This thesis is visible in the outsized returns over the last one year (during which there were 2 lock-downs) generated by these large private players with high market shares in their respective business segments (equity returns mentioned below exclude dividends):

Bajaj Finance – 95%
L&T – 79%
Asian Paints – 74%
Pidilite Industries – 71%
Titan Industries – 63%

As per Varun Manmohan Kapur Now market share is sticky, owing to the number of intermediaries involved and the ‘trust’ factor, once created gets difficult to displace in the short term. So large caps with large market shares in their segment’s pre-pandemic are expected to yield the benefits of such enhanced market share over the medium term. Certainty of cash flows, vendor payments, debt servicing, employee retention will all play to their benefit. These outsized market shares owing to the pandemic can throw off conventional valuation matrices like P/E, EV/EBITDA as ‘growth’ (despite their already large base) is expected to be high and disproportionate to levels of economic recovery over the medium term.

Currently CEO and founder of Engineer.ai, he has also previously founded companies such as Nivio and Shoto. Q.What was the most valuable piece of career advice that you received? A. Just recently, I learned about the realities of rapidly scaling a company. When you go from 10 people to 200 people, you go from having an answer, to having the process to have the answer, to having the people that know the process to having an answer. Now, when you go through that double quick, you have zero time to acclimatise to that shift and that's challenging. Because when you, as the co-founder, know it so well that the process and the answer is all in one split second, it gets frustrating why problems don't get solved in bigger teams as quickly.
