PMS Bazaar has tied up with NSDL Database Management Ltd (NDML) to help eligible investors obtain SEBI's Accredited Investor certification. The partnership aims to simplify and speed up the process through end-to-end assistance, PMS Bazaar said in a release. Under SEBI's Accredited Investor framework, certified individuals and entities can access lower minimum investment thresholds for Portfolio Management Services (PMS), Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs), and other alternative products.
R Pallavarajan, founder of PMS Bazaar, said the collaboration strengthens the platform's role in the alternative investment ecosystem. Rajesh Kumar S of NDML added that the tie-up will offer a smoother experience through digital processing under strict regulatory compliance. The announcement was made on August 12, 2026.
The collaboration promises simpler certification, but the real shift depends on SEBI enforcing consistent thresholds across PMS and AIFs. Critics may dismiss this as a marketing ploy by PMS Bazaar, yet the Accredited Investor framework does offer tangible benefits. The question is: will the certification process actually lower minimum investment amounts for ordinary high-net-worth individuals, or just add another layer of paperwork? Watch for the number of certifications completed in the first quarter.
