Money is one the most vital part of our lives. We, all work hard primarily for money and money is what helps us live a life we aspire for. Every time, we are keeping in search of the best financial products which could able to enhance our money to meet our financial goals but most of us get in trap of the flawed financial products. Why is this so? We have to deal with financial questions like: which products to invest in for a secure financial future, how much of life insurance is enough, should we take a family floater plan, what are the best tax-saving options, how to get align financial products with financial goals… The biggest hurdle in getting answers to such questions is the vast array of financial products to choose from thousands of mutual fund schemes, hundreds of insurance products and fixed-income products, thousands of actively traded stocks… etc. We don’t have time to deal with all this. Most probably, the only time we may fix our finances is over the weekend. But the weekend is for our friends and family and leisure. We don’t want to waste it on figuring out financial products especially when the field is so vast and confusing, even savvy people are financially confused.

We help you realize your personal and financial “GOAL”, why are you investing, what is the goal associated with your investment. Is it buying Home?, Buying Car? Vacation after 3 years?, Child’s education & Marriage and Retirement Planning?
We provide a “PLAN” to help you reach your goals, discuss opportunities that may be right for you and address any changes that may occur in your life and financial world.
We make decisions based on sound recommendations to achieve your financial objectives. Now you just have to take “ACTION” and don’t doubt it again and again, because you have cleared everything before.
Why people do not Plan?
There are many reasons why people may not undertake financial planning on their own, including the following:
- Thinking they have insufficient assets or income to warrant planning
- Assuming their financial situation is in good order
- Putting off what is complex and worrisome
- Not wanting to consider unpleasant events, such as death, disability, unemployment, or property loss
- Thinking financial planning is expensive
All of these assumptions are faulty. Of course, failing to plan ahead also costs money. The consequences of not planning include the following:
- Inadequate protection against personal catastrophes such as death, disability, serious illness, an automobile accident, prolonged unemployment, or other major negative events
- Too little money set aside for retirement or for the family’s educational needs
- Higher than necessary income or gift taxation
- Unplanned estates, with higher taxes and settlement costs
- Not reaching financial goals in life
Why you need Our Help?
Many people have inadequate skills in making informed, systematic decisions about their own finances. They have little exposure to good decision-making models. We help peoples identify their needs and good ways to meet them while avoiding potential obstacles.

Suresh Kumar Narula is a very learned and experienced professional in the field of financial planning. His commitment to his profession is amply demonstrated by his having got registered with SEBI as Investment Adviser and his efforts for creating financial awareness through his writings, among other things. His making financial strategies/plan before recommending any financial product and explaining logic behind each recommendation speaks of his worthiness to be sought as a trusted financial planner by any investor. –SUKHWIDNER SIDHU, RIA, CFPCM
It is a very brave decision to carve out a business out of Fee Based Financial Planning in India today, as the industry though fast growing is still new. Because financial planning is an art and not just a product which people mostly percieve it as. Hence, it does take a courageous visionary + the will to do the right thing for such a thing. Mr. Narula encapsulates all these qualities and more, and he does so with panache! Always self motivated and his drive to refine the financial advisory industry is inspiring. I wish him success for all his future endeavours and look forward hearing more of his achievements in the industry.”
