With more time and flexibility, thousands of women are trading in the stock market for the first time.

Ritika Shah, 36, comes from a family that has long invested in the stock market but she had never done so - until this year.

Mr Khoday says women are typically more "inclined to invest than trade". That is, they buy traditional assets such as gold or park money in safe place such as fixed deposits and, more recently, tax-saving mutual funds.The lockdown also turned out to be a good time to enter the market. Ms Shah, for instance, says the valuation for the market in March was a deciding factor.

The biggest encouragement came from market regulator SEBI, which eased the process of opening a demat account. It also allowed the e-signatures and digital lockers so paperwork can be processed fast and from within the confines of home during the pandemic.

‘Share of women on India’s stock market’.... seriously, what the f**k are you talking about? I pay a licence for this nonsense!!!’what a lot of pi!sh

More gamblers to have their inexperienced bets 'stolen by the corporates ... An impartial BBC would have looked at the true data rather than implying this was proof of successful women investors ...

I really want to know who is writing these bizarre headlines.
