Billionaire investor and trader Rakesh Jhunjhunwala believes that India will no longer see the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an interview with CNBC-TV18, he said, “ I for sure will bet my money that there is going to be no third wave (of COVID-19 pandemic).” He further said that the market need not worry about the slowdown due to the third wave. Jhunjhunwala explained, “No one predicted the two waves and now, everyone is ready to predict the third wave. The pace at which vaccination is going and at the rate at which we are getting herd immunity, I see no reason that there should be a third wave.” India’s cumulative vaccination coverage has gone across 28 crores on June 20, 2021. In total,  28,00,36,898 vaccine doses have been done through 38,24,408 sessions, according to the provisional report till 7 am of June 21.
