Chennai based Rightfunds.com believes Knowledge, Dynamism & Integrity are the cornerstones of their existence. The brainchild of Vasudev Gupta, Rightfunds came into existence with a simple thought of providing the investors maximum tax-free returns that beat the market and other standard saving instruments such as FD's and Savings bank accounts. Having successfully handled various positions in his family business and a brief working stint outside, Gupta forayed into the Fintech sector with Rightfunds.com. He holds a Master’s of Science degree in Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Management from Imperial College London and a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering from the University of Nottingham.

“I had seen individual agents sell mutual funds/insurance products door to door. Having bought some funds through an agent I soon realized what a versatile product mutual funds were. Some quick market research said that mutual fund penetration in India stood at roughly 4 percent as against the west. I knew there was a gap to be filled, and it could only be effectively catered to by leveraging upon technology as

a means to disburse the service. Thus, Rightfunds,”informs Gupta.
