We recommend reading this chapter on Varsity to learn more and understand the concepts in-depth.
Key takeaways from this chapter
- Risk and Return go hand in hand. Higher the risk, the higher the Return. Lower the risk; lower is the Return.
- Invest in securing your future
- The corpus you intend to build at the end of the defined period is sensitive to the return rate the investment generates. A slight variation in rate can have a significant impact on the corpus.
- Choose an instrument that best suits your risk and return appetite.
- Equity should be a part of your investment if you want to beat inflation in the long run.

Very well explained and useful
Happy learning, Manjunath!
MAKE ALL THE VIDEOS IN HINDI ALSO
Such a excellent work knowledge sharing is the best for those who are new in share market.
Hey Karthik,
These are really very good information, for those who wants to understand equity system from scratch. Also Can I know if you’re available for the personal investment consultation? If yes, please let me know how i can reach out to you.
Thanks, Mahesh! No personal consultation though 🙂
Can you please provide key takeaways outside the video. Because, at the end of the video youtube suggests the next videos and there is the logo of varsity youtube channel.
It would be really helpful and easy to read.
Thank you 🙂
Yup, we are working on this, Laxman 🙂
Great work as always! The content on Varsity was as it is a great place to go and learn. I remember back in ’15-’16 when I would go on Varsity to brush up on topics I had learned previously but had long forgotten. Now, the newly added video series to each module is a welcome move as it would make certain difficult topics a lot easier to comprehend for learners.
@Karthik Rangappa: Minor issue I noticed – The Varsity logo and the prompt for the next video, visible towards the end, is blocking the ‘Key takeaways’ section.
Thanks for the kind words, Anirudh. Yup, we are aware of that. Working on it 🙂
I am a type of person who loves to listen than self learning. Thank you so much for making such a great video. It helps people like me to learn. Zerodha is stepping more advance to make their customers to feel better. The way of explaining with drawings and images makes me to understand deeper and even children can learn about stock market more effectively. I saw the videos only by searching in YouTube. My request to zerodha, please send notification about this versity video series to all your customers. You are making a great work but I didn’t get any notifications related to this great work. This may help all investors to learn wisely.
Thanks for the kind words, Suraji. For now you can subscribe to the youtube channel. But yes, we will do an email campaign to inform all.
The Video says “Download Excel File from the description”. But I could not do it from the description. Please guide me. Thanks & regards.
Checking on this.
Sir, when will the videos on F&O be uploaded?
It will take another 3-4 weeks, Rajeev.
Great effort to present complex need for investments in simple terms.. enhancing investors knowledge..impresive
Happy learning 🙂
I have got a clear conception about the three asset classes through this video. It will further help us if you write the key notes of discussion in the video description. Thanks for your support.
Noted, Bikash.
Hey thanks Zerodha for the informative videos…. just 1 suggestion : In Key takeaways section we won’t be able to read due to Zerodha logo and next video add. Anyways thanks for this L&D section.
Thanks, Manu. We are working on it.
I must confess that the present generation of investors are much more smarter and more knowledgeable than when I first put my hard earned Rs 500-/ into an IPO in the year 1987. I grew to a good corpus of around 5 lacs by 1994 and lost 80% in Harshad scam and again lost some money in 1997-98 bear scam and exit from market, because at that time nothing like your varsity content available.
Zerodha has initiated confidence in people like me for investing ( I have one Zerodha account opend in Oct 21) even at this age of 65.
Thank u Zerodha.
Very happy to note that, Aswini and thanks for the kind words! Happy learning and I hope the markets will behave well this time 🙂
good
Thank you for Videos

ZERODHA…YOUR COMMITMENTS TO YOUR CUSTOMERS ALWAYS WOULD PAY YOU BACK….
Happy learning!
It’s very useful to ,,,
Hi, thanks …
Understood the concept like the alphabets… i must appreciate the efforts to spread awareness
In the excel sheet how 12% over 2,40,000 is 2,067,063 .Please rectify it.
Checking this.
Could you please explain how 12% of 2,40,000 is 2,067,063?
Its basically your investments growing at 12% and not 12% of the investments itself.
Okay understood but the formula in the excel gives a different answer right.
240000*(1+12/100)*(20-1)=5107200.Please correct me if I am wrong
Yes, not sure why you are getting a different answer.
Please Make all Videos in Hindi Language. Because Hindi is National Language, all Indians Peoples Easy to Understand in Hindi.
Awesome initiative by Zerodha Varsity. Financial Education is must for everyone which is mostly missed out in our Indian Education System from school days. You fill that gap ! I am happy for what you do !
Thanks so much, Niladri! Glad you liked the content. Happy reading 🙂
Hello! I am just starting out, do not have the Zerodha account, as I first thought of learning it out. I am bit confused about how the Varsity App and Website works.
App : As I logged into the App via google to the App, and it doesn’t have the Video Series and also the Normal Text Modules are arranged quite differently when we compare App vs Website.
Website : It has Video series but I’m unable find a way to login here to save progress, like in App.
Its the same content actually. We will introduce the video content on app soon 🙂
V useful n full of financial wisdom. Now I am going to study here atleast an hour or so daily for enhancing my financial skills. Hats off to Zerodha for this series.
Thank u
Happy learning, Manish 🙂

Anand, there is a chapter on how to build an MF portfolio. Please check that, and that will give you a quick perspective.

Hi Zerodha Team,
What Is Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI)?
How different it is from regular demat account ?
Is there any separate account for trading stock on this
Pls clarify.
FPI is for foreigners who want to invest in India.
How i will buy share?
I donot see any option.
You will have to log into a trading terminal for this by opening an broking account with a stock broker.
I must say it was an eye-opening experience. As someone new to the world of trading, I found the content well-structured and easy to follow.
The course covers essential topics, including technical analysis, risk management, and trading psychology. It’s a great starting point for beginners.
The instructors were knowledgeable and passionate about trading. Their real-world examples made complex concepts relatable.
Thanks to Mr Prateek Singh to such a wonderful and explanatory classes.
Thanks for the kind words, Felix. I’m glad you liked our content 🙂
Option trading information
And strategies required place
Options chain how that work.
Check this – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mO0YOTcCiQ&list=PLX2SHiKfualFiusiT9G5uE9jU3vetvW2x , hopefully that will help.
I want to invest
Sure, please do. Wishing you the best!
I wish this had been introduced 10 years ago – I would have felt much more confident about my financial investments.
I hope this kind of knowledge is incorporated into mainstream syllabus in schools and colleges, as it would help build greater financial confidence and independence.
It is never too late, Arun. Happy learning 🙂
Hey,
thank you so much for this series of video content for beginners ….. Tell m know one thing with this course will i be able to do trades on my own and get somm good enough of profits…
