Hands-Off Managed Investing
Let a SEBI-registered Shariah adviser or certified portfolio manager build and monitor your halal portfolio. The best option for hands-off investors.
How It Works
Choose an adviser, smallcase, or PMS tier
SEBI-registered Shariah advisers run model portfolios from about Rs 50,000 (Vivekam) or Rs 5,000 a month SIPs. Halal smallcase baskets (Zamzam Capital, Green Portfolio) run on flat subscriptions through your own broker. TASIS-certified PMS mandates (Geojit) start at SEBI's Rs 50 lakh floor.
Answer their risk questionnaire
The adviser will ask about your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance to determine the right portfolio allocation for you.
Fund your account and let them manage it
Set up recurring contributions. The adviser handles stock selection, Shariah screening, and rebalancing; smallcase portfolios execute through your own broker and demat account.
Review performance periodically
Check in quarterly or annually. Ask for compliance and purification reporting alongside performance, and get the full fee schedule in writing.
Why Choose This Strategy?
Things to consider ▾
• Advisory and PMS fees come on top of brokerage and fund costs
• Less control over individual holdings and allocation
Managed halal portfolios are the easiest way to invest larger sums as a Muslim in India. Instead of choosing your own stocks, a SEBI-registered Shariah adviser or portfolio manager does it for you: selecting screened stocks, monitoring compliance, and rebalancing.
This is a genuine Indian niche. India has no halal robo-advisor, but it does have SEBI-registered advisers running halal-only mandates: SenSage (India's first halal-only SEBI RIA), Vivekam's TASIS-screened portfolios, Zamzam Capital's scholar-supervised smallcases, and TASIS-certified PMS mandates from Geojit and Green Portfolio.
The main trade-off is cost and minimums. Advisory portfolios start around Rs 50,000, smallcase baskets near Rs 53,000, and PMS mandates carry SEBI's Rs 50 lakh regulatory floor. Fees come on top of brokerage, so ask for the complete schedule in writing before signing.
Most halal advisers also handle the religious mechanics: screening methodology, purification calculations, and compliance alerts. These features make it easier to fulfill your obligations alongside your financial goals.
