₹10 lakh to ₹1 crore: When does hiring an investment adviser make financial sense? Here's what experts recommend | Mint
Experts say there is no fixed corpus that decides when you need an investment adviser. A practical range is ₹25 lakh to ₹50 lakh, but complexity, tax planning, debt and family duties matter more than wealth alone. Even those with ₹10 lakh to ₹20 lakh may benefit when starting out. At ₹1 crore and beyond, succession planning matters.
Key Statutory Highlights
- Experts say ₹25 lakh to ₹50 lakh is a practical range where professional advice starts becoming more meaningful, but these are not hard thresholds.
- At ₹1 crore and beyond, investors may need to look at concentration risk, withdrawal planning, succession and estate planning.
- Someone with ₹30 lakh spread across salary, ESOPs, a home loan and children's education goals may have a more complex situation than someone with ₹1 crore in a few diversified funds.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Look at your own mix of income, loans, family duties and tax position, rather than your total corpus alone, and consider a one-time financial plan if your situation feels hard to manage.
