Alexander Varghese

Alex is the moral compass of PeakAlpha. No wonder he is our Chief Compliance Officer. Alex makes sure that PeakAlpha, as a SEBI registered company, is truly fiduciary, and always acting in the best interests of our customers.

Alex wears many hats at PeakAlpha. He heads the technology and customer advocate team. He strategizes and implements key initiatives. Alex is a terrific presenter and conducts financial literacy programs. And he is also a financial planner.

Sometimes his life gets crazy handling so many areas in the company, but we can’t figure out which one to knock off because he is so good at everything! Alex comes with 12 years’ experience in financial services and has an MBA from Ohio University. But the reason we love him to bits is because he is a terrific photographer and makes us all look way better than we actually are!



STEPS TO CHECK YOUR KYC STATUS:

  1. Visit www.cvlkra.com and click on KYC Inquiry
  2. Enter your 10-digit PAN and Captcha and click on Submit
  3. Your KYC Status will be displayed as ‘KYC Validated / KYC Registered / KYC On-Hold’

WHAT DOES EACH KYC STATUS IMPLY?

  • KYC VALIDATED
  • Relax! You have to do nothing at all!
  • Over 73% of investors are KYC Validated, you too are one of them.
  • You can do any transaction in any mutual fund, anytime.
  • KYC REGISTERED
  • You can continue making transactions (like Purchases, Redemptions, Switches, SIPs, etc.) in all your existing Mutual Fund investments
    without any hassle.
  • Only if you want to invest in a mutual fund where you don’t have any investment already, you will have to do your KYC once again.
  • You can get your KYC status changed to ‘KYC Validated’ by doing the KYC Update/ KYC Modification process using PAN and Aadhaar from
    XML, Digi-locker or M-Aadhaar.
  • The process to do this is simple, available on all Mutual Fund/RTA websites and takes few minutes to complete.
  • Once your KYC status changes to Validated you can invest in any Mutual Fund of your choice without any requirement of re-KYC.
  • KYC ON-HOLD/REJECTED
  • The KYC status on the Mutual Fund /RTA website, will show the reason for ‘KYC On-Hold’/Rejected status; it could be: Mobile or Email not
    validated / PAN is not linked with Aadhaar / Deficiency in the KYC documents, etc.
  • You simply have to remediate the reason for KYC On-Hold/Rejected by following the steps given on the Mutual Fund Website. Once your
    KYC status changes to Registered/Validated you will be all set to start transacting, as per the KYC status.
  • The steps to resolve any KYC issues are easy and can be done from the comfort of your home. In case of any difficulties, feel free to contact
    your intermediaries or KRAs office/ helpline (available on their website) for further assistance.
