Do you need more time?

Nothing has happened on this page for a while. To keep your details safe it will be hidden in about two minutes. Your saved progress is kept; numbers typed but not yet saved (such as your PAN or Aadhaar) would be cleared.

Your planStep 1

Who is subscribing?

Pick one — the next step is the one you need. Nothing is charged until you have read and signed your agreement.

Not sure which fits? Pick Vantage — if your PAN turns out to be for a company, trust or HUF we switch you to the Meridian flow on the next step and nothing is lost. Accredited individuals can start on either side; Meridian is the right choice when you want the private desk and the scoped mandate.

Which plan?

Fees exclude GST. Nothing is charged until you have read and signed your agreement.

Usually about ten minutes. Have your PAN and Aadhaar to hand. The agreement at the end is signed with an Aadhaar OTP, which UIDAI sends to the mobile number registered against your Aadhaar — so use that phone, even if it is not the number you give us for contact.

Welcome back.

Started this on another device?

We kept what you typed last time on this device — your name, email and mobile. Your PAN and date of birth were not saved here, so you will enter those again.

Who you are

As printed on your PAN card. DigiLocker confirms the rest in a moment.

SEBI requires us to file your KYC with a KRA within 3 working days, and the number is part of that filing. It is stored encrypted and is not shown back to you.

Is this still right?

This is what the registry holds. Correct anything that has changed — we will update the registry for you.

About you

The KYC registry asks for these. We file them once, so the next firm you deal with does not ask again.

From your Aadhaar, via DigiLocker

Gender, as on your Aadhaar

A band, never the amount. It does not affect your research.

How we reach you

Your agreement and portal password go to this email. Next, you verify your identity on DigiLocker.

Whichever you choose, both email addresses will still sign in to your account. Anything already signed keeps the address printed on it.

Is anyone in your family (spouse, dependent children, dependent parents) already subscribed to Desvelado research?

SEBI caps research fees at ₹1,51,000 per family per year, so we count your family's subscriptions together.

Your address

It goes on your agreement, and your state sets the GST on your invoice.

From the KYC registry

Is your permanent address the same as this one?

A few declarations

Every regulated firm asks these. None of them affects your research or your fee.

Are you an Indian citizen, resident in India, born in India, and a tax resident of India only?

The KYC registry records your nationality, residence and tax residence. Most people answer Yes.

Are you a tax resident of any country other than India?

Do you have a disability (differently abled)?

The KYC Registration Agency asks every intermediary to record this. It does not affect your research access or fees — it lets us offer accessible service.

Your documents

DigiLocker checked your details. SEBI also requires us to keep a copy of your KYC documents — the check confirms the numbers, the copy is the record. A clear photo or a PDF is fine.

Your documents from DigiLocker do not match what you told us, so we need a copy:

      If you upload your Aadhaar as proof of address, please mask the first eight digits — we only need the last four.

      Your company

      That PAN belongs to a company, so we need slightly different details.

      Who will sign

      We will email them to confirm this address before anything is sent to it.

      Your documents

      The documents a corporate account needs. Nothing here is charged — send what you have, or email the rest later.

      Filled in from your details. Sign it, then send it back below.

        You can come back to this link and add the rest later — nothing is lost.

        Thank you — we have your company details

        A corporate account is opened by a person here, not online: the authorisation and the documents need checking. We will be in touch on the email you gave, usually within one working day.

        Nothing has been charged, and no agreement has been signed.

        If you still have documents to send, reply to that email and attach them — or come back to this link.

        Your PAN

        Checked against the income-tax record before we ask you for anything else.

        Verify your identity

        One step on DigiLocker, the government's own service. It takes about a minute.

        You will sign in to DigiLocker and approve sharing your Aadhaar (and your PAN, if it is in your DigiLocker) with us — we keep them as your KYC record. We never see your OTP — you authenticate on DigiLocker's own page and it tells us the result. The Aadhaar number you entered earlier is held encrypted for the KRA filing; it is not what signs you in here.

        It opens in a new tab so you do not lose your place here. Come back to this tab when you are done — this page checks by itself.

        Signing with Aadhaar

        You will be taken to the signing screen, where an OTP is sent to the mobile linked to your Aadhaar.

        Desvelado Advisory Private Limited (Research Analyst department)

        SEBI Registered Research Analyst · INH000028723
        BSE RAASB Enlistment No. 7338

        Market risk

        Investment in securities market are subject to market risks. Read all the related documents carefully before investing.

        Registration granted by SEBI, enlistment with BSE and certification from NISM in no way guarantee performance of the intermediary or provide any assurance of returns to investors.

        What we are, and what we are not

        We are a SEBI-registered Research Analyst. We publish research — written views on securities, on a defined universe, to everybody on the same plan at the same time.

        We do not provide investment advice tailored to your circumstances, we do not manage money or hold your securities, and we do not guarantee returns. Nothing in this onboarding asks about your goals or risk appetite, because a Research Analyst may not act on them.

        Fees

        The fee shown at checkout is the fee stated in your agreement and excludes GST, which is added separately. SEBI caps what a Research Analyst may charge an individual or HUF client, and that cap is measured per family per year on the fee — not on the GST-inclusive total.

        Payment is taken only after you have read and signed the agreement, and only on this page. We never ask for your card details, an OTP or a password by phone, email or WhatsApp, and no employee of Desvelado will ever do so.

        Your identity documents

        Your PAN and date of birth are used to ask a SEBI-registered KYC Registration Agency whether it already holds your KYC. They are stored encrypted, and your date of birth is never sent back to your browser.

        Signing is done through a licensed e-sign provider using Aadhaar OTP, and we never see that OTP — you authenticate on the provider's own page and it returns a signature certificate, not an identity document.

        Your Aadhaar number is collected and stored, encrypted. SEBI requires us to file your KYC with a KRA within three working days of verifying it, and the number is part of that filing. It is never shown back to you on this site. Our staff can reveal it only by giving a written reason, and every reveal is recorded permanently in our audit log.

        Use of AI

        Desvelado uses AI and automation tools to assist parts of its research workflow — including data extraction, document summarisation and draft generation. Every recommendation is reviewed and approved by a qualified research analyst before publication, and Desvelado remains fully responsible for all research issued, including AI-assisted output.

        Complaints

        Write to our Compliance and Grievance Officer at grievance@desvelado.in or call 011 4084 6817 / 011 4563 5652 (Mon–Fri, 9:00–18:00 IST). Every complaint is acknowledged and resolved within 21 days.
