The difference between the NAV of Direct plans and Regular plans is the cost of professional services, typically ranging from 0.5% to 0.75%. This commission compensates the advisor, the service manager, and the software that supports your investments. While some fintech platforms offer free services with zero revenue, we believe that for a long-term relationship to thrive, both the advisor and the investor must benefit. Our approach involves thoroughly evaluating your risk profile and financial needs to identify the mutual funds that best meet your requirements. With constantly evolving markets, we monitor market conditions and regularly review client portfolios to ensure capital preservation.
