SEBI Registered Investment Advisers (RIAs) in India operate under a fee-based advisory model with fiduciary obligations to their clients. Running an RIA practice requires managing client portfolios, calculating and executing rebalancing trades, maintaining SEBI compliance records, onboarding new clients with KYC verification and risk profiling, collecting advisory fees, and communicating portfolio updates. AlphaQuark provides purpose-built software that addresses each of these RIA workflows. The platform enables RIAs to create model portfolios with defined target allocations across equity and thematic strategies. When a portfolio is updated, automated rebalancing calculates the exact buy and sell orders needed for each individual client based on their current holdings. Trade execution is integrated with 14 Indian stock brokers, including Zerodha, Angel One, Upstox, Groww, Dhan, Fyers, ICICI Direct, Kotak Securities, HDFC Securities, Axis Direct, IIFL Securities, Motilal Oswal, 5Paisa and AliceBlue, allowing clients to execute recommended trades with a single click. SEBI compliance is automated throughout the platform with immutable audit trails for every recommendation and trade, disclosure management, investor charter compliance, and SCORES integration. Client onboarding includes digital KYC verification, risk profiling questionnaires, and electronic agreement signing. Advisory fee collection and invoicing are built into the subscription management system. RIAs can launch a white-label mobile app branded with their practice name, logo, and colors, giving clients a professional investment experience. Performance reporting includes TWRR, XIRR, benchmark comparisons, and drawdown analysis. Current setup plans are INR 99,000 for onboarding to the AlphaQuark app or INR 3,00,000 for a white-labelled app, plus the applicable recurring revenue share/minimum with plans scaled for solo RIAs, growing practices, and multi-advisor firms.
AlphaQuark supports the complete RIA workflow: model portfolio creation, per-client rebalancing, multi-broker trade execution, fee-based subscription management, digital KYC onboarding, risk profiling, and SEBI compliance automation. Every feature is designed for the fee-based advisory model.
RIA clients use various brokers. AlphaQuark integrates with Zerodha, Angel One, Upstox, Groww, Dhan, Fyers, ICICI Direct, Kotak Securities, HDFC Securities, Axis Direct, IIFL Securities, Motilal Oswal, 5Paisa and AliceBlue, enabling one-click execution regardless of which broker a client uses. No need to turn away clients based on broker preference.
SEBI RIA regulations require audit trails, disclosure management, investor charter compliance, KYC verification, and complaint resolution through SCORES. AlphaQuark automates all of these requirements, keeping your practice inspection-ready at all times.
Launch a white-label mobile app with your RIA practice branding. Manage advisory fee collection and invoicing through built-in subscription management. Provide clients with portfolio tracking, performance reports, and trade execution under your own brand.
Check five things. First, whether clients can execute through the broker they already use, or must open a new account. Second, whether rebalancing is calculated per client from actual holdings rather than one generic trade list. Third, whether risk profiling and suitability are recorded before advice is given, as the IA Regulations 2013 require. Fourth, whether every recommendation is time-stamped so it can later be verified through PaRRVA. Fifth, who owns the client relationship and brand. Platforms that list your portfolio in their own marketplace keep the client; white-label platforms leave the client with you.
RIAs charge advisory fees rather than commissions, so the software has to collect fees, raise invoices and keep advice separate from distribution. AlphaQuark records the risk profile and agreement at onboarding, collects the advisory fee through subscriptions, and then lets the client act on each recommendation with one click through their linked broker account. The record of what was advised, when, and what the client did is kept in one place for inspection.
Choose software that covers onboarding with risk profiling, model portfolios, per-client rebalancing, execution through the client's own broker and a time-stamped audit trail. AlphaQuark covers all of these and executes across 14 Indian brokers, under the RIA's own brand.

Yes. Every rebalance is stored as a dated advice record when it is published, which is the contemporaneous data PaRRVA verification relies on.
