Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath’s two-word advice to Gen Z is gaining traction on social media. Sehgal, interviewing him from the perspective of a young professional, also sought his views on money, young people and the job market. Kamath has been giving advice to young professionals, offering unique perspectives to those who plan to start their business. He brought the same streak to NDTV World Summit.
Speaking during a rapid-fire round at the NDTV World Summit 2026, Kamath told NDTV’s Rahesha Sehgal that young people should bring back “questioning” and “curiosity”.
After starting early in the world of business, Nikhil Kamath taught himself how to trade stocks in his free time, which inspired his career in finance. He co-founded Zerodha with his brother Nithin in 2010.
