Quant Capital

Quant Capital

Quant Capital was established in Mumbai in 2007 and began operating through the 2008 global financial crisis as part of the Quant Group, a diversified financial services platform. The firm publicly structures itself around a research unit called quant Global Research (qGR), which it says has developed a proprietary multi-dimensional analytical framework named VLRT over the past decade. The firm's investment process is rooted in its VLRT framework — a quantitative system that blends technical, fundamental, and sentiment-based data to generate asset-allocation and trade signals. Its public strategy reports, issued between 2014 and 2017, show macro calls spanning Indian equities, G10 and emerging-market currencies, base metals, crude oil, and global fixed income. The firm has published explicit Nifty and Bank Nifty forecasts, DXY and USDINR trading ranges, and directional views on commodities. Operationally, the Quant Group structure includes quant Mutual and Quant Institutional Equities Private Limited, allowing the platform to serve both retail and institutional mandates. The firm's published track record highlights calls made during the 2015–2016 period, including a crude-oil bottom at US$26 and a medium-term bottom in global commodities. The firm operates from a single headquarters in Prabhadevi, Mumbai, and discloses a leadership team of five named directors — Nayan Gogri, Paresh Ghosh, Dilip Halande, Rohan Jadhav, and Santosh Surte — who oversee customer care, compliance, and corporate governance functions. Quant Capital does not disclose total assets under management, team headcount, or deployment figures. In May 2015, quant Mutual filed a final prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Board of India to launch new fund products, expanding the group's regulated asset-management footprint. Quant Capital is unusual for an Indian wealth manager in prioritizing a fully proprietary, systematic research methodology over manager selection or distribution. The firm's public marketing leans on Vedic philosophy — describing fundamentals, liquidity, and sentiment through the metaphors of atman, prana, and maya — to articulate a framework that it claims is embedded across all investment decisions.
