A SEBI-ready website for your firm
We build your website with the disclosures SEBI asks RAs and IAs to show, to the accessibility standards in SEBI's digital accessibility circulars, and keep it current every month.
₹11,000 once to build, then ₹1,111/mo for hosting and upkeep, excl. GST.

The SEBI disclosures on every site
Your registration, shown the way SEBI asks
Your name as registered with SEBI, your INH or INA number, full address and phone numbers on every page, and SEBI's no-guarantee disclaimer, word for word in the RA or IA version (the IA one also names BSE enlistment). No SEBI logo anywhere, because SEBI does not allow it.
Investor charter, word for word
SEBI's investor charter for RAs or IAs, copied from the master circular without edits, on its own page and linked from the footer.
Monthly complaints table
The complaints table in SEBI's format, updated every month before the 7th from the figures you send us.
Grievance details and escalation
Your grievance officer and compliance officer with phone and email, the escalation steps, and links to SCORES and the Smart ODR portal.
Accessibility, built in
Built to WCAG 2.1 AA, GIGW and IS 17802
The three standards SEBI names. Every page works with a keyboard and a screen reader, with enough colour contrast, text that resizes and a layout that holds on a phone.
Accessibility statement and complaint channel
A page that states the standard the site follows, names your nodal officer for accessibility and gives an email and phone route for accessibility complaints, with escalation to a senior person.
Accessible documents and media
Your charter and disclosure PDFs are tagged with headings, reading order and alt text. Images get alt text and videos get captions. If you want Indian Sign Language on a video, you send us the ISL recording and we add it.
A conformance report for your auditor
Before launch we test every page with automated checks, a keyboard and a screen reader, and give you the report. Your IAAP-certified auditor starts from it instead of from scratch.
What is not included
- The IAAP audit itself. SEBI requires it to be done by an IAAP-certified accessibility professional, with usability testing by persons with disabilities. You appoint the auditor; we work with them and fix what they find on the pages we built.
- Filing with BSE. You submit your accessibility status and audit reports to BSE; we give you the URLs and the report to attach.
- Client onboarding and payments on the site. Those come with the Aktai Firm plan.
- Writing your research or marketing claims. Content you publish is yours to check against the advertisement code.
How it works
Step 1
Book and pay
Pay the ₹11,000 build fee and the first month on Stripe, or email us your brief and we invoice you. We then ask what you want on the site.
Step 2
We build and test
Up to 8 pages, including the disclosure and accessibility pages. You get a draft, ask for changes, and we run the accessibility tests before launch.
Step 3
Live on your domain
We point your domain at the site, host it, update the complaints table each month and change the disclosure text when SEBI changes a rule.
Website FAQ
Does this make my firm compliant with the SEBI accessibility circulars?
No website builder can promise that. SEBI makes the regulated firm responsible and requires an audit by an IAAP-certified professional. We build the site to the standards SEBI names, test it, and give you a report for your auditor. What the auditor finds on pages we built, we fix while you are subscribed.
I am already on an Aktai plan. Do I need this?
No. Every Aktai plan comes with a website we build and host free while you stay subscribed (up to 5 pages on Starter and Professional, a fuller site on Firm). Starter is ₹1,999/mo and also gives you the tools to publish research, onboard clients and keep your records. This page is for firms that want the website only.
Why not hire a freelancer?
A freelancer usually charges ₹15,000 to ₹40,000 for a simple site, and most do not know the SEBI display rules, the investor charter or the accessibility circulars. You would still have to check every page yourself and update the complaints table every month.
I already have a website. Can you just make it accessible?
Yes. Our accessibility check and fixes is ₹4,999 once: we test every page and fix up to 8 pages on a WordPress or static HTML site you give us edit access to.
How long does it take?
It depends on how quickly you send your content and answer the draft. We do not promise a date, and we will not launch a page that fails our accessibility tests.
Who owns the website?
Your content is yours. On cancellation we export it on request within 30 days. The code, design system and templates belong to Aktai Ltd, so the site goes offline when the subscription ends. The build fee is not refunded.
What does the monthly fee cover?
Hosting, SSL, the monthly complaints table, disclosure text changes when SEBI changes a rule, small text edits, and an accessibility re-test after every change we make.
Aktai is the software provider. You remain responsible for your compliance as the registered Research Analyst or Investment Adviser, including the accessibility audit and your reports to BSE. This is not legal advice.
