His goal is to sell this new venture for $8 billion within five years.He also opened up about his friendship with Ratan Tata, revealing that he lost 3,000 crores on an investment he made just to help his friend. Shockingly, he stated that Mr. Tata was "not a good example" for being selfless and that he "learned nothing from him."Finally, He explained his role in the 2G scam, claiming he was the accidental whistleblower, which led to a 4,000 crore loss and started his financial collapse.

I asked Feroze how he went from earning ₹1.5-2 lakhs monthly as a teacher to taking a 90% pay cut for banking. He did the math: the best teacher earned ₹2.5 lakhs at peak, but the best private banker made ₹4.5 crores—a 400x growth opportunity. That calculation convinced him to take the risk despite everyone's warnings. I asked about his biggest wins and losses. His worst investment was a private equity real estate deal that returned just 4% IRR when properties were multiplying 4-5x elsewhere. His best was a COVID-era structured product delivering 28% IRR, and Anand Rathi shares he bought from panicked sellers during the pandemic—not for profit, but to keep his word to clients.I asked how he identifies winning mutual funds. He revealed his "Holiday NAV" framework—calculating what a fund's NAV would be if the manager was on holiday all year. If the holiday NAV is lower than actual, the manager added real value. For example, Manish Gunwani of Bandhan added 8.6% value in one year through his decisions alone. I asked about his model portfolio, which delivered 4.13% compounded excess returns over Nifty for 11+ years—that's 140% more wealth than just buying Nifty. I asked about Anand Rathi's incredible retention—only 2 people left from 300 senior employees. The secret? No sales contests ever. Instead, they close business on March 25 every year and take the entire team on fully-sponsored foreign holidays with families, regardless of performance.💡 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more such insightful conversations with top achievers from across the world!
