Book your 30-min portfolio call

Two quick steps. Same-day call back. No obligation.

Your details are used only to contact you about this enquiry. Mutual Fund investments are subject to market risks, read all scheme related documents carefully.

What your 30-minute portfolio review covers

Share your current holdings, on WhatsApp or during the call. Dhaval goes through them with you and tells you plainly what he sees.

  • What you really own. All your funds and folios in one view, including old schemes you may have forgotten.
  • Funds doing the same job. Where several funds hold the same stocks, so you are less diversified than you think.
  • Your equity, debt and hybrid mix, compared with your risk profile and time horizon.
  • Lump sum or SWP next steps, if you have new money to invest or need regular income.
  • Whether we are the right fit. No obligation to invest.

Easiest way to share: your Consolidated Account Statement (CAS) from CAMS or KFintech, or simply a list of your funds.

Too many funds? Check the overlap

Many investors add a new fund every few years. Over time, several of them end up holding the same large companies. You keep track of 10 or more funds, but your money behaves like three or four.

Dhaval checks which funds overlap and talks you through a simpler, focused portfolio suited to your risk profile.

Check my fund overlap

Talk to Dhaval, not an app

Apps make buying funds easy. Knowing what to hold, and staying the course, is easier with one person who knows your portfolio.

Apps and call centres

  • A different person, or a chatbot, each time you ask
  • You work out overlap and asset mix yourself
  • Generic questions instead of a risk profile
  • No one reviews your funds with you

With Dhaval

  • The same person from your first call, investing since 2003
  • Overlap, mix and scattered folios checked for you
  • A documented risk profile every scheme must fit
  • An annual review, a same-day call back, and meetings in Kandivali or online

Common questions

Still unsure? Call Dhaval.

Safety of your money

No. You pay from your own bank account directly to the fund house, and the units are held in your name in your folio with the registrar (CAMS or KFintech). Dhaval never receives or handles your money.

You receive a Consolidated Account Statement (CAS) covering all your mutual funds across fund houses. You can also log in to CAMS, KFintech or the fund house directly at any time.

Yes. Open AMFI's distributor search and type ARN-51527 (or just 51527). It shows Dhaval's name, EUIN and registration validity.

Most open-ended funds can be redeemed on any business day, and the money is credited to your registered bank account within a few working days. ELSS (tax-saving) funds have a 3-year lock-in, and some funds charge an exit load if you redeem early. Dhaval tells you about both before you invest.

Investing ₹50 lakh or more

Yes. We work with investors who have ₹50 lakh or more to invest in mutual funds, as fresh money or an existing portfolio.

Both are common. A lump sum puts all your money to work immediately. A systematic transfer plan (STP) parks it in a debt or liquid fund and moves a fixed amount into equity funds each week or month. Dhaval explains both and helps you choose based on your risk profile and time horizon.

A systematic withdrawal plan (SWP) pays a fixed amount from your mutual fund to your bank account every month, while the rest stays invested. The payout is not guaranteed: how long your corpus lasts depends on market returns and how much you withdraw.

Equity and debt funds are taxed differently, and the rate depends on how long you hold the units. Tax applies only when you redeem or withdraw, not while you stay invested. Dhaval explains the current tax treatment of each option before you invest; for your personal tax position, check with your CA.

Working with Dhaval

No. You can start with fresh money and keep your existing funds where they are. Dhaval looks at your full holdings from your CAS, so that anything you invest through him fits with what you already own.

You don't have to move anything to get a review. If you choose to invest through Dhaval, you get one person who knows your portfolio, a documented risk profile and an annual review. Direct plans bought on apps have no distributor commission; regular plans through Dhaval include it.

As a mutual fund distributor, Dhaval receives commission from fund houses on regular plans. There is no separate fee, and the commission for each scheme is shared with you before you invest.

Yes. Each family member keeps their own folios in their own name, and Dhaval reviews them together so the overall mix makes sense. He also helps you keep nominees and bank details up to date.

Nothing to prepare. If you have it, your Consolidated Account Statement (CAS) from CAMS or KFintech, or a list of your funds, helps Dhaval review your holdings during the call. You can send it on WhatsApp.

Yes, at the Kandivali West office, or by video call, whichever you prefer.

Dhaval calls you back the same day, usually within 4 hours if you enquire during working hours (10am to 6pm, Monday to Sunday), to understand your goals and current investments. There is no obligation to invest.
