'My body is almost...': Zerodha's Nithin Kamath updates on his health after stroke

Founder and CEO of Zerodha, Nithin Kamath, on Sunday gave an update on his health after 14 months of suffering from a stroke, saying his body is now back to normal.

"So, yeah, fourteen months after the stroke, my body is almost back to normal, and my mind is at about 85%. My writing hasn’t improved at all. Maybe because I don’t practice enough. My speech is, well… about 85%," said Kamath in a post on X.

Previously in 2024, Kamath had said that the death of his father, poor sleep, exhaustion, dehydration, and overworking out could be possible reasons behind the mild stroke.

Additionally, Zerodha co-founder Nithin Kamath believes the recent launch of weight loss-drugs, Mounjaro, could trigger massive economic shifts. “People will eat less, smoke less, buy less, and live longer. They’ll also trade less? Insurance premiums have to change, and annuity payouts in pensions will have to be readjusted,” he wrote, noting the far-reaching consequences of widespread adoption.
