Product-regulator comparison grid

Compare an investment product on regulation, issuer/credit risk, market risk, liquidity/exit, fees, taxation, custody/nomination and suitability—not only return. The relevant authority depends on the product: SEBI, RBI, IRDAI and PFRDA frameworks should not be blended.

Use current product-specific regulations/master circulars and show the source date.
Do not present “best”, “safe”, “guaranteed” or target-return language without a precise basis.
For market-linked products, separate historical performance from forward-looking scenarios.
For tax treatment, state the applicable financial/tax year and verify amendments before publishing numeric rates.

Securities source starting point: SEBI — Master Circulars.
