Valura.ai, an AI-native investment platform, has made its debut in India by onboarding over 1,000 wealth advisors ahead of its official launch. The platform aims to manage a collective assets under management (AUM) pipeline exceeding ₹3,000 crore (approximately $360 million USD) over the next 12-18 months. Valura.ai provides access to more than 100,000 global securities, with client assets held in local custody within the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) regulations at GIFT City in Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. The onboarded network includes independent financial advisors, registered investment advisors, mutual fund distributors, and chartered accountants. The strong pre-launch response highlights the growing demand for a credible global investing infrastructure, especially as India's outbound investment surged by 67% to $41.6 billion USD in the fiscal year 2025, amid an 8% depreciation of the rupee against the US dollar over the past year. Priyesh Ranjan, CEO of Valura.ai, emphasized the platform's combination of AI-driven research, portfolio construction, and compliance automation.
