Catalyst to your wealth and business.

Two things, done properly. We help investors across India put money into mutual funds and stay invested. And we run the finance function for growing businesses that are not yet ready for a full-time CFO.

About Catalyst

Your business grows. Is your wealth growing with it?

Catalyst was founded to be the catalyst for two things at once — the growth of your business, and the wealth that ought to follow from it.

As an entrepreneur, your attention belongs on building and leading. Ours goes to the part that is easiest to postpone: what the numbers are actually saying, and what happens to the surplus once they are good. Because a successful business should not only create profits. It should create wealth for the people who built it.

Area one

Wealth & Investments

Your business creates income. Let your income create wealth.

  1. Income
  2. Plan
  3. Invest
  4. Compound
  5. Financial freedom
  6. Legacy

Earning well is only the beginning. What turns income into lasting wealth is discipline, the right decisions repeated over time, and — more often than anything else — simply having started.

Catalyst is an AMFI registered mutual fund distributor, working with individuals, families and business owners. We lay out the options and what separates one from another, complete the paperwork correctly the first time, and service the investment for as long as it is held — the mandate changes, the nominee updates, the redemption when the money is needed.

Our focus is not on chasing returns. What you invest in is your decision. Our job is to make it an informed one, and to see that it is carried out and looked after.

Plan with clarity. Invest with discipline. Build wealth with purpose.

AMFI Registered Mutual Fund Distributor · ARN 329775. We are not registered with SEBI as an investment adviser, we do not charge you a fee, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy any particular scheme.

Area two

Business Advisory & Growth

Build a business that grows beyond you.

  1. Understand
  2. Optimise
  3. Systemise
  4. Grow
  5. Scale
  6. Transform

Growing a business is not just about increasing sales. It is about building the right profitability, processes, controls and strategy behind that growth.

Catalyst works alongside entrepreneurs to understand their numbers, improve profitability, optimise costs, develop SOPs, strengthen internal controls and identify the next avenues for growth. From scaling and diversification to AI and automation-led transformation, we help businesses become more efficient, structured and future-ready.

You focus on leading your business. We help make it stronger, smarter and scalable.

Led by CA Devanshi Shah. A chartered accountancy engagement, charged as professional fees. It is separate from the mutual fund distribution above, is not covered by ARN 329775, and has nothing to do with investment advice.

How it works

Four steps, and none of them are a mystery

  1. We talk

    A conversation about what the money is for and when you need it back. No cost, no obligation to invest.

  2. You complete your KYC

    A one-time process required by regulation before anyone can invest in mutual funds in India. We walk you through it.

  3. You choose your schemes

    We lay out the options and what separates them, and answer questions. The decision is yours.

  4. We stay reachable

    Pausing an SIP, changing a bank mandate, adding a nominee, redeeming when you need the money. This is the part that actually lasts.

Tools

Run the numbers yourself

Six calculators — SIP, lumpsum, step-up SIP, SWP, goal amount and XIRR. They do arithmetic on the assumptions you give them. They are not a forecast, and no rate of return is promised or implied by them.

Scheme data

Every scheme's NAV, updated nightly

A searchable record of mutual fund schemes with their current net asset value, sourced from AMFI and refreshed every night. Factual data only — no rankings and no scheme recommendations.

Who you deal with

A practice of two chartered accountants

CA Dhaval Shah

CA Devanshi Shah

Co-founder

Over a decade across compliance, accounting and business consultancy, and a startup mentor. She leads the business side — profitability, SOPs, internal controls, and where the next opportunity for growth actually lies.
