LEADERSHIP
The Architects of NextGroup
Every great institution is a reflection of the people who built it. At NextGroup, our leadership is not a boardroom concept — it is the daily reality of two founders who remain personally invested in the outcomes of every client we serve.
Jitender Singh Punia
FOUNDER & DIRECTOR, NEXTGROUP
There are advisors who tell you what to do with your money — and then there are people who have walked the same road, made the same mistakes, learned the hard lessons, and come back to guide others through them. Jitender Singh Punia is the latter.
With a career built at the intersection of finance, investment, and entrepreneurship, Jitender brings to NextGroup something that cannot be taught in a classroom: perspective earned through real experience. He leads the group’s strategic direction and remains personally involved in the mentorship of the Next Wealth Academy community.
“I did not build NextGroup to create a company. I built it to create a legacy — one where our clients’ children grow up in families that understand wealth, invest confidently, and build without fear.”
Abhijeet Punia
CO-FOUNDER & DIRECTOR, NEXTGROUP
Abhijeet Punia brings to NextGroup a rare combination of financial acumen, operational discipline, and a deep belief in the power of education to transform lives. Where Jitender carries the vision, Abhijeet carries the architecture.
His background spans financial services, business development, and client advisory. He leads the group’s operational excellence agenda and plays a central role in building NextGroup’s institutional relationships.
“The best investment you can ever make is not in a stock or a property. It is in understanding — understanding yourself, your goals, and how to build towards them with intention and patience.”
LEADERSHIP PHILOSOPHY
How We Lead
Lead with Education
We believe that the best clients are educated clients. Our leadership philosophy begins with sharing knowledge freely.
Lead with Integrity
We make promises we can keep, and we keep every promise we make. Our reputation is our most valuable asset.
Lead with Empathy
We remember what it feels like to be uncertain about the future. That empathy shapes every client interaction.
“NextGroup exists to ensure that financial empowerment is not a privilege of the few, but an achievable reality for every individual and business willing to take their future seriously.”
— Jitender Singh Punia & Abhijeet Punia, Founders, NextGroup
COMPANY CULTURE
The NextGroup Way
We prioritise client education over client dependence.
We celebrate long-term relationships over short-term sales.
We invest in our team’s expertise so our clients receive only the best guidance.
We communicate with transparency — including when the answer is ‘not yet’ or ‘this is not right for you.’
We hold ourselves to the same financial standards we recommend to our clients.
A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDERS
To every individual reading this — whether you are a first-time investor, an established entrepreneur, or someone who simply wants their money to do more: we built NextGroup for you.
We know that the world of finance can feel complex, opaque, and intimidating. We understand that weight — and we take it seriously.
NextGroup is our commitment to walk this journey with you — with expertise, with honesty, and with a genuine belief that your success is our success.
