Step-by-step procedure

See the procedure infobox above.

What INDmoney offers beyond MFs

  • US stocks: Through partner US broker, fractional-share investing in US equities (Apple, Microsoft, etc.) under LRS (Liberalised Remittance Scheme).
  • NPS: National Pension System account opening and SIP contributions.
  • Fixed deposits: Compare FD rates across banks; book through aggregator partners.
  • CAS aggregation: Imports your Consolidated Account Statement to show all MF holdings across platforms.
  • Credit score: Free credit score check from bureau partners.

This makes INDmoney distinctive as a single-app personal-finance platform.

MF-specific features

  • Direct plans only.
  • Categorisation, returns comparison, expense ratio filters.
  • Goal-based portfolios.
  • Risk profile questionnaire-driven recommendations.

Coverage

All SEBI-registered AMCs accessible via direct plan.

Cross-asset implications

If you use INDmoney for both MFs and US stocks, you’ll need:

  • LRS-compliant USD remittance for US stocks (separate KYC for US broking partner).
  • Form A2 for outward remittance.
  • Annual reporting under FEMA for US holdings.

This is a complexity layer that pure MF platforms (Coin, Groww, Kuvera) don’t have.
