Reportedly, the fees for his one-day workshop is around Rs 50000 and his mentorship programme costs around Rs 20 lakh. [5]Forbes Sundar was criticized by social media users for allegedly making more money through training rather than stock trading, which is his actual forte. In an interview, when asked about how he felt about recieving criticism for making money through training, Sundar said, Why does it matter? At the end of the day, all we have to do is to make money.

The money is coming from all legitimate means.” [6]The Economic Times • Received backlash for offensive comments
