Raghu is always very diligent, complete in both scope and analysis, and a pleasure to deal with. Partnering with Raghu through Orient Capital was certainly beneficial to Emeco.

I worked with Raghu at IBISWorld. He was a more senior analyst than myself at the time and was always willing to provide advice and guidance. His analysis was always insightful and he had a great professional and approachable manner. He made a pretty big contribution to the company in addition to the usual workload; he coordinated media engagements and did some digital marketing/promotion for the company. A textile/fashion industry publication (Rag Trader) used to regularly seek him out for his commentary on the industry.
