Before subscribing to any stock advisory service in India, you must verify their SEBI registration. This takes 60 seconds and can save you from losing money to illegal, unaccountable tipsters.
Step 1: Go to the official SEBI website. Open sebi.gov.in in your browser. Do not use third-party websites claiming to verify SEBI registrations — only the official SEBI portal is authoritative.
Step 2: Navigate to Registered Intermediaries. On the SEBI homepage, click "Registered Intermediaries" or navigate directly to the Research Analyst search page at sebi.gov.in/sebiweb/other/OtherAction.do?doRecognisedFpi=yes&intmId=14
Step 3: Enter the registration number. In the search field, enter "INH000026266" (for Sahib Singh Hora / withSahib.com) or any other registration number you want to verify. Click Search.
Step 4: Read the results. A valid registration will show: Registration number, Name of analyst/entity, Registration type (Individual RA), Registration date, Validity period, and Status (Active/Suspended/Cancelled). For INH000026266 you will see: Sahib Singh Hora, Active, Valid Apr 2026 – Apr 2031.
Step 5: Cross-verify with the service. The name and entity shown on SEBI's portal must match exactly what appears on the research service's website, reports, and communications. If there is any discrepancy — wrong name or registration doesn't show up — do not subscribe.
Red flags: (1) No SEBI registration number anywhere on the website. (2) Registration number returns no results or shows "Cancelled/Suspended". (3) Using "SEBI compliant" or "approved by SEBI" without an actual registration number. (4) Claiming to be a "financial advisor" without individual names and SEBI numbers.
