Please see our website https://app.Qfinr.com to access the desktop version of the platform. Alternatively, you can download the apps from the Android or Apple App Stores.

Once you have the App loaded and working, then open the App by tapping on the logo on your phone screen. You will be prompted to set up your 4 digit Login Passcode. You will be prompted for biometric identifiers such as your fingerprint too. Please allow this too as it will make your App experience better. Now you are all set to go.

After your login, you will see a screen with a personalised greeting and a button saying Add Investments. Click on the button which will take you to the “Add New Portfolio” screen. Here you have three choices of which only two are enabled now. To enter your portfolio in bulk using the “Import from Excel” option or the “Add Manually” option which helps you add assets manually.

If you press the “Import from Excel” button, you will receive an email in your registered mail box with an excel template. Fill in the Excel Template as indicated and reply back on the email with the filled in Excel File saved and attached. Please do note that the system identifies each asset – stock, etf or fund – with a RIC. The database of the RICs are in a separate sheet on the same excel file.

If you click on the “Add Manually” button, the sequence of screens you will see are

=> Add New Portfolio > Add Securities > Search for the Security > Click on the Right Security > Add > Fill in Template > Save > Create > View Portfolio

Pro-Tips: Search for the security with the full name. For example, Reliance Industries is best searched under Reliance and not RIL.

This is a repeat of the point above. Careful.

There are a number of ways to upload your assets to the Qfinr Platform.

=> Save > Create > View Portfolio

We have also got some easy ways for you to enter equal-weighted or equal-shares portfolios.

  1. If you are simply interested in the forward analysis of your portfolio and are not really interested in the past, just enter the security and the number of units. We will automatically update price!]

Second, you can upload portfolios using the auto-load feature of the App. Qfinr supports multiple modes of loading securities. Please use the one that suits you best. Note: This feature works best on the desktop version of the App.

When you click on the Add New Portfolio button in the “Manage” module, you will see a screen with two banners – Import and Add Manually. Click on Import. You will see a page with a number of Options. The Options are Qfinr, Custodians, Brokers, Banks and Others. Let’s go through these one by one.
