Stop. Breathe.

If your wealth journey feels exciting, overwhelming, or urgent, something has drifted.

Wealth is best built slowly, patiently, and elegantly.

Considered financial planning and investment guidance for HNIs and emerging HNIs.

Pune · Established 2024 HNIs.in

01The Problem

The problem is no longer
lack of information.

Earlier, investors suffered because they had too little information.

Today, the problem is the opposite. You have more information than you can use well.

Every market move, every tax rule, every global event, every product launch, every social media voice, now competes for your attention.

Some want to excite you.
Some want to scare you.
Almost all want you to keep reacting.
You get one window in life to build wealth seriously. Wasting any part of it on trial and error is expensive.

02Financial Planning

Financial planning turns noise
into structure.

A good financial plan doesn't complicate your life. It simplifies the things that matter.

It gives every rupee a role. It connects today's decisions with tomorrow's goals.

It tells you what deserves attention, what can be ignored, and what should never be touched in panic.

At HNIs.in, planning comes before products.

The plan decides the instruments -
not the other way around.

- First principle of HNIs.in

03Who We Serve

Built for HNIs and
emerging HNIs.

HNI stands for High Net Worth Individual - typically referring to individuals and families with investible assets above ₹1 crore in India, or USD 1 million internationally.

We also work with emerging HNIs: professionals, business owners, families, NRIs, and retirees who want a more serious and structured approach to wealth.

HNIs

Established investors and families who need thoughtful capital allocation, tax-aware structuring, and calm long-term guidance.

Emerging HNIs

Professionals and earners building serious wealth who want to move from fragmented products to a coherent strategy.

Business Owners

Entrepreneurs who need personal finances to work alongside business cash flows, liquidity needs, and long-term compounding.

NRIs

Clients with cross-border complexity who value clear planning, portfolio discipline, and a steady India-based advisor.

Families

Households balancing education, retirement, protection, weddings, and other long-term goals without letting chaos drive decisions.

Retirees

Investors who want stability, dignity, and intelligent drawdown planning so capital serves life rather than creating anxiety.

In their words.

Portrait of Rutvik Thite

I work in the film industry. Siddhesh took the time to explain to me how the financial journey looks way different for different professions and then tailored the financial products to my journey. Now I get to focus on my art while my wealth compounds in the background.

After retiring, I was unsure how to manage my PF money for steady income and growth. HNIs.in provided a safe and smart SWP strategy, giving me higher returns than a bank FD while ensuring my capital keeps appreciating. Their expertise and guidance have given me peace of mind in retirement.

07Philosophy

Slow. Patient. Elegant.

The best financial lives are rarely built through constant excitement.

They are built through structure, patience, restraint, and repetition.

At HNIs.in, we believe serious investing should feel less like prediction and more like architecture.

Hand-drawn architectural financial plan with goals, allocations, and reserves

The blueprint clarifies priorities, defines the role of each part, and creates enough structure for patience to become practical.

Build the structure. Respect the process. Stay with the plan.

Wealth advisory is a craft, not a factory. A craftsman cannot serve everyone.

The number of clients must be limited so that attention remains real, judgment remains careful, and continuity is protected. At HNIs.in, this is intentional.

You work directly with Siddhesh.

The relationship is designed for continuity - not handoffs, not rotating relationship managers, not a new person every few months trying to understand your financial life from scratch. Either we can serve you with that level of continuity, or we should not take you on as a client. That is the standard.

08The Founder

Portrait of Siddhesh Patwardhan, founder of HNIs.in

An actuary-turned-financial advisor.

Siddhesh Patwardhan has 7 years of experience across India and Canada, advising on client assets of more than ₹120 crore.

He likes crunching numbers - but enjoys seeing their result in someone's life even more.

After years working at financial advisory firms across India and Canada, Siddhesh noticed a recurring problem: too many firms chase rapid scaling at the cost of genuine client focus.

HNIs.in was created as the opposite - a calm company. A selective financial planning studio built around continuity, thoughtful advice, and long-term client relationships.

Outside work, Siddhesh enjoys badminton and pickleball, and has a deep passion for literary fiction- his current favorites being East of Eden, 1984, and The Unbearable Lightness of Being.
