Nagpur Branch of WIRC of ICAI under the aegis of Investor Education and Protection fund (IEPF) of Ministry of Corporate Affairs of Government of India hosted a very informative session for equity investors titled as “Nivesh Pathshala – Significance of Fundamental & Technical Analysis in Equity Investing” wherein more than 150 people of investor fraternity attended and made themselves aware of the key nitty- gritties of investing in equities.
“Use Common Sense before investing”, said Girish Vyas, Member of the Legislative Council of Government of Maharashtra while inaugurating this Nivesh Pathshala. He remarked that an investment is usually made out of lot of small savings by general public and everyone wishes to get the maximum return in the minimum possible time and that’s the reason people get trapped in dubious schemes.
Vyas addressed the investor community by saying that when it comes to investment, an investor should not get lured by hefty returns offered by Ponzi Schemes, rather before investing, an investor should try to understand the various investment alternatives and appraise them with the help of an expert like Chartered Accountant.
He further added that a country’s economy is measured by its financial stability depicted by various macro-economic data. The Current Government is making all efforts and leaving no stone unturned to work for welfare and up-liftment of downtrodden. The vision of Hon’ Prime Minister of “Sabka Sath Sabka Vishwas” by removing intermediaries between the Government schemes and the ultimate beneficiaries will go a long way in creating an atmosphere of trust and service commitment, Vyas said.
