Mumbai/New York: Noted investor Parag Parikh, founder of mutual fund house PPFAS, died in a car accident in Omaha in the United States on Sunday. Parikh’s office in Mumbai confirmed his demise, who was in the United States to attend the annual shareholder meeting of Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Corporation.
