Both categories must meet qualification and certification requirements, but the structural and net-worth requirements differ based on the entity type.<\/p>\n<p>This guide explains SEBI registered investment adviser eligibility requirements as of August 2026 based on primary regulatory sources.

These include a qualifying educational background or experience (post-graduate degree in finance\/related field or graduate with five or more years of financial services experience), a valid NISM certification and meeting the applicable net-worth threshold. Non-individuals must also appoint a qualified principal officer.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_qualification_is_needed_for_IA_registration\"><\/span>What qualification is needed for IA registration?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Sebi registered investment adviser eligibility is relevant here. Individual applicants need either a post-graduate degree or diploma in finance, accountancy, business management, economics or a related field from a recognised university, or a graduate degree with at least five years of experience in activities relating to securities or financial services. The current detailed qualification criteria should be verified against the SEBI IA regulations and the latest IAASB guidance at the time of application.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_certification_is_required_for_investment_adviser_registration\"><\/span>What certification is required for investment adviser registration?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Sebi registered investment adviser eligibility is relevant here. Applicants must hold a valid NISM certification relevant to investment advisory. Persons associated with investment advice within a non-individual IA must also hold the required certification. NISM certifications are time-bound and must be renewed before expiry to maintain ongoing compliance.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_IAASB_and_why_does_it_matter_for_IA_registration\"><\/span>What is IAASB and why does it matter for IA registration?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Sebi registered investment adviser eligibility is relevant here. IAASB (Investment Adviser Administration and Supervisory Body, currently BSE) administers the IA registration application process on SEBI&#8217;s behalf. Applicants submit documentation through the IAASB online portal, and IAASB assesses eligibility and completeness before forwarding applications to SEBI. IAASB also handles ongoing supervisory functions including periodic reporting and enlistment compliance for registered IAs.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_net-worth_requirement_applies_to_investment_advisers\"><\/span>What net-worth requirement applies to investment advisers?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Sebi registered investment adviser eligibility is relevant here. SEBI specifies a net-worth threshold for both individual and non-individual IA applicants. The threshold for non-individuals is higher than for individuals. The specific figures are subject to regulatory updates; applicants should verify the current net-worth requirement directly from the latest SEBI IA regulations or IAASB guidance before applying.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_an_entity_in_any_legal_form_register_as_an_Investment_Adviser\"><\/span>Can an entity in any legal form register as an Investment Adviser?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Sebi registered investment adviser eligibility is relevant here. SEBI allows individuals, companies, LLPs and partnership firms to register as Investment Advisers, subject to meeting the applicable eligibility criteria for each entity type. Banks and NBFCs can also provide investment advisory services subject to RBI permission and SEBI-compliant structure. Sole proprietorships follow the individual eligibility track.<\/p>\n<div class=\"faq-schema\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SEBI registered investment adviser eligibility:
