At its core, what AGM cares about is the satisfaction of

astounding statistic for any organization just five years old

dissemination of knowledge to its recipients is the

revelation that 'high volatility equals to high opportunity'.

traders should avoid a highly volatile market. Investors,

who put their money in for long durations of time without

interfering with it much, should be proactive in high

volatility market scenarios.

GURUDATTA

Training Institute

Today, there is an extraordinary

amount of up-to-date and

relevant information on any

topic available, the access to it is

getting easier with each passing

moment. Thus, we can say that having

knowledge is not a problem, however,

what one decides to do with it is a

matter of question. Any amount of

knowledge is a waste if it is not put in

use.

To understand this, everyone must

know the value of knowledge they

possess. “Scientia potentia est,”or,

“knowledge is power” is a Latin

aphorism mostly attributed to

philosopher, Francis Bacon. One of the

reasons why having knowledge is

powerful is because, it is renewable

and it can be used to bring change or

empower others. In the book, Sapiens,

Yuval Noah Harari writes, “the best

test of knowledge is not whether

something is true but whether it

empowers people.”

Gurudatta Training Institute

understands this and endorses the value

of being knowledgeable and using that

knowledge to empower others. The

belief, ‘Outperform with knowledge’ is

central to this institute. It is one among

the best institutes that delivers

10 | November 2021 | www.theknowledgereview.com


knowledge required to make money in

all asset classes like; equity, currency,

commodity.

Tailoring a Unique Educational

Journey

Gurudatta Training Institute was

established in July 2019. It has a

comprehensive lesson strategy that

allows all its students to have an

inclusive knowledge about finance

management and stock market training.

Expert faculties, alumni, and students

of this institute form a community and

together cultivate a culture that

empowers and promotes learning. Let

us see in detail how the institute and its

community ensure that all its students

are well-educated and knowledgeable.

The institute conducts its lessons and

plans its lesson strategies using real

time data while all its training material

is always updated in real time. Backed

by industry expert faculties, the

institute aligns both theoretical and

practical approach to make learning

fun.

Furthermore, the institute also has a

close connection with its large alumni

11 | November 2021 | www.theknowledgereview.com


network, wherein the present students

are allowed to interact with them and

learn more about the industry.

Furthermore, upon graduating from

Gurudatta Institute, students are still

permitted to use the data, knowledge

and records, or any data that the

institute possesses.

Completing this student-centric

community of Gurudatta Training

Institute are its avant garde facilities.

The institute’s infrastructure is among

the best as it has high quality desk-tops

for using paid software and free

software, classrooms with central air

conditioning. The institute’s faulty has

15 years of teaching experience and

has trained more than 15000 students

till date.

Specializations at Gurudatta

Training Institute

Below mentioned are the courses that

the institute offers its students:

Investment Advisor – Expert

Along with these, the institute also

provides one year free mentorship

program. Very shortly, it is also

planning to start a new course – Trade

with GURU.

Holding the Torch of Knowledge

Having discussed about the

peculiarities of Gurudatta Training

Institute, it is important that we discuss

about the enabler behind this

comprehensive learning platform. The

driving force behind the institute’s

continued growth is Gurudatta G.

Dhanokar. He is an empanelled trainer

for NISM, a visiting faculty at BSE,

NSE and many other reputed MBA

Colleges. His 16 years of teaching

experience and 20 years of industry

experience has helped him acquire

profound knowledge about the subject

matter.

The Pandemic Dynamic

The global pandemic, coronavirus, has

not only threatened lives, but has

brought a massive standstill to

businesses, educational activities,

transportation, and so on. Keeping the

current situation in perspective,

Gurudatta Training Institute is

presently conducting weekend online

batches on a temporary basis.

The institute is offering various

benefits to the students. It is allowing

students to attend repeat classes for

revision. Gurudatta is supporting the

students on a daily basis for intraday to

short term, to weekly basis. It is also

offering support for medium term to

long term basis. The institute also

offers benefits to global students

hailing from different countries such as

Australia, Dubai, London, and USA.

Gurudatta is also extending sessions on

technical analysis and derivative to use

it for equity in the Indian and US

markets, major global markets, all

major currency pairs, commodity

market, and cryptocurrency.

A Focus on Skill Enhancement

Gurudatta Training Institute focuses

more on offering short term courses

and is designed to enhance skills of

working professionals and young

students who wish to enter into the

industry. The institute’s prime goal

behind this is to develop a very strong

skillset in students that will allow them

to have a competitive benefit or stay at

par with working professionals.

That is one set of the students the

institute caters to. However, it also

educates students who want to work in

the financial sector. “Some student

comes with a plan to get job with skills

acquired and other comes with a plan

they should not need a job after they

acquire knowledge from us. We support

both types of students,” comments Mr.

Dhanokar.

We can safely say that with the world

constantly evolving, Gurudatta

Training Institute will continue its

foray by offering new and advanced

courses and will always be parallel

with industry trends.

The institute is connected with its

students and other prospects, and also

provide daily updates regarding the

market outlook through its Facebook

Page, Telegram Channel, blog, and

Twitter.

Importance of

Stock Market

Education

in

Today’s

Economic

Scenario

14 | November 2021 | www.theknowledgereview.com


Stock Talk

stock market is a place where the trading of

Aassets is conducted between buyers and sellers.

In the stock market, these assets are usually

shares of the companies, commodities, and currencies. In

today’s world, stock market is becoming an innovative

approach to investing in good companies and people are

looking at this market for transactions related to value

investment. This market has rewarded people with huge

returns, especially to those who have approached it with

patience and made the investments looking into the

fundamentals and focused on core points that are

necessary for value investment.

The stock market is open to everyone - from people

wearing suits to the young generation, creating a new

vision of the economy of our country as people are

learning how to invest and manage their money in the

early stage of their lives.

With the shares trading on different prices and when it

comes to the highlights of performance about any

specific company, people invest their money and can buy

shares of the specific company. This is the first and most

important aspect when it comes to the stock market

where people try to reach out few websites which display

genuine information that helps to study the fundamentals

of any company.

The role of the stock market is crucial, looking at the

factors of investment as there is no assured deal that the

traders will always be profitable. People have suffered

huge losses at times, when the markets crashed or if the

company misses out the resources and under-performs in

the financial year.

Even if there is any negative news about any specific

company, the shares price will eventually go down as the

people will start to sell off their holdings, generating a

15 | November 2021 | www.theknowledgereview.com


sell and creating a drop in the share price. If there is

economic development happening and there is a piece of

positive news about any company, it is the other way

around.

The link between stock market development and

economic activity has always been the subject of

considerable analysis in the field of economics and it

raises the practical question of whether stock market

development influences economic activity.

One of the biggest advantages of the stock market is that

it can be a source of business investment, e.g., firms

offering new shares to finance investment. This could

lead to more jobs and growth and sometimes a rising

stock market may indicate favourable economic

conditions for firms, resulting in higher profitability

which eventually displays financial stability.

When stock prices are touching the skies, many

businesses put in efforts to raise more capital

investments due to high market values. Many companies

are likely to issue an IPO during this time as market

optimism is high and it is a suitable time to raise capital

through the sale of shares. There are also more mergers

and acquisitions during a rise in the market and firms can

use the value of their stock to buy out other companies,

resulting in increasing the investments and feeding

greater economic growth. 2020 was an exceptionally

remarkable year for the extremes of the stock market and

economy.

The relationship between the stock market and our

economy might seem connected as our economy is

improving while the stock market remains strong and

stock exchanges are playing a crucial role in boosting the

economy.

This is an overview of how stock exchanges can and are

contributing to economic growth and sustainable

development. The key role of exchanges is to mobilise

resources to facilitate sustainable economic growth and

development. The mobilisation of finance is what

exchanges do and the existence of well-functioning

exchanges can therefore contribute to economic growth

and development.

The ability of exchanges to perform these roles is

dependent on the existence of a combination of relevant

policies, processes, and institutional structures. The exact

nature of these would vary across jurisdictions and build

on the identified roles. The suggested policy objectives

respectively are to promote policies and standards to

ensure transparency. Well-regulated markets enable

effective mobilisation of domestic and foreign resources

for investment in enterprise development, innovation,

and job creation.

These elements speak not only of enabling growth and

sustainable development, but also ensure the creation of

healthy, sustainable, transparent, and inclusive markets,

which maximise the benefits while minimising the

potential of negative impacts.

Understand these factors on which the markets operate.

One must focus on the market fundamentals on which

and how they function. Without proper knowledge and

just influential factors, the stock market can wipe out the

investor’s wealth if he/she is being reckless and

impatient.

The market has punished those who have made their

decisions carelessly, but with proper education, one can

avoid dealing with losses. Once a person starts learning

about the depth of the stock market, it is for sure that at

the point that person realizes that there is no single

strategy that would work every time and result in huge

profits. It is something that needs to be focused on

continuously, with observing the patterns of the charts

which indicate what and when to buy and sell. If the

observation, instincts, and study are staunchly correct,

that person can do wonders and make good investments,

keeping the markets on the rise and drastically

improving the economy.

“ ur aim is to provide stock market knowledge to

Omillions and to promote the importance of

important updates on various social media platforms.

The Journey

Sharemarketstudies was started on March 9, 2018, through

an Instagram page with the dream of helping people start

their stock market journey and to give them directions.

When it began operating, the company used to share basic

educational information to start the stock market journey.

Today Sharemarketstudies is a media-plus education

platform. The company has partnered with four brokers

throughout its journey, and it also acts as a sub-broker. “We

don’t just educate and spread financial awareness, but we

update (news) related to finance, business and especially

2020) and good engagement and strong influence.

Updating the Students’ Knowledge Continuously

The company always focuses on enhancing the knowledge

of the students and improving their academic performance.

With this perspective, it conducts quizzes and MCQs

frequently to check how students are learning. Team

Sharemarketstudies urges them to take their first step of

investing. It encourages them to go practical in the live

market to understand things more practically and resolve

their queries. As per the management, more the queries the

big investors along with various inspirational and

encouraging quotes.

book, which will focus on technical analysis.

The company also has a paid membership on Telegram.

analysis, educational/economical/financial data, company

news, daily e-newspapers, and much more.

Furthermore, it has planned to launch specially-focused

courses that will cover the respective topics’ deep study.

For example, the Fundamental Analysis course will cover

how we can analyse a company fundamentally.

Sharemarketstudies also provides the options of paid

promotions on its platform (as a media platform/influencer).

However, it only promotes high value and trustable relevant

brands and can help the students and audience.

Cheque should be drawn in favour of



COVID

OCK

MARKET

- Ashlesh Khadse

he world is perfectly balancing the upcoming and

Ttraditional trends. Each of them must survive for

the other to thrive. One might think that the world

is digitalized and everything else is just secondary.

However, the reality is much different than what one

experiences. When everything was brought to a sudden halt

during the COVID-19 pandemic in India, other than

people’s lives what was most affected was the Indian Stock

Market. Some things cannot be stopped because of a

pandemic; the economy and stock market are two such

things.

India saw two waves of COVID-19 and each wave hit the

market harder than ever. Few major industries like

hospitality, entertainment, travel, and tourism dropped by

more than 40%. This affected the nation’s economy and

stocks of those industrial companies fell drastically. Before

lockdown, both National Stock Exchange (NSE) and

Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) revived themselves and

were hitting their peak. After lockdown, both NSE and BSE

saw a dip in both NIFTY 50 and Sensex.

A Dip Greater than the Global Financial Crisis

Since the lockdown was imposed, not just in India, but

markets all around the world crashed with a dip it had never

witnessed before. The key to every market or commercial

activity, that is, transport was on hold, which made things

even harder for companies. Uncertainty in the market and

financial crunch across the industries were observed.

The Domino Effect

To understand a market, one must know that the market

depends on businesses and customers. Since the core

customer was locked in their houses, it was hard for

companies to find ways to target and reach them.

Despite the hurdles, companies came up with innovative

ways to reach their customers. Since, the micro, small and

medium scale industries were at an all-time low, the major

companies made the stock market hit an all-time

low.

The worst-hit industries

like hospitality, tourism

looked on the verge of collapse in

the market. These companies might

look independent but actually are

dependent on other industries. The domino

effect was in action and the market saw a dip in

other industries, making other companies from

different industries fall to either low or its all-time low. In

March 2020, the Indian Stock Market crashed six times in

almost 20 days. In March 2020, Sensex lost approximately

13,509.06 points.

The Constant Fall of Indian Stock Exchange Markets

The part about the stock market that everyone should know

is that it consists of two major players: Bear: The one who

makes a profit from the fall of company or market; Bull:

The one who makes a profit from the rise of company or

market. The ease of restrictions by the government allowed

the market to revive itself slowly but steadily, and the stock

market players were back in their game.

The market was in the phase of revival when the second

wave of COVID-19 hit the market. The stock market was

demanding revival and uncertainty rose with the emergence

of delta variant and the possibility of a third wave. This also

saw a drop in the traffic at Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust in

April, which was even lower than that of April 2020. Some

industries that were based on manpower really took a hit,

but the market was stable and ensured productivity in a

revival state without interruption.

Inflation and Rise of Indian Stock Market

Since COVID-19 had not only hit our lives but also the

markets in the worst possible way, the markets were opened

with precautions by the government. This presented the

opportunity for everyone to revive their bank balances

along with the revival of the market. Since people became

more focused on saving, what lurked around was inflation,

which increased the prices of goods and services in the

market.

Despite inflation, COVID-19 helped the Indians to

understand the working and basics of the Indian Stock

Market. This is because the stocks gave more return on

interest than reserved gold or real estate. This shift change

allowed common people to invest more in stocks rather

than other investment options. Since there was a swift

change in the behaviour of the consumer, the stock market

rose.

The Indian stock market recently saw some of its

companies hitting an all-time high. Along with that, the

focus of Indians also helped enhance the market and make

it stronger. In September 2021, the Indian Stock Market

overtook France for the first time to become the sixthlargest

stock market.

New Companies Entering the Stock Market

It is always during the tough time when the world sees

some of the most interesting and profitable business

ventures. However, this year has brought good news for

many companies. During the first nine months of 2021,

more than 72 IPOs (Initial Public Offering) hit the stock

market. By the end of 2021, it is projected that the Indian

Stock Market will record the highest number of IPOs in a

year.

COVID-19 has hit the market in many ways, showing the

adverse side of the market in the beginning to educating the

common people about the stock market. If it wasn’t for

COVID-19, the Indian Stock Market would not have got the

attention of the global investors. However, many factors

may have affected it but the best thing about the stock

market is that it always bounces back.

How is

Technology

Change is inevitable. Technology has changed the

world for a long time, most notably affecting the

education industry in a positive way and reshaping

st

the teaching learning process. The 21 century learning has

brought a paradigm shift from teacher centered to student

centered learning. Infact, education is made more

interesting, impressive, and interactive when integrated

with the technology.

This integration of technology with learning explores the

various possibilities of knowledge utilisation for the

betterment of the students as well as the teacher’s fraternity.

Technology provides the pupils an effective way to

communicate, collaborate, and concentrate; thereby

bridging the space between the students and information.

Learning Management Systems, Social Media, and Personal

Learning Environments act as the pillars of educational

technology. Now let me highlight how exactly the

technology is transforming higher education:

Accessibility & Flexibility – – Ease of access to

education is an added advantage to draw students to

learning. Education is no longer limited to four walls of the

classroom. Integrating Technology into education has

become a boon for pupils by enabling the playing field to be

leveled.

Now education has become more accessible to rural areas,

towns, and cities. The students are exposed to teachers

across the globe just in front of them virtually. More

importantly, pupils with disabilities benefit from technology

since it increases their independence and helps them to

learn without the constant supervision of their teachers. The

blended approach of education not only saves much time

for teachers but also enables the student to learn at his own

pace. Also, each and every student’s activity can be

monitored with ease.

Communication & Collaboration – Communication is

the first step for any student to excel in his academic career

as it diminishes the gap between the student and the teacher.

The online mode of education has paved a pathway for each

and every pupil to connect with their teacher more easily

than that of the traditional way of education. E-learning via

G-Suite and others are encouraging teamwork as well as

individual growth. Research is being carried out like

Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIEd) hoping to bring

about a revolution in analyzing the data, automating the

assessment tools, and personalizing the learning platforms.

Online Resources & Tools – 21 century students are

exposed to an ocean of resources in the form of e-books,

videos, images, documentaries, digital library, articles,

journals, and blogs for both teaching and learning process.

The various tools include podcasts, gadgets like laptop,

mobiles, I pads and tablets, power point presentations,

communication tools, and content organizing tools.

Personalized and fun learning – Not all students have

equal learning abilities. Personalized learning is an

educational strategy that tries to tailor learning to the

strengths, needs, skills, and interests of each student. Each

student receives a personalized learning plan based on what

they already know and how they learn best. Different

learning styles, such as visual, aural, tactile, and social, can

assist pupils in learning according to their ability. Adding

little bit game further draws the student’s attention towards

learning. Different apps like mentimeter, kahoot, and quizlet

are available for fun learning.

Reduction in paperwork – Every educational institution

now has computers with installed software and programmes

that are connected to high-speed internet. It allows them to

focus on enhancing academic productivity and minimizing

paperwork. Students’/ teachers’ information, administrative

details, logistics, attendance, fees, test and examination

details, curriculum, content, and other activities are all

aided by these technologies. All of the tasks can be done

automatically, eliminating the requirement for manual

labour. Owing to the development of these technologies,

teachers can record lectures digitally and share them with

students instead of spending too much time preparing notes

and delivering lectures on the blackboard.

About the Author

Conclusion:

Education is nothing but teaching the students about the

arena of concepts that they have not learned yet. Integrating

technology into education is like embarking on a journey

into modern invention, where the teacher serves as a guide

during the trip. He also explores the various areas of growth

both for himself and the young minds, thereby playing an

important role in developing the nation.
