My conviction in this Indian private bank is strong, and I hold a sizable position. It’s seen its market cap jump significantly, yet it’s still a fraction of giants like HDFC or ICICI. This signals immense room for growth within India's regulated private banking sector, where it’s actively gaining market share. A major vote of confidence comes from elite PE firm Warburg Pincus, whose substantial investment suggests a belief in its 10x potential, attracting further foreign institutional interest even amidst broader FII outflows. While I expect some volatility, my long-term thesis is macro-driven, looking past short-term ratios or NIMs, with a clear sight on a 5-10x upside over the next decade. I believe this bank is poised for phenomenal long-term value creation.
