Mudrex CEO says tokenisation could improve access to investments
Edul Patel, Mudrex’s CEO, says tokenisation could change how investments are traded.
It means recording assets such as bonds, property or gold on a shared digital ledger.
Patel says a common ledger could make bond pricing more transparent and trading easier, rather than splitting activity across separate platforms.
Some tokenised assets are already available, but Indian real estate and equities are not.
Their regulatory pathway is still evolving, Patel said.
He says regulation and enforcement are essential to investor trust, especially when people need confidence in an asset’s ownership and protections.
Patel argues that tokenisation could make investing more accessible and support diversification, but wider use depends on regulatory progress.
Mudrex chief executive Edul Patel said tokenisation could make investments more accessible, liquid and cheaper.
He described tokenisation as recording assets such as bonds, real estate and gold on a shared digital ledger.
Patel said a common ledger could reduce fragmented bond markets and improve pricing transparency.
He said tokenised real estate and Indian equities are not currently available because their regulatory pathway is still evolving.
Patel said regulation and enforcement are important to building trust in tokenised assets.

What people are saying
The promise of tokenisation is that all of this coordination, where different sellers are selling can happen on a single common ledger, just like how equities in the country get traded on a common, single ledger in the format of an exchange.
Today, you can’t do tokenised real estate or tokenised Indian equities because the regulatory pathway is still evolving.
In India, trust in an asset comes from the regulatory umbrella and the regulatory coverage around it.
