It’s official!! We got SEBI-registered as a RIA (Registered Investment Advisor) last year, the holy grail license to give financial advice allowing us to currently manage ₹750 Crore+ in assets under Advisory.
The SEBI chairman recently stated that India needs 1 million RIAs to bridge the financial gap. Currently we have only 1,300. That’s like 1 for every 10 lakh people in India. Imagine having only one doctor per 10 lakh people! Scary right?
This significant gap shows the urgent need for more qualified financial advisors to serve our diverse population. To have only 1,300 doctors in India would be a national crisis and yet when it comes to financial advice which directly impacts the hard earned money saved by people, their investments and future, we are completely unprepared.
I started this journey 4 years back by first creating content on financial planning. Two years later I started teaching financial planning through live sessions and taught over 5 lakh students. Now it’s time to finally walk the talk and actually manage public’s money with a team of 45+ people.
To all my 70 lakh followers across social media, I’m deeply grateful for the unwavering support. Without this community’s trust I wouldn’t be able to write this post today.
Thank you for being an integral part of this journey as I keep exploring new possibilities for our country.

Sad toxic story ahead ⬇️
When I was 10 years old, I had enrolled for an elocution competition - basically I had to recite a speech in front of hundreds of people with confidence. My mom spent months preparing me for this event and after hundreds of practice sessions, I finally went for the D day.
Guess what?
I went up the stage, got stage fright and didn’t speak a single word. My mom expecting me to get 1st place came to pick me up in her car with a bag full of chocolates in the car. My 12 year old sister was the first to complain to my mom about how I shat the bed. My mom gave half the chocolates to my sister and the remaining to my house help’s kids. This day scarred me for life. Since then I went on winning almost every single competition I took a part in.
- 1st in drawing competitions both in school and inter-school level until 5th grade
- 1st in Quiz competitions
- 1st place in Table Tennis bot in school and inter school all the way till 10th grade
- 1st place in 4x100 relay competition
- I was in the top 1% of academics in every semester in every year until 10 the grade.
We could argue that what my mom did was toxic parenting but the world doesn’t really value participation certificate. We only remember the gold medals. The silver medals earn 1/100th of the gold medal winners make coz being first at something is not just marginally better than 2nd. It is several levels above 2nd coz of the sheer amount of hard work, sacrifice, mental agility and endurance that it takes consistently for years if not decades.
I still carry that drive with me even today. If I chill and relax now thinking that I’ve made it in life then I’ll end up becoming the sleeping rabbit while the hard working new blood tortoises surpass me.
Last month we won 3 awards!
