by Suman Gupta
Mumbai, February 2021:TejiMandi (TM Investment Technologies Pvt. Ltd.) is a SEBI- registered investment advisor which simplifies stock market investing for retail investors. A subsidiary of Motilal Oswal Financial Services, TejiMandi aspires to provide prowess of equity investment services at a low-cost accessible price point. The investment team is led by Chief Investment Officer Vaibhav Agrawal and includes industry veterans Mr. Raamdeo Agrawal & Mr. Ajay Menon on the board of directors.
With an objective to become one of the most accessible & actively managed investment advisory services in India for retail investors, TejiMandi offers an all-weather model actively managed investment with regular rebalance updates through its application. This is a broker agnostic facility, where users can transact using their existing demat account or get assistance in opening a new one.
Subscription plans to the application start at Rs. 149/month and provide investors access to an actively managed investment advisory with portfolio of 15-20 stocks at a one click buy, sell & rebalance facility. The stocks are recommended based on the investor’s risk profile. The investment strategy combines tactical bets with long-term winners. Tactical bets include special company situations from a 3-6 month perspective, while long-term winners looks at stocks from a 12-18 month perspective. The team is disciplined with rebalancing and looks at three scenarios – 1) A change in fundamentals 2) Too much noise around a stock 3) A company with a substantially better risk-reward ratio. The team also advises investors to park their money in liquid instruments like index funds and ETFs when the market crashes or is extremely volatile to help them in mitigating risk.
What sets the product apart is its focus on providing the rationale behind why the customer should buy/sell stocks along with a non-discretionary advisory model, where the customer has the power to execute and have pragmatic control on their investments, unlike mutual fund investments. With a minimum investment advice starts at as low as Rs 20,000, the product makes equity advisory significantly more accessible compared to PMS products where the minimum ticket size is Rs. 50 lacs.
The company’s flagship portfolio has generated a stellar return of 82% since its inception in February 2020. Graph is as given below.
