Ramesh Damani is “extraordinarily bullish” on the DPI theme

Ramesh Damani says he is “extraordinarily bullish” on the DPI theme. India has become a digital country & built world-class digital infra (PAN, KYC, ONDC etc). “It is a long-term story. Market caps do not reflect the opportunity”. He holds 1% of Protean e-Gov worth ₹82 Cr

One theme that I have been extraordinarily bullish upon is this what we call digital public infrastructure theme. India has become a digital country. We have almost leapfrogged the generation of bad, poor infrastructure by building a world-class digital infrastructure. A lot of companies are now participating in this, whether it is tax identification services, PAN services, ONDC services, or many of those phases. Then, there are maybe half a dozen companies that benefit from this infrastructure play out. So, I would first suggest that investors look at this not necessarily from a six-month or one-year or two-year horizon, but from a five-ten-year horizon. It is a long-term story and the market caps do not reflect the opportunity that we see in digital public infrastructure,” Ramesh Damani said.

Ramesh Damani holds in his portfolio 4,22,069 shares of Protean eGov Technologies Ltd worth ₹82 Crore. Protean eGov Technologies Ltd is engaged in Digital Public Infrastructure activities.
