India’s mutual fund industry is in the midst of a dramatic transformation. With assets under management climbing to new levels and investor participation broadening, the foundation of a financially aware society is slowly taking shape.
Yet beneath this growth lies a persistent challenge: too much choice and too little clarity. With over 50 fund houses and thousands of schemes, investors often feel overwhelmed. The abundance of choice, meant to empower, often leads to confusion.
This results in impulsive decisions, return-chasing behavior and portfolios without direction. For wealth creation to be effective, investors need a partner that simplifies complexity, instills discipline and builds a roadmap aligned with long-term goals.
This is precisely the gap that MINTIT, the flagship app of Mintbox Fintech, is set out to bridge. Unlike platforms that attempt to be marketplaces for every conceivable financial product, the app is unapologetically focused on one domain, which is mutual funds. This deliberate specialization is its strength.
By narrowing the scope, the firm eliminates the clutter and confusion that comes with the generic solution approach, instead creating an ecosystem where investors can make informed, purposeful and confident decisions.
Available on the Play Store and App Store, MINTIT combines the simplicity of a do-it-yourself platform with the assurance of guided investing. This makes it both accessible to first-time investors and valuable to seasoned ones.
Growth Fueled by Clarity & Confidence
At its core, the firm stands for structured, goal-oriented investing. It encourages users to begin not with “what to invest in” but with “why they are investing.” Whether the objective is buying a home, funding education, preparing for retirement , wealth creation or any short term requirement, the app translates life goals into clear financial strategies.
Users can assess their risk appetite, define their timelines and receive fund suggestions powered by a blend of artificial intelligence, proprietary algorithms and deep research. “This balance of technology and expertise helps demystify mutual funds by presenting them as the steady, long-term engines of wealth creation they truly are”, says Ajay Patwari, Co- Founder & Advisor, Mintbox Fintech.
The traction MINTIT has gained since its launch speaks volumes. Within just a few months, the app has crossed 20,000 downloads and built a base of more than 4,500 active users, spread across more than 350 pin codes from Andaman to Ladakh and Tripura to Saurashtra.
The fact that this reach has been achieved through word-of-mouth and a strategic marketing campaign reflects the trust it has earned. Equally significant is its financial performance. It turned revenue-positive within months of going live. This underscores both the viability of its model and the loyalty of its growing user community.

Leadership that Blends Expertise & Purpose
Much of this success can be attributed to the experience and vision of the team behind Mintbox. The leadership blends expertise across finance, business, and technology.
Ajay Patwari, Co-Founder of the company spearheads research with over 17 years in the industry, while Neha, a Chartered Accountant, serves as the firm’s CEO. Aniket Mane, a sales and marketing leader with nearly with 15+ years of experience and an IT expert with three decades in the field round out the core team.
Supported by customer service professionals, back-office team, and a dedicated technology unit, they ensure that MINTIT is not only robust in functionality but also responsive to the needs of its users.
Equally noteworthy is MINTIT’s origin story. Founded in Nagpur, the platform has grown to establish a pan- India presence, reflecting both its strong foundation and nationwide relevance and It is one of the first platforms of its kind in India.
For Central India, this represents more than just a business milestone; it stands as a source of pride. It demonstrates that world-class financial technology can be built outside the traditional innovation hubs, proving that ambition and execution matter more than geography.
The Road Ahead for Disciplined Investing
Looking ahead, MINTIT is poised to build on this foundation with even more advanced capabilities. The firm is working toward obtaining a Registered Investment Advisor license, which will allow it to expand from distribution into formal advisory.
Future iterations of the app will incorporate behavioral finance principles, personalized insights, and robo-advisory tools, making investing not only more intuitive but also deeply aligned with investor psychology.
With the industry expected to grow three to four times in the coming years, the firm is robustly positioning itself to ensure that its users do more than participate in this expansion—they thrive within it.
By combining focus with innovation, MINTIT has created a distinctive place for itself in India’s financial ecosystem. It appeals to investors who seek clarity over clutter, structure over speculation, and purpose over impulse. MINTIT is not just helping people manage money; it is reshaping how they think about wealth itself.
