The answer depends on whether the legal entity itself changes or whether control simply passes to a new owner within the same legal structure \u2014 a distinction that determines whether the existing registration continues or a fresh application is needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>An investor&#8217;s relationship is technically with the registered legal entity rather than the individual who controls it. Understanding the investment adviser change of control registration framework helps investors assess whether they need to re-verify their adviser&#8217;s registration status after an ownership change.<\/p>\n<p>This guide explains the investment adviser change of control registration outcome, when existing registrations continue versus when fresh registrations are required.<\/p>\n<p

Whether the registration number continues depends on the structure of the change. If the same legal entity continues under new ownership, the registration typically remains with that entity. If the advisory business transfers to a new legal entity, a fresh registration is required and a new registration number is assigned.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_happens_to_an_IA_registration_after_a_merger\"><\/span>What happens to an IA registration after a merger?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Investment adviser change of control registration is relevant here. If the IA entity is absorbed into the acquiring entity in a merger, the IA registration typically does not transfer automatically. The surviving entity must apply for a fresh IA registration through IAASB. The exact treatment depends on the specific merger structure and should be confirmed with SEBI\/IAASB before the merger is completed.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_registration_fees_payable_again_for_a_fresh_registration_after_a_control_change\"><\/span>Are registration fees payable again for a fresh registration after a control change?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Investment adviser change of control registration is relevant here. Yes. A fresh registration application requires payment of the applicable SEBI regulatory fees and IAASB administrative charges. The previous entity&#8217;s registration history does not offset or credit the fees payable for the new entity&#8217;s registration.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_should_investors_react_to_a_change_of_control_at_their_IA\"><\/span>How should investors react to a change of control at their IA?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Investment adviser change of control registration is relevant here. Investors should re-verify the registration status at sebi.gov.in after any change of control event is announced. Confirm whether the registration number is the same or has changed. Check that the entity name associated with the registration matches the entity with which you have a client agreement. Request an updated client agreement from the new entity if the legal entity providing advisory services has changed.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_the_old_and_new_IA_entities_use_the_same_SEBI_registration_number\"><\/span>Can the old and new IA entities use the same SEBI registration number?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Investment adviser change of control registration is relevant here. No. A SEBI registration number is granted to a specific legal entity and cannot be transferred to a different entity. If the advisory business moves to a new entity, the new entity must obtain its own SEBI registration number through the fresh application process.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_if_a_client_agreement_is_with_the_old_IA_entity_that_no_longer_holds_a_registration\"><\/span>What if a client agreement is with the old IA entity that no longer holds a registration?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ans.<\/strong> Investment adviser change of control registration is relevant here. If the registered entity your agreement is with has transferred the business or been dissolved and you now receive services from a different entity, the client agreement should be updated to reflect the current registered entity. Continuing to receive services under an agreement with a non-registered or dissolved entity creates an unresolved advisory relationship that should be clarified.<\/p>\n<div
