About Dhanvesttor

Real wealth isn't just built. It's owned.

Dhanvesttor exists because too many capable women were left out of decisions about their own money. Not for lack of interest. For lack of access, and trust.

Our story

A firm built from an uncomfortable room.

Our founder, Anooshka Soham Bathwal, trained in finance at the London School of Economics and spent her early career in rooms full of men in suits. She found them intimidating, and she noticed that other women did too.

She built Dhanvesttor as the opposite: a SEBI-registered portfolio manager where the conversation is a dialogue, not a pitch, and where learning comes before any product. What began as a women-focused PMS has grown into a firm with mutual fund distribution, insurance, fixed income, and a community programme that reaches women well beyond our client base.
