Pleasure listening Mohandas Pai Sir at (AIMA)

It was an absolute pleasure listening to Mohandas Pai Sir at the All India Management Association (AIMA) YLC Summit organized by Young Leaders Council AIMA .

In a world full of noise, half-baked opinions, and constant distractions, his address on India and its future stood out for one simple reason — depth backed by data.

Honestly, the quantity and quality of insights he shared were so rich that even ChatGPT would struggle to match it.
The room was charged.
Goosebumps everywhere.
Youth, leaders, and professionals alike walked out energised, proud, and hopeful.

A true patron of Brand India.
A genuine ambassador of Brand Bharat 🇮🇳

For those who may not know the full scale of his contribution:
Mohandas Pai Sir is a Padma Shri awardee, former CFO and Board Member at Infosys, and a rare leader who has shaped India across technology, governance, policy, and social impact.

He is also the co-founder of The Akshaya Patra Foundation, the world’s largest school meal program, touching millions of young lives every single day.
His public service record is equally formidable — having served on the Boards of SEBI, the National Stock Exchange, Manipal Group, several IITs, CAFRAL (RBI), and numerous regulatory and consultative committees, including SEBI’s Primary Markets Committee. He currently serves on the board of Havells.

As an investor, Mohandas Pai Sir has emerged as one of India’s most prolific technology backers — helping launch 14+ funds across venture, growth, and public markets.

Through Aarin Capital, the private equity platform he leads, he continues to invest in life sciences, technology, and education, backing companies that create long-term national value.

What resonated deeply in his talk:
India as the next global hub for tech-driven value creation
A startup ecosystem already top 3 globally, with a bold forecast of 250 unicorns

India owning its digital public infrastructure as a solution for the world
The need for policy reforms, deeper R&D investments, judicial efficiency, and easier access to long-term capital

Growth that is inclusive, equitable, and citizen-centric

His conviction was unmistakable:
“We transformed India. We are transforming more of India.
And we will transform the world.”

Listening to leaders like T.V. Mohandas Pai Sir reminds you why this is the most exciting time to be young, ambitious, and building in India.

Truly inspiring.
Truly uplifting.
Truly Bharat. 🇮🇳
