"Used To Make Those Calls And Now...": Zerodha Boss On Spam Calls

Karma has a way of biting back, said Zerodha co-founder and CEO Nithin Kamath. Mr Kamath, who once worked at a call centre, said this while talking about dealing with “unsolicited calls” by telemarketing companies. He said his phone has now become “unusable”.

“My phone has become unusable due to telemarketing and is always silent,” he said in a post on X.

“Guess what goes around comes around. I spent four years at a call centre, making unsolicited calls to people in the US. I guess Karma has a way of biting back,” he added.

The Zerodha co-founder in February reported suffering a stroke.

"Around six weeks ago, I had a mild stroke out of the blue. Dad passing away, poor sleep, exhaustion, dehydration, and overworking - any of these could be possible reasons," he posted on X, adding that it will take “three to six months for full recovery”.

The 44-year-old entrepreneur said that the stroke left him a “big droop in the face and unable to read or write... and absent-minded”.

Last week, he made his first public appearance, at the Zero1 fest where he discussed health and wealth.

"Slowly getting back to normal. At the Zero1 fest, talking about health and wealth with @nasdaily, JC @FITTRwithsquats, and @twitellectual," the 44-year-old entrepreneur wrote in a post on X.
