Stayvan is the practice of Dipen Shah — a SEBI Registered Research Analyst based in Navi Mumbai, providing research advisory across equity, commodity and currency segments.

01 —About Dipen Shah

A decade of market experience, framed by SEBI's Research Analyst regulations and a discipline of independent research.

Background

Dipen Shah holds a Post Graduate Diploma in Wealth Management from the MIT Institute, Pune. He has over a decade of experience in technical analysis and research across equities, commodities and currencies, and is registered with SEBI as a Research Analyst (INH000006077) since June 2018, enlisted with BSE as the Research Analyst Administration and Supervisory Body (RAASB).

Mission

To deliver objective, well-researched recommendations that help clients make their own informed decisions. Stayvan does not execute trades on behalf of clients and does not offer assured or guaranteed returns of any kind — research is provided strictly within the framework of SEBI's RA Regulations.

Principles we operate by

Integrity

We commit only to what we can deliver, and we name conflicts of interest the moment they arise.

Excellence

Research is reviewed and revised continuously. Good is never the finish line.

Education

We share reasoning, not just signals — clients should understand why a recommendation exists.

Communication

Issues, concerns and changes are surfaced early and in writing.

Balance

Sustainable outcomes for clients matter more than short-term performance.
