Ashutosh Garud, CFA

Co- Founder

Ashutosh Garud, CFA, is the Co-Founder of AlphaOptimus Portfolio Management LLP, bringing over two decades of experience in the Indian equity markets and extensive expertise in fund management.

A CFA® charterholder who holds a Post Graduate Diploma in Finance, Ashutosh has developed an investment approach specifically tailored to capitalize on India’s structural economic growth. He focuses on identifying high-quality businesses with sustainable growth potential, combining rigorous business selection with a disciplined portfolio construction framework to achieve long-term wealth creation.


While investors are often influenced by the pursuit of returns, Ashutosh believes successful investing comes down to mastering the only two things they can actually control: the principal invested and the time horizon it remains invested. He views true wealth creation as a function of giving quality investments sufficient time to benefit from the uninterrupted power of compounding.

At AlphaOptimus Portfolio Management LLP, his objective is to build a credible and trustworthy investment platform where investors can allocate capital with confidence. For Ashutosh, long-term compounding is driven not only by investment intellect, but also by the trust, transparency, and credibility of the investment product.

Outside of analyzing businesses and equity markets, Ashutosh is an avid reader, movie enthusiast, and music lover. He is also passionate about sports and enjoys both playing and watching them. He finds that the discipline, strategy, and teamwork required in sports often mirror the patience and long-term perspective essential in investing.
