How to watch the PPFAS Annual Unitholders' Meet livestream

The PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet is the AMC’s one big event of the year. Once a Saturday late in the calendar, Rajeev Thakkar and the rest of the team sit in front of a Mumbai auditorium for three or four hours, walk through what the portfolio did and why, and then take questions for as long as people keep asking them. The in-person hall fills up; the YouTube livestream is how everyone else watches. The 12th AUM ran on 22 November 2025 at Birla Matushree Sabhaghar; the 13th will be sometime in Q4 2026 with the date confirmed about a month and a half ahead.

The walk-through

1. Catch the date announcement

PPFAS announces the AUM date about four to six weeks ahead. The same announcement goes out across several channels: the August-October monthly factsheet carries an inserted notice, @PPFAS posts on X and LinkedIn, the YouTube channel often puts up a short trailer, SelfInvest emails registered investors, and the financial press (Cafemutual, PrimeInvestor, etc.) picks it up. The announcement names the date, the Mumbai venue, and the YouTube live-stream URL.

2. Block the calendar

AUMs are usually held on a Saturday for higher attendance, with a mid-morning IST start (10:00-11:00 AM) and a finish in early afternoon. The 12th AUM ran roughly 10:30 AM to 2:30 PM IST. International viewers should account for the time difference: 10:30 AM IST lands in the early morning on the US west coast, late afternoon in Europe, and evening in East Asia.

3. Subscribe and turn on notifications

Visit youtube.com/@PPFASMF and subscribe. Tap the bell icon and pick All notifications rather than the algorithm-driven personalised setting; for a once-a-year event you don’t want YouTube guessing at relevance. Background on the channel itself is at how to access the PPFAS YouTube channel .

4. Join the stream

When the day arrives, open YouTube and go to the PPFAS channel. The live-stream tile is the prominent one with the LIVE badge. Tap to join. Use a wired connection or strong wifi if you can (4 Mbps minimum for HD), and use the biggest screen available; an event this long is much easier on a TV or laptop than a phone.

5. The agenda, and where to focus

A typical AUM moves through five segments. Neil Parikh opens with 15-30 minutes of business and organisational updates. Rajeev Thakkar then presents on the year’s portfolio, market views, and positioning for 60-90 minutes. Raunak Onkar follows with sector views, portfolio thinking, and the behavioural-finance themes the year called for. The live Q&A, where the fund managers respond to in-person attendees and curated chat questions, runs 60-90 minutes. Neil closes.

The Q&A is the segment most regular viewers stay for. Questions cover portfolio decisions, macro views, philosophical clarifications, and operational matters. If you want to participate, how to submit questions for the PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet covers the channels.

6. Live chat, if you want

YouTube’s live chat is typically enabled. You can post questions, reactions, or comments visible to other viewers and the PPFAS team. Some chat questions get pulled into the live Q&A; many don’t. Either way, it works best as a low-friction way to engage, not as the primary question-submission channel.

7. After the stream

YouTube preserves timestamps so you can jump straight to the CIO presentation, the overseas-allocation discussion, or whichever segment you want to revisit. PPFAS or community members often add chapter markers in the description or a pinned comment. If you miss the live event, the full recording usually appears on the channel within a few days; how to access archived PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet recordings covers navigating the back catalogue.
