Dr. Ankit Shah
Dr. Ankit Shah is an Indian author, geopolitical commentator and originator of the Sanātana Economics framework — an attempt to recover an indigenous Indic vocabulary for thinking about wealth, statecraft and civilisational continuity. He is published by Garuda Prakashan and runs a widely-followed YouTube channel on geopolitics and global affairs.
He is known among his audience for early, dated geopolitical projections on a series of high-profile events — including Doklam, Balakot, the LAC standoff, the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A, the Russia–Ukraine conflict, and Operation Sindoor. His public commentary combines hard-power analysis with civilisational and economic-history arguments.
Read the full biography
Trained in management at IIM Ahmedabad, Dr. Shah's public-handle @AnkitAtIIMA on X has become the principal channel through which he posts his projections and analysis. His writing extends across geopolitics, the political economy of post-Cold-War Asia, and the philosophical foundations of Indic economic thought.
The Sanātana Economics model, in particular, is the central framework around which his books and lectures are organised: it argues that the dominant Western economic categories — growth, wealth, sustainability — have indigenous Indic analogues that can produce a richer and more historically grounded understanding of Indian economic life. He is reachable at [email protected].
