Women, in India, are not in the habit of investing. Those who are married typically leave all the investing and financial planning to their spouses. Of course, there is a small percentage of women who are becoming financially savvy and this trend is growing with more and more women joining the corporate workforce with the aim of becoming financially independent. There are also those women who are single mothers. Typically, these women do not make it a practice to invest, either out of fear or a lack of confidence. Many women do not know how to invest their capital and the channels of investment they should use. They often fear the risks involved and the potential losses they may face as single mothers with no spouse to depend on.
