Learn the Indian stock market
Concept-first lessons. Start with the foundations, move into the two main analytical lenses (technical and fundamental), then explore the practical topics that come up once you start investing in India. Each lesson stays general — we deliberately do not recommend specific securities.
Foundations
1 · Stock market basics
Shares, NSE/BSE/SEBI, indices, order types, T+1 settlement, demat & broker accounts.
2 · Mutual funds & ETFs
SIPs, AMCs, expense ratio, SEBI fund categories, active vs passive, ETFs and index funds.
3 · IPOs explained
DRHP/RHP, book-building, anchor investors, allotment, listing day mechanics.
The two analytical lenses
Technical analysis
Candlesticks, trend & support/resistance, moving averages, RSI/MACD/Bollinger, volume, common patterns.
Fundamental analysis
Reading an annual report, P&L vs balance sheet vs cash flow, key ratios, qualitative factors.
Practical & mindset
Risk management basics
Position sizing, diversification, drawdowns, the difference between risk capacity and risk tolerance.
Indian equity taxation
STCG, LTCG (with grandfathering), STT, dividend tax, buybacks. Plain-English overview, not tax advice.
Behavioural biases
Loss aversion, anchoring, recency, herding — the cognitive traps that quietly hurt portfolios.
Glossary
