Rakesh Jhunjhunwala was one of a kind in many ways. Always a cheerleader of India, our economy and markets, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala was a true visionary. An unparalleled optimist and a man of discipline in investments, he always came out a winner be it bull market or bear market!

For Geojit, he was a source of inspiration and guidance for me personally too. Since 2004, he was a member of our board for 12 years and continued as our shareholder. It is indeed sad that fate took him away so early. Indian industry and the stock markets will miss his dynamic leadership. It is a huge loss for India and Rakesh Jhunjhunwala will be greatly missed for me too, it is a void that cannot be filled. CJ George, MD & CEO of Geojit Financial Services

Mumbaikars expressed shock over the passing away of ace investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, often referred to as India's Warren Buffet, with some describing him as an idol for the common investor. Rakesh Jhunjhunwala was an idol of common investors. He started his journey from Rs 5,000 and went on to become a multi-billionaire,said Mandar Karve. Earlier, the investors assumed that the stock market was akin to betting, but he proved them wrong by investing on the basis of thorough study of the market after watching news channels and newspapers,said Karve, a small-time investor. Jhunjhunwala was an excellent example for the common man, who invests some of his hard-earned money in the share market, he said. Ravindra Bhange, a photographer, said he watched Jhunjhunwala's tips while investing in particular shares. Iwas eager to know if he had invested in those shares,Bhange said. Jhunjhunwala actually taught small investors where to invest their money and how to keep it growing,said Bhange. His choice of picking up shares helped me to increase my investment,he added.- PTI
