Time for India to get the investment game right!
But the question is, can they fulfil the investment needs of the current generation?Equities, mutual funds, and bonds are still frowned upon. More contemporary instruments like SGBs, InvITs, and REITs are alien to most investors.Many Indians are reluctant to explore these investment avenues. This risk-averse mindset, compounded by limited financial literacy, prevents individuals from venturing into equity markets. Instead of relying on tips or advice from others, young Indians should be encouraged to conduct their own research and make informed investment decisions in the equity markets. Platforms like StockGro have started simplifying this plunge into equity by offering easy educational resources and tools to practise risk-free in the financial markets.

Why it’s so hard to track the fashion industry’s emissions
Bean Inc. has also reported its direct emissions for years, but only recently calculated its full indirect emissions — and hasn’t reported them publicly. Of those, 11 reported emissions reductions over the period for which they disclosed data. Here, the industry is evolving quickly: A CDP review of 100 fashion companies with stated climate commitments found that 80% reported emissions last year, up from 40% in 2020. This is often the second- or third-largest source of emissions for fashion companies that disclose it. But the myriad solutions fashion companies are exploring to cut emissions have a ways to go before they can match it on efficacy.

Regulatory Risks, Investment Sentiment: India
During this time, large global investors, both portfolio investors as well as strategic investors have re-discovered India. They foresee more divestment of public sector enterprises, capitalising on the increased valuations seen alongside the growth of market indices. We believe that public spending on large infrastructure projects is likely to continue, with global capital placing larger bets on the market. Bain and Company’s 2024 Asia-Pacific Private Equity Report ranks India number one among emerging markets for investment opportunities. Global investors are refreshing India investment plans, and negotiating market entry, as they continue to make sense of the different central and state government dynamics, and wrap their heads around the diversity of the marketplace.
