Testimonials
"Very useful platform for me in order to access US stock markets from India, and Nitish and his team make the onboarding process pretty seamless. Their offering of customised stock baskets for the US market is pretty unique - I'm a happy user and wish they grow from strength to strength!"
Anomitra Saha
Principal Engineer, Captainfresh (Bangalore)
"Craft matters. Paasa's experience is clean, but the real win is the rigor behind it; I needed clarity. Paasa delivered - FEMA guidance I could act on, onboarding that just worked, and portfolios that felt built for diversification of RSUs, not retrofitted. Disclosure: I'm an angel investor in Paasa."
Deepak Menon
Vice President, Microsoft (Hyderabad)
"Great interface and easy to use. Gives access to global portfolios better than any app. You can curate your own portfolios or choose from the vast number of portfolios they've made."
Maadhav Veer Singh
CIO, BTB Family Office (Gurgaon)
"The seamless fund withdrawals and dedicated advisory support make global investing accessible, affordable and trustworthy."
Navdeep Manaktala
Co-Founder, Snowbit (Gurgaon)
