About The Bazaar Guru
The Bazaar Guru is an independent educational blog covering the Indian stock market, mutual funds, taxation, personal finance, and global financial events, with a focus on how they impact Indian investors and markets. Our goal is simple: explain how markets and money actually work, in plain language, without the jargon-heavy tone that makes finance feel intimidating.
We write about technical and fundamental analysis, financial products like mutual funds and ELSS, market news and events, tax filing and planning, global economic developments and what they mean for Indian markets, and the everyday mistakes that cost investors money, whether it's picking the wrong ITR form or misreading a chart pattern.
Our Approach
Every post on this blog is written to be simple enough for a beginner to follow while staying accurate and useful enough for someone more experienced. We verify facts, rates, and deadlines against current, reliable sources before publishing, and we update our content when rules or numbers change.
We do not accept payment for favorable coverage of any stock, fund, or financial product, and we do not provide personalized investment advice. Everything here is educational content meant to help you understand your options and ask the right questions, not a substitute for professional financial guidance.
Who Writes This
I'm Keshava, and I write The Bazaar Guru. My background is in actuarial science, with a foundation in mathematics, statistics, and financial mathematics. It was during my actuarial studies, working through financial mathematics and economics, that I first got genuinely interested in how markets and money actually work, not just the formulas but the real-world decisions behind them.
That curiosity never really stopped. I've continued researching and learning about markets, financial products, and the Indian investing landscape ever since, and this blog is where I write about whatever I find genuinely interesting along the way, in the hope that it's useful to someone else trying to make sense of the same things.
