Our story

Why Anika Investments exists

Most people in Dehradun do not lack the will to save. What they lack is someone nearby who will explain their options patiently, answer the same question twice without sighing, and still pick up the phone when markets fall.

Anika Investments was set up to be that someone. We are a mutual fund distribution practice, which means our work is to understand what your money is for, explain the products that may fit, help you complete the paperwork, and stay with you for the years it takes for investing to work. We do not manage money ourselves, and we do not promise returns — no honest person can.

Our investors include salaried families saving through a monthly SIP, government employees and teachers looking at tax-saving ELSS funds, retired professionals who want stability from debt funds and bonds, and small business owners in and around Paltan Bazaar who want their surplus to work harder. Many visit our office; others in Haridwar, Rishikesh, Haldwani or Delhi NCR work with us over phone, video and WhatsApp.

The people

Two founders, one simple approach

Between us we have worked across mutual funds, equity, bonds, PMS and AIF — so we can explain how each fits, and where it doesn't.

Anurag Gupta — AMFI-registered MFD, NISM Series V-A certified

Anurag holds ARN-116771 as an AMFI-registered Mutual Fund Distributor and has cleared the NISM Series V-A (Mutual Fund Distributors) certification. He looks after investor relationships, KYC and onboarding, goal conversations and periodic reviews, and he is the person you will usually meet at the office.

Jeet — 20+ years in securities markets

Jeet brings more than two decades of experience in the securities and financial markets. He has seen several full market cycles — booms, crashes and long sideways stretches — and that perspective shapes how we talk to investors about risk, volatility and staying the course.

What we know well

Areas of experience

We distribute mutual funds. Everything else here is knowledge we use to explain the bigger picture to you.

What we stand for

Four values we will not trade

≡

Transparency

We tell you how we are paid: commission from fund houses on Regular Plans, built into the expense ratio. Ask us, and we will show you the numbers.

∞

Patience

Wealth is built over years, not weeks. We would rather you start small and stay invested than chase whatever did well last quarter.

◎

Suitability

Products are matched to your goal, time horizon and comfort with risk — and we will say so when something is not right for you.

Local presence

A real office in the centre of Dehradun, a familiar face, and conversations in English or हिंदी.

Where to find us

Beside Ghanta Ghar, in the heart of Dehradun

Our office is at L51, MDDA Complex, right beside Ghanta Ghar on Rajpur Road and a few steps from Paltan Bazaar — the busy commercial heart of the city. If you have ever given someone directions in Dehradun, you have probably started with "go to Ghanta Ghar".

The clock tower itself is worth a second look. It is a six-sided (hexagonal) tower that was originally called Balbir Tower. Its foundation was laid in 1948 and it was inaugurated in 1953 by Lal Bahadur Shastri, who later became Prime Minister. Seven decades on, it is still the city's favourite meeting point — and ours too.

  • Walk in during office hours, or book a time on WhatsApp
  • Easy to reach from Rajpur Road, Paltan Bazaar and Dehradun railway station
  • Phone and video meetings for Delhi NCR and other cities

Frequently asked questions

Who runs Anika Investments?

Anika Investments is run by Anurag Gupta, an AMFI-registered Mutual Fund Distributor (ARN-116771) who holds the NISM Series V-A certification, together with his partner Jeet, who has more than 20 years of experience in the securities and financial markets.

Are you a SEBI-registered Investment Adviser?

No. We are a Mutual Fund Distributor registered with AMFI. Any guidance we give is incidental to distribution. If you want fee-based investment advice, you should approach a SEBI-registered Investment Adviser.

How do you earn money?

We receive commission from mutual fund houses on Regular Plans. This is already built into the scheme's expense ratio, so you do not pay us a separate fee. We disclose the commission openly and will share the details for your investments on request.

Can you help me invest in PMS or AIF?

We can explain how Portfolio Management Services and Alternative Investment Funds work, who they suit and what to check. Anika Investments is not registered with APMI as a PMS distributor, so our PMS and AIF content is educational. Read our PMS guide.

Where exactly is your office?

L51, MDDA Complex, Clock Tower (Ghanta Ghar), Dehradun 248001 — beside Ghanta Ghar on Rajpur Road, a short walk from Paltan Bazaar. See the contact page for the map and directions.
