Comprehensive List Of All Alternative Investment Platforms In India

Comprehensive List Of All Alternative Investment Platforms In India

In this article, we have mentioned all available alternative investment platforms along with alternative aggregators in India that have either been discussed in our WhatsApp community or we know of personally. Any platform's name here in this list doesn't mean we endorse their work, products or the deals they are bringing to market. Some of these are plain outright fraud and you need to be careful about where you put your money. We have just included them so this becomes a comprehensive list.

💡
Note, that some links below are referral links or IFA links, if you sign up using those links, we might or might not get certain commissions from platforms. This does not cost you anything but helps us run this blog for free while keeping high-quality content alive.

If you are unsure about certain products/instruments here, search for detailed reviews/explanations on our blog before signing up. Alternative investments are risky and not suited for every portfolio so please do proper due diligence before investing.

💡
We want to bring to your notice that on 18th November 2024, SEBI sent an interim ex-parte order to Tap Invest, altGraaf and Stable Investments, calling them “Unregistered Online Platforms (UOPs)”. The ex-parte order meant that the order was directly issued to the platforms without any show-cause notice a.k.a. warning. You can read our in-depth blog on this SEBI circular here-https://blog.thealtinvestor.in/sebi-doesnt-want-you-to-buy-unlisted-securities

Other Alternatives Platforms

Below is a list of platforms that are difficult to classify into one particular bucket. I don't trust any of these platforms, they are violating some SEBI rules as well but that's my opinion and should not be considered as defamation by the platform.

Alternative Aggregators

Below are some aggregators present in the alternatives ecosystem that help you get the best deal across all platforms above on a risk-reward basis. They do earn a fee directly from the platform, the service is free of cost for you. You should try them out as they know much more about the overall ecosystem than you will know via regular means.


Thanks for reading, that's it from our side. If you know of any platforms or any new category that should be added to this list, please let me know via Whatsapp and I will get it done. If you would like to join our Whatsapp Community, please apply here.
