About Us

Dhanayush Capital Services Private Limited is primarily an SEBI Registered Investment Adviser and AMFI-registered Mutual Fund Distributor (ARN-94353) since Feb 24, 2014, and also distributes other investment products either directly or through its associates.

At Dhanayush Capital Services Pvt Ltd, we believe that money is deeply personal — it’s not just about wealth, but about well-being, choices, and the life you want to create.

Founded by Parag Telang and Kiran Telang, the company brings together over five decades of collective experience in helping individuals and families make confident, meaningful financial decisions.

Both founders share a passion for personal finance and a commitment to providing personalised, transparent, and meaningful financial solutions.

Our Journey

The roots of Dhanayush go back to 2006, when Kiran Telang began her independent consultancy in personal finance.

In 2007, she established ABT Capital Advisors, her proprietary firm dedicated to helping clients plan and manage their finances with clarity and discipline.

In 2014, Dhanayush Capital Services Pvt. Ltd. was founded by Parag and Kiran Telang as a natural extension of that journey — bringing together Kiran’s client base and experience under a broader platform designed to deliver comprehensive financial planning, advisory, and wealth management services.

Between 2014 and 2025, Kiran continued to practise as an individual SEBI-registered Investment Adviser, serving clients personally and building a strong reputation for trust and integrity.

In 2025, with Dhanayush Capital Services obtaining its own SEBI Investment Adviser registration, Kiran’s individual practice has been merged into the company, unifying all advisory activities under one entity to serve clients with even greater scale, structure, and continuity.

Our Philosophy

Investments

We believe in a “buy and hold” style of investing i.e. investing in actively managed fund or a stock and holding the same patiently for many years barring a fundamental change in the intrinsic attributes or value.

Under growth assets, we believe equity to be the top asset class for sustained long term wealth creation.

Debt

Debt can be both good and bad. The key defining factor is your capacity to service the interest vis-a-vis an opportunity to use that amount to meet other goals.

Life Insurance

Risk transfer through insurance can potentially reduce or eliminate the financial catastrophe a family might face due to death. We believe in buying term insurance and investing the rest.

Risk

Studies on behavioural aspects in finance point to the fact that people are generally not risk averse; they are loss averse. A detailed discussion on risk leads to people making informed choices.

When creating client portfolios we look at the risk required, risk tolerance and the risk capacity of the client to arrive at an optimal solution, where the terms have the following meanings:

Risk Required: The risk associated with the return required to achieve the client’s goals from the financial resources available.

Risk Tolerance: This is an inherent characteristic of an individual which defines his comfort level with the risk.

Risk Capacity: This is the risk that the client can afford to take.

Taxation

We believe in following the law in letter and spirit. We aim at building tax efficiency in our overall advice.

Wealth Creation

We believe in pursuing a rich life. Wealth creation is a part of richness in life. The pursuit of wealth should be in line with your core life values. We bring together these fundamental attributes to create an optimal framework for you to move towards a rich life. We use financial planning as a primary tool to help you achieve this goal.

Our Values

Integrity

We value personal and professional integrity. We seek to achieve our goals by being honest and transparent with our stakeholders. We seek to earn trust with every action. We are honest and unbiased when it comes to advising our clients. We will be quite categorical if a particular goal looks unachievable. We stand committed to looking for our client’s best interests.

Responsibility

We take ownership of our work. We appreciate the huge amount of trust our clients place in us in designing their financial lives. We value long term relationships and gratefully undertake the responsibility of hand-holding our clients in their financial journey towards achieving their goals.

Quality

We pledge to meet high standards of diligence in our services and delivery. We believe it is very important to follow a defined process to deliver solutions for our clients. We love what we are doing and we believe it shows in our work.
