How to register for the PPFAS Annual Unitholders' Meet in person
The AUM livestream is functionally complete. You see and hear everything, and you can submit questions through the chat or the pre-event form. So registering for the hall is essentially a trade: you spend a Saturday in Mumbai and the associated travel money, and in return you get the room itself. The fund managers in front of you, the chance to raise your hand directly during the Q&A, twenty minutes either side of the event when you can meet other PPFAS investors and sometimes the team. The 12th AUM (22 November 2025) was at Birla Matushree Sabhaghar near Marine Lines; the 13th will be in the same general window in 2026.
The walk-through
1. Catch the registration window
Registration usually opens six to eight weeks before the event. The same announcement runs across the September-October monthly factsheet, @PPFAS on X, the LinkedIn page, a pre-event video on YouTube, and an email to SelfInvest-registered investors. It carries the date, the venue, the registration link, the eligibility criteria, and the deadline.
The deadline is nominal. In practice the registration closes the moment capacity fills up, which on a popular year is well before the announced cut-off. Treat it as a same-day thing when the link goes live.
2. Submit the form
The form is on amc.ppfas.com under the AUM Registration page (prominently linked during the registration window). It asks for the standard set: full name as per PAN, PAN, any PPFAS folio number, contact email and mobile, city of residence, whether you intend to bring a guest (and the guest’s name if guest registration is open this year), and optionally a question or topic for the Q&A.
Submit, and wait. PPFAS confirms attendance by email, typically within one to two weeks. The confirmation carries the venue address with a map link, the event start time, and any pre-event reading material. If capacity is reached, you may be waitlisted instead; whether the waitlist moves depends on cancellations.
3. Plan travel and where to stay
PPFAS does not arrange travel or hotels. Direct flights to Mumbai run from every major Indian city, and trains and buses cover nearby ones. For accommodation, hotels in South Mumbai (Marine Drive, Nariman Point, Colaba) are close to Birla Matushree Sabhaghar on a five-to-twenty-minute taxi ride. Hotels in BKC or further afield are cheaper but you commute. Local transport during the day is straightforward: ride-hailing apps work well, taxis and autos are available, and the Mumbai locals connect Marine Lines station almost to the venue door.
International attendees should arrange the visa well in advance and plan for the time-zone shift on the day of the event.
4. What to carry
Required at the venue: a government photo ID (PAN, Aadhaar, passport, voter ID, or driving licence) and the registration confirmation either printed or on your phone. The two get checked at entry.
Worth carrying: a notebook (the presentations are dense enough that mental retention alone is a stretch), a water bottle, light snacks, and a pen. Food at the venue varies by year, so don’t assume.
5. The day itself
Arrive 30-45 minutes early. ID and registration check happens at entry; seating is first-come-first-served among registered attendees, so earlier arrival gets you better seats. Many investors use that pre-event window for informal networking with other attendees and, sometimes, with the PPFAS team.
The agenda mirrors the livestream (covered in how to watch the PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet livestream ): Neil opens, Rajeev presents on the year’s portfolio, Raunak follows on sector views, the live Q&A runs into the afternoon, and Neil closes. The thing different about being in the room is the Q&A. In-person attendees typically get the microphone before chat questions get curated in. If you have a question worth asking, this is where the trip pays for itself; how to submit questions for the PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet covers the framing.
Post-event, some attendees stay back for informal interaction with the team. Some don’t; everyone gets the same content out of the event itself.
