Parent-first investment platform ‘Nestvest’ announces pan-India launch

New Delhi: Nestvest, a SEBI-registered goal-based investing app for parents from Wealthdoor Group, has announced the pan-India launch of its investment advisory operations to help parents build financial security for their children.

With zero commission, Nestvest makes professional investment guidance accessible and affordable for Indian parents, including in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, at a flat annual advisory fee.

Wealthdoor Group comes with a proven record of SEC-registered advisory operations in the United States. Built on Wealthdoor’s global financial expertise, Nestvest enables parents to plan for education, weddings, a first home and other milestones of their children through personalized portfolios, direct mutual funds, automated contributions, and goal-wise tracking.

For each specific goal, the app recommends a diversified portfolio of direct mutual fund plans, which the SEBI has encouraged fund houses to promote, based on the goal’s time horizon and the parent’s risk profile. The platform recorded 1,25,000 sign-ups during the invite-only initial rollout, signaling a strong appetite for goal-based investing among Indian parents.

As part of the national rollout, Nestvest has also introduced an inaugural advisory subscription starting at ₹29 per year for a limited festive period as against a regular entry plan of ₹599 per year, with investments starting at ₹500 per month.

Kunal Anand, Founder, Wealthdoor and Nestvest, said: “Every parent dreams of a better future for their children, but dreams need financial planning, discipline, and the power of compounding to become reality. We believe professional wealth management should not be a privilege reserved for wealthy families. Through Nestvest, which is built for every Indian parent, our mission is to help India move from self-investing to goal-based, advised investing.”

Inspired by India’s tradition of gifting money during festivals, Nestvest has also introduced Shagun. The one-time top-up feature allows parents to invest monetary gifts received by children towards long-term financial goals rather than letting it get absorbed into everyday expenses.

Akshima Anand, Co-Founder, Nestvest, said: “At Nestvest, we believe the greatest gift parents can give their children is a financially secure future. Our mission is to make investing simple, personal and accessible, so every family can turn aspirations into a structured financial plan.”

Wealthdoor, which also offers cross-border access to global stocks, is also in discussions with several employers to offer Nestvest to their employees as a workplace benefit.
