Guru Charan Rout
Guru Charan Rout, a trusted financial professional from Bhubaneswar, has built a strong reputation over two decades for his client-first approach. Beginning his journey with LIC in 1997, he achieved major milestones, including the direct Chairman’s Club in 2001 and MDRT in 2006, serving over 2,000 families. His career took a decisive turn in 2017 when he entered the mutual fund industry through NJ Wealth. After initially evaluating market risks, he fully adopted the NJ platform in 2018, crediting its training, technology and operational support for accelerating his growth.
During the COVID-19 crisis, NJ Wealth’s continuous guidance enabled him to reassure investors, encourage increased SIP contributions, and help clients stay focused on long-term wealth building. Today, he facilitates ₹33 crore in AUM with a ₹40 lakh monthly SIP book and expects to cross ₹100 crore soon. With NJ Wealth’s robust digital ecosystem and research, he continues to empower individuals with disciplined, need-based investing.
Farhad Mogal
Farhad Mogal’s shift from corporate finance to financial entrepreneurship has become a remarkable success story. Beginning his career in 2003 with Prudential PLC in Mumbai, he later worked with Lehman Brothers and Nomura, all while nurturing a strong interest in personal finance. His turning point came in 2011 after he met Marzi Kerawala of NJ Wealth, whose guidance inspired him to explore financial product distribution. Initially balancing NJ part-time alongside his corporate role, Farhad made a decisive move in 2014 - resigning from Nomura, with his wife’s support, to pursue mutual fund distribution full-time.
Today, as an NJ Wealth partner, he facilitates ₹280 crore in AUM, a ₹1.45 crore monthly SIP book, and serves 380 families across India and abroad. Beyond mutual fund distribution, he takes pride in supporting families during crises, having settled 35 - 40 insurance claims. Farhad credits NJ Wealth’s technology, training, and strategic support for his growth, calling financial distribution a noble, client-centric profession.
Nitin Jadhav
Nitin Jadhav’s journey from a sugar factory employee to a respected NJ Wealth partner exemplifies determination and financial empowerment. After completing his B.Sc. in Pune, he worked in a sugar cane factory earning ₹1,100 a month until an LIC agent inspired him to pursue insurance in 1994. By 2005, his LIC commissions reached ₹25 lakh annually, enabling him to move full-time into financial services. His breakthrough came in 2007 when NJ Wealth opened its Nasik office. With NJ’s training, technology, and on-ground support, Nitin began educating rural investors - many without PAN cards or bank accounts. He facilitated thousands of account openings between 2007 and 2012, laying the foundation for mutual fund awareness in the region.
Today, he facilitates ₹200 crore in AUM, a monthly SIP book of ₹1.40 crore, and serves 2,100 clients. Supported by his wife and son in the business, Nitin continues to guide families toward long-term financial security and disciplined wealth building.
Sagar Padol
Sagar Padol’s journey from a Nashik-based engineering student to a respected mutual fund distributor showcases resilience, discipline, and client-first leadership. Facilitating ₹120 crore in AUM, a ₹70 lakh monthly SIP book, and over 1,300 clients, he has built one of the region’s most trusted Financial services practices. Inspired early by observing his father’s work in LIC, Sagar entered the mutual fund industry in 2008 through NJ Wealth, balancing academics with an emerging career.
The initial years were challenging, with limited awareness and the 2008 market downturn testing investor confidence. Through door-to-door outreach, educational sessions, and a focus on long-term investing, Sagar gradually built trust in a conservative market. Supported by NJ Wealth’s advanced technology and strong backend ecosystem, his team has expanded to 12 members, ensuring seamless client service.
Emphasising patience, discipline, and consistent guidance, Sagar now serves clients across India and abroad, demonstrating how vision, teamwork, and client-centricity create enduring financial impact.
