If you wish to invest Rs 10 lakhs, then a PMS cannot meet your requirement. This is because a PMS has a minimum commitment of Rs 50 lakhs.
Portfolio Management Schemes involve taking custody of your cash and managing it on your behalf. In addition to the a minimum investment limit of Rs 50 lakhs, there is also a three year lock-in and a power of attorney requirement.
One alternative to consider would be an Equity Advisory[1] run by a SEBI Registered Investment Advisor who would not take custody of your cash or units. There is no power of attorney involved here.
You would get advice to invest in a suitable set of equities. They may also be flexible on the minimum investment.
Go for someone with a strong founding team, one who is not a market place of third party products and one who will not share your private data.
