This philosophy is not merely theoretical; it has been the guiding force behind his successful management of investment portfolios through various market cycles.
"In the world of investing, patience and discipline are often rewarded more than chasing the latest trends," Gaurav notes, reflecting his belief in fundamental investing principles.
His career began in 2000 at Adani Wilmar Limited in Ahmedabad, where he took on the role of Executive-Sales & Marketing. This early experience in sales and marketing laid the foundation for his understanding of market dynamics and customer behavior.

These roles allowed him to broaden his expertise in international investment opportunities and offshore banking, further enhancing his ability to offer comprehensive financial solutions.
Upon returning to India, Gaurav continued to build on his experience, taking on key roles in ICICI Bank before moving to Bangalore as an Investment Adviser with IIFL. His approach to investment advice remained unwavering-rooted in the fundamentals of market analysis, risk assessment, and long-term growth.
Today, as a SEBI-registered Investment Adviser, Gaurav Goel’s philosophy of "method in madness" encapsulates his ability to find opportunities in market corrections, viewing them not as crises but as moments ripe for investment.
