About Me
Parth Somani is a computer science engineer from IIIT Nagpur who pivoted early into investment research, combining an engineering analytical foundation with four years of active public market investing.
He is currently pursuing opportunities in investment research, focused on identifying moats in India's emerging manufacturing and deep-tech sectors.
At a polymer manufacturing startup, he earned his way into the treasury function by demonstrating early stock picks that outperformed. He then managed a capital allocation mandate, researching companies at sector inflection points and generating a 30% XIRR return over three months.
As an independent investor, he has built end-to-end investment theses on companies including BlackBuck and Saregama, using a structured process spanning community sentiment, financial modeling, DCF valuation, and technical entry timing. His BlackBuck position returned approximately 50%.
He holds CFA Level 1 and the ISM Research Analyst certification.
