WealthUpp aims to achieve ten lakh subscribers in the next five years

Hyderabad, May 11, 2026: WealthUpp Fintech Solutions Pvt Ltd, a Hyderabad-based fintech company focused on automated mutual fund investing and AI-driven wealth management, today announced the launch of WEALTHUPP, a next-generation investment platform designed to make wealth creation accessible, simple, and affordable for every earning individual.

The platform was officially launched during a press conference held at FTCCI, Red Hills, Hyderabad.

Alongside the launch, the company also unveiled its broader “Wealth Literacy Movement”, an initiative aimed at promoting financial awareness, disciplined investing habits, and long-term wealth participation among ordinary Indians.

WEALTHUPP is a registered member of the Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI), the SEBI-regulated industry body for mutual funds in India.

The WealthUpp app is now available for download on app stores, enabling users to start investing with as little as ₹100. The platform encourages small but consistent investing habits to help individuals build long-term wealth.

The company revealed that it acquired over 1,000 subscribers during its test marketing phase and is now fully operational. WealthUpp aims to reach 10 lakh subscribers over the next five years.

India continues to face low retail investment participation despite growing awareness around financial planning. Industry estimates indicate that a vast majority of Indians still do not invest in mutual funds, while many salaried individuals delay investing because they believe substantial savings or financial expertise are required to begin.

WealthUpp seeks to bridge this gap by simplifying investing for first-time and small-ticket investors.

Founded by a team of financial technology professionals, including former Goldman Sachs technologist Ram Tulluri, WealthUpp aims to encourage disciplined investing through AI-driven guidance, simplified onboarding, and accessible mutual fund investment options.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr Ram Tulluri, CEO & MD, WealthUpp, said:

“Most Indians believe investing starts after becoming wealthy. We believe wealth is created by starting early — even with small amounts.”

He further added:

“India still has relatively low investment participation, with many salaried individuals postponing investing because they believe they need substantial savings or financial expertise to begin. WealthUpp aims to change this mindset by using technology to simplify financial decision-making and make investing more approachable for everyday people.”

Highlighting the role of technology, he said:

“AI-driven guidance and simplified user experiences can help first-time investors overcome fear, confusion, and hesitation often associated with financial products. We are not just building an investment app. We are trying to build investing confidence among ordinary Indians.”

Mr Tulluri brings more than three decades of experience in financial software development, including at Goldman Sachs. He holds a B.Tech degree from IIT Madras and an M.S. degree from Clarkson University, USA.

Addressing the media, Mr Ramakrishnan Venksteswaran, Advisory Board Member, WealthUpp, said:

“India doesn’t have a shortage of earners. It has a shortage of people who begin investing early. Many people still believe wealth creation is only for those who already have ‘big money.’ We want to change that mindset.”

He described WealthUpp as more than a fintech product launch and called it a larger social initiative focused on financial inclusion and wealth awareness.

“More than a product launch, this is part of our broader vision to build a ‘Wealth Literacy Movement’ focused on financial awareness, inclusion, and long-term wealth confidence. Wealth creation should not be limited to a privileged few.”

The platform has been designed specifically for salaried individuals, young earners, first-time investors, and small savers who often hesitate to begin investing due to complexity, fear, or misconceptions around wealth management.

WealthUpp believes technology and AI can play a transformative role in democratising access to wealth creation by helping ordinary citizens develop disciplined, long-term investment habits.

During the event, the company also shared early investor success stories from users on the platform. A gardener from Uttar Pradesh has reportedly been investing ₹200 per day over the past year, building a portfolio currently valued at ₹1,15,000 against investments of ₹1,09,285. Another investor, Gayari, an HR professional, invests ₹5,000 per month and has set a long-term wealth target of ₹2 crore over the next 20 years.
