader macro view covering inflation cycles, currency debasement, gold’s role in long-term portfolios, and why Khemka concentrates heavily on secular businesses like healthcare while avoiding overseas equity exposure. A masterclass in combining macro thinking with bottom-up stock selection.

  1. These are imaginary narratives because the future is uncertain and all financial maths may go hay way when things go wrong and a person's perspective changes eg People are hesitant to go for a knee replacement operation by paying lacs of rupees in a hospital but rather the trend is to go to a chiropractor doctor and get OA cured Another eg is United group of companies had started diagnostic CT scanning centres in India but now they are all gone. Many downtrodden PLCs are now using CGHS dispensaries/Polyclinics to get their staff treated there and so on…..
    The standards of Pvt hospitals/healthcare sector is deteriorating to govt hospitals ….. Pharma industries is a highly polluting sector so the USA EU other developed countries shifted such an industry to China, India, Brazil , developing countries to safeguard their air/water……😟

  2. So this podcast concludes the reality of capitalism, a simple solution to steal entire life savings with one shot.

    I don't think that the common man needs to run behind money but a lifestyle that doesn't need these big companies garbage everyday.

    Because it's 100 percent clear where this rat race is taking humanity.

  3. I really enjoyed this episode. A lot of information and Sharan sir as you asked for, are any better suggestions for the interview while you ask questions and the other person explains it then please ask them how they know these thing how he knows so much about each company he mentioned so that we understand who to inquire about different business model or company (knowledge helps to invest better) 👍🫶🏻 love the episode ❤

  4. Thank you for the insightful podcast—I truly enjoyed it. I'm grateful to you, Sharan, for arranging it, and extend my sincere thanks to Aditya Sir for the enlightening perspective on sector-based stock selection. This has opened up a fresh approach I hadn't considered before.

  5. I think this sector is something that the government likes to tinker with and poke their nose into….so there is always a regulatory risk…..

    This is also highly susceptible to R&D risk – for example indian government also allows random companies to copy a formulation that's patented outside, make it dirt cheap here and flood the market with their produce….

    Indians self medicate, whatsapp/Google/chatgpt medicate or kitchen medicate and go to a doctor if and only if they or people around them are absolutely convinced that the patient might die otherwise…..
