What each registration lets them do

Red flags — walk away if you see these

• Guaranteed or fixed returns ("2% a month", "no-loss strategy"). No registered adviser can promise this.
• Profit sharing ("pay us 30% of profits"). Not a fee model SEBI allows for advisers or analysts.
• Money to a personal account or UPI instead of a registered company account with an invoice.
• Asking for your trading login, password or OTP so they can "trade for you".
• Tips over WhatsApp or Telegram groups with screenshots of big profits and pressure to join fast.
• No registration number on the website, messages and agreement — or a number that does not match this register.
• The email or phone does not match what SEBI lists. Impersonators copy the name of a real registered adviser.
• No written agreement, or fees far above the limits shown above.

If something has gone wrong

1. Stop paying and do not share any more login details or OTPs. Change your trading and email passwords.
2. Keep everything: chats, payment receipts, call logs, the registration number they quoted.
3. For a registered entity, file a complaint on SEBI SCORES.
4. For fraud by anyone, call the National Cyber Crime Helpline 1930 or report at cybercrime.gov.in.

This page searches a copy of SEBI's public registers taken on —. Registrations can be cancelled or suspended at any time, so always confirm on SEBI's website before you pay anyone. Being registered does not mean an adviser is good or that their advice suits you. NEOGreeks is an analytics and education platform, not a SEBI-registered adviser, and does not recommend any adviser listed here.
