One of the biggest changes after COVID has been the sharp rise in the number of women investors.
Before COVID, women accounted for roughly 15–17% of all Zerodha accounts. Today, that number is over 30%. Across markets, that number is around 23%.
That's millions more women investing for the first time across!
Of course, some of these accounts are still managed by the men in the family. However, it's encouraging to see more women from all walks of life taking control of their finances.
We've been running In Her Interest, a women-only initiative to help women learn how to take control of their money. It's an offline, in-person meetup across cities, and the response has been incredible. The turnout, engagement, and quality of conversations have been incredible.
India still has a long way to go when it comes to improving financial literacy among women, but things are changing slowly.
Stock markets don’t lie. CAGR exposes the truth.
2002 → 2014
🟢 Sensex: ~25–26% CAGR
🟢 Nifty: ~18–19% CAGR
2014 → 2026
🔴 Sensex: ~10–11% CAGR
🔴 Nifty: ~9–10% CAGR
After nonstop PR, slogans, and self-congratulations, this is the outcome? A massive slowdown, a wasted 12 years for India, and a lost economic opportunity.
It seems they are celebrating propaganda, drama, corruption instead of Governance.
@venom1s Everyone has a say about the portrayal of women in films.
Why is noone talking about the portrayal of women as sexual objects of desire and lust in their own instagram accounts ?
No director is asking them to put those pictures in their profiles, so what about it?

@anuragkashyap72 I think over the board nobody is interested in either reviewing or watching the film.. even pirates are not interested in pirating your film in torrent.. such a sad state for a director for whom I was a diehard fan of.. #Bandar#ugly#ramanraghav#DevD
@AnnaNamasthe@KVishReddy@revanth_anumula Why was it not constructed in the previous tenure ?
BRS party delayed metro operations from 2014 until late 2018 for political mileage. From 2018 till 2023 why 2nd phase metro was not constructed?
🚨🚨The Reality of Bollywood 🚨🚨
- Ratna Pathak Shah brings up a thought-provoking perspective on objectification in Indian cinema. 🧐
-She argues that today's actresses have the freedom to say 'no' because many are financially independent.
- She believes actresses should not feel compelled to take on roles that reduce them to mere "objects of lust".
- She contrasts this with the struggles of past actors like Silk Smitha, whose families were financially dependent on their work, leaving them with fewer choices.
-Do you think actresses should take on roles that objectify them?
Is Ratna Pathak Shah's take on this issue fair??🤔
-Do you agree with her??
More than half the Indian AI/consumer startups I meet are quietly running on Chinese open weights - DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi. Nobody puts it in the pitch deck.
The math forces the choice. DeepSeek's flagship reasoning model ships output at $3.5 per million tokens. Claude and GPT charge $25–30 for the same tier. That's a 90% price cut, frontier model to frontier model - before you even get to the free, self-hostable open weights.
We keep saying "Atmanirbhar Bharat" on stage while our founders build on China's models in private.
The technology and cost gap is real - we need to go from customers to challengers.
Cristiano Ronaldo is 41 years old, yet he:
• Maintains 7% body fat
• Has a biological age of 28.9
• Walks 17,000 steps daily
He's playing elite football in his 40s when most retire at 35.
Here's how he did it (& what you can steal from his approach):
Physical Relationships before marriage are not a black mark : Supreme Court
In 2014, Gajula Thirupathi from Telangana had one big dream: he wanted to become a police officer. But that same year, a personal problem almost ruined his future.
Thirupathi was in a relationship with a woman from his neighborhood.
When the relationship broke up and they did not get married, things turned sour. The woman filed a police complaint against him for cheating and threats, claiming he broke his promise to marry her.
There were no allegations of sexual assault. Within a year, both sides decided to move on. In 2015, they went to a Lok Adalat, settled the matter peacefully, and closed the case.
Years later, the Telangana police announced jobs for constables. Thirupathi applied, passed the tough exams, and was selected for the job.
When filling out his background check forms, he stayed completely honest. He wrote down everything about the 2014 case and how it was settled.
He had no criminal record, had never been convicted, and the issue had been over for nearly ten years.
However, the Police Recruitment Board took a very strict view. They cancelled his selection. The Board argued that police officers must have a clean character. They claimed that because the case ended in a compromise instead of a full trial, it meant he was guilty. To them, a broken promise of marriage showed bad moral character.
Thirupathi did not give up. He took the Board to the Telangana High Court. The first judge ruled in his favor and told the Board to give him the job. But the Board appealed, and a higher bench of judges reversed the decision, saying the government has the final right to choose who is fit to join the police.
With his dream in danger, Thirupathi appealed to the Supreme Court of India.
The Supreme Court bench, consisting of Justice Manoj Misra and Justice Manmohan, looked at the case and strongly criticized the Recruitment Board's decision.
First, the Court said that settling a case does not mean a person is guilty. They called the Board's logic unfair, explaining that settling a dispute in a Lok Adalat is a proper legal method, not an admission of a crime.
Second, the judges stated that the Board was out of touch with modern society. They noted that relationships before marriage between consenting adults are common today.
The Court said hiring authorities must understand these social changes; just because a relationship ends without marriage does not mean a candidate has bad character.
Finally, the Court emphasized that while employers have the right to choose their staff, they cannot make biased or unfair decisions.
Since the woman had dropped the case a decade ago, there was no proof at all that Thirupathi had cheated or broken the law.
Supreme Court cleared Thirupathi’s name and ordered that he get his job back. The ruling made it clear that a person's past relationship cannot be used by the government to deny them a career.
