Press Release No. 1

Investor awareness drive on Delhi Metro

 

After launching an investor awareness initiative, on board 4 Rajdhani trains to different parts of the country, the National Stock exchange has started a similar drive on the Delhi metro, to coincide with the Commonwealth games.

 

Nearly 50% of Delhi’s commuters are using the Delhi metro during the games and this drive is an attempt to reach out to travelers, who may not be familiar with investing money at all.

 

So, the panels inside the coaches are much simpler ( than the Rajdhani campaign) and give advice on the precautions a first time investor should take, before getting initiated into investing.

 

The routes on which the campaign has been started includes the Dilshad garden to Rithala route, Jahangirpuri in West East Delhi to Huda city centre and Dwarka in West Delhi to Noida or Anand Vihar in East Delhi.

 

These routes cover 99% of the Delhi metro commuters.

 

There are nearly 60 panels inside the coaches, in each of these trains. Some of the panels read like this: the right investment begins with the right investment or it’s smart to save, smarter to invest. Another panel says make investing a habit, bit by bit.

 

 Compared to the other regions, the number of investors in the Northern sector is the second highest in the country. But it has been observed that many people remain out of the financial system, because they are not aware of the right way of investing. This initiative will guide them to take wise decisions.

 

Joint Managing Director, Chitra Ramkrishna says:

 

‘As commuting by road is becoming more and more difficult, Delhiites are increasingly choosing the metro to commute. We want to address the large audience out there and take them through the basics of investing, to help them grow their money, by taking the right investing decisions. We thought the games was the right time to start’’

 

Of the 30 lakh commuters in Delhi, 10 lakh people use the Delhi metro to reach their destinations. Of these nearly 99% of the commuters will be using the routes on which NSE has started the initiative.
