Investment Philosophy
Our foundational beliefs.
Our Approach
Prudence
We do the deep work — thorough research and thoughtful judgment — before making any investment decision.
Patience
We have the conviction to stay the course, knowing our research is solid and the business is built to do well over time.
Probability
We think in probabilities, not certainties — and diversify across great companies to manage risk.
What We Look For
Clear Right to Win
We look for companies with a defensible moat and a strong competitive edge in their market.
Proven Product-Market Fit
Beyond early traction, we seek evidence of lasting customer need and repeatable success.
Long-Term Growth Drivers
We favor businesses with structural tailwinds and clear pathways to scale over time.
Investment Process
We think like businessmen, not just investors.
Our experience in building and running businesses shapes how we assess everything: product-market fit, business strategy, competitive dynamics, industry structure, mangement quality and financials. We don't just look at spreadsheets; we look at the whole picture.
We’ve built and keep evolving a process IP. We believe disciplined execution is half the battle.

"What sets Pkeday apart is the unique blend of freedom and mentorship. It’s where I grew as a professional and developed the entrepreneurial mindset to approach challenges like a business leader."
- Kushagra, Former Intern
Technology, with Purpose
Technology is how we think better, not just work faster.
We Build Our Own Tools.
We’re building a future where our tech shapes how we invest. From ideation to evaluation to portfolio tracking - these tools will increase our efficiency throughout and encode our process into a scalable system.For us, it’s not about having more data — it’s about having the right data, at the right time, with the right nuance.
Examples of our custom stack:
For Investments:
The VantEdge, YouTube summarizer (YT2Go), Brokerage report aggregators, Insider trading alerts, Daily news alerts.
For Firm Building:
Automated recruitment flow, internal MIS / portfolio tracker.
We're a startup that happens to invest.
We want today’s team members to become tomorrow’s fund managers. We encourage calculated risk-taking, boldness, speed, and hands-on firm building. This is a place for owners, not employees.
Meet the Founders
The minds and hearts behind Pkeday Investment Office.
Pramod Kabra
Co-Founder
Pramod is the Wise Old Wizard of our little fellowship. He isn’t going to like the ‘old’ in that statement, but that’s what he gets for not writing his own bio.With 23 years at Hindustan Unilever, including as Head of Treasury for Asia & Africa, and 16 years as General Partner at True North, he brings decades of experience and sharp judgment. He also serves on the boards of Aditya Birla Real Estate, Shree Digvijay Cement, and ACT Fibrenet.
Parikshit Kabra
Co-Founder
Parikshit (or PK) is a restless tinkerer, known to over-engineer small things no one asked to improve — mostly just to see if it breaks. An alumnus of UCL and IIM Ahmedabad, with stints at Bain, Zolo Stays, and his own startup, he brings a mix of consulting polish and startup chaos, powered by an endless appetite for new ideas (and questionable side projects).
