Observation:

  1. At present Wealth Management companies should be on wait and watch mode as such strong funds inflow may not sustain. Two key players we are focusing upon are Anand Rathi and Nuvama Wealth.
  2. Trail revenue from Mutual Fund AUM as commission is key point to note in this industry unlike other products of Wealth Management Companies.
