Niranjan Avasthi — VP of Engineering

With over 19 years of experience in the financial services industry, I am a qualified Cost & Management Accountant (ICAI), with a Master of Commerce and a PGDMM—where I was a rank holder from Pune University. Currently, I lead Product, Marketing, PR, and Digital Business at Edelweiss Asset Management. Since joining in 2017, I’ve played a pivotal role in scaling the firm’s AUM from ₹6,000 crore to over ₹1,55,000 crore, propelling Edelweiss AMC from the 26th position to among the top 15 mutual fund houses in India. I led the conceptualization and launch of India’s first Bond ETF—BHARAT Bond ETF—in collaboration with the Government of India, pioneering the Target Maturity Fund category. I also forged India’s first-ever partnership with MSCI to launch innovative Index Funds. As a member of the AMFI ETF Committee and SEBI subgroups, I contribute actively to policy development and industry innovation. I am also the author of Mango Millionaire, a book that simplifies personal finance for everyday Indians, helping them take charge of their financial journeys. A passionate learner and voracious reader, I live by the philosophy: “Good is not enough; excellence is the goal.”
