Sebi chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch stated that the capital markets regulator aims to sachetise mutual fund investments, similar to Hindustan Lever's shampoo sachets. The mutual fund industry finds investments of Rs 500 per month viable, but Rs 250 not. Sebi is working with the industry to lower the cost and make Rs 250 a month viable. Buch believes that sachetisation will aid financial inclusion and the Indian capital markets. She also emphasized the importance of employing women.
