Our CEO @atulshinghal spoke to Arundathi Ramanan on @CNBCTV18Live about Scripbox's acquistion of Bluechip Capital, what's driving consolidation in India's wealth management industry, and how we're thinking about growth.
At its core, this deal was about trust. Ravi Kohli built Bluechip Capital over 33 years on deep client relationships. We're proud to carry that forward.

Wedding gifts are fully tax-free. No ₹50K limit.
But income from those gifts? Taxable.
And clubbing rules can apply.
Celebrate—but keep records clean.

The best portfolios aren’t built on one asset.
They’re built on the right mix.
Equity grows.
Debt stabilises.
Gold protects.
That’s how wealth survives and compounds.

The Sensex has lived through dot-com, a global financial crisis, and a pandemic.
It didn't just survive. It grew 80x.
The next time a headline makes you nervous, zoom out.
Flat SIP = slower wealth.
₹20K SIP → ₹1 crore in 16 years.
Add 10% annual step-up → 12 years.
If your income grows, your SIP should too.

Ever checked your portfolio and felt your stomach drop?
You're not imagining it. The average intra-year fall in the Sensex is -20%.
But here's what the panic makes us forget: 80% of those years ended positive.
The volatility you feel in July rarely defines where you stand in December.
We put together a simple visual that shows what market dips feel like versus what actually happens over 30 years of data.
Worth a look before your next urge to "do something."
Markets don’t destroy wealth.
Panic does.
Miss the best 5 recovery days and your returns can be cut in half.
Those days come right after crashes.
Time in the market > timing the market.

Cash isn’t the problem. Unexplained cash is.
Fail to justify large cash amounts and tax + penalties can take up to 84% of it.
Avoid high-value cash transactions. Keep records clean.

Wrong question: "Should I wait for a dip?"
Right question: "Can I stay invested long enough to not care?"
45+ years of data. One answer.
#scripbox#investing
If you started investing in the 2000s, you spent half that decade watching your portfolio bleed.
52% of the time, markets were down 20% or more.
No wonder an entire generation learned to fear equities.
But that has changed:
In the 2010s, that number dropped to 6%. In the 2020s so far? Just 4%.
Even with COVID. Even with geopolitical chaos.
This is structural rather than mere luck.
India's economy matured → Corporate balance sheets got stronger → Domestic investors (especially SIP investors) became the backbone of our markets
The bears haven't disappeared. But they've gotten smaller, and they leave faster.
Something to remember the next time a red day makes you want to hit "redeem."
The market hit an all-time high. And somewhere, someone decided to wait.
"Let me wait for a correction. I'll invest when it dips 10%."
It sounds prudent. It feels smart. But here's what 45 years of Sensex data actually shows:
Whether a 10% correction comes after an All Time High?
Genuinely 50/50. A coin toss.
But whether the market eventually recovers and surpasses that high? 100%. Every single time.
The uncertain part is timing. The certain part is direction.
So the real question isn't "will it correct?"
It's "can I stay invested long enough to not care?"
The only variable has always been time.
RBI is upgrading digital payment authentication.
OTP stays — but biometrics, app tokens & other dynamic checks are coming.
Result: faster payments, stronger security, fewer failures.
Banks must compensate if they don’t comply.

@NimishaChanda This is very aligned with how we work at @scripbox .
Long-term thinking, discipline with monthly investing, and steady guidance through market cycles.
Happy to talk if you’re looking for a second brain.
Sectoral funds can deliver big returns — and big drawdowns.
They work best as tactical add-ons, not core holdings.
The real question: do they fit your portfolio?
