MIA & Zerodha Varsity Empower Women with Financial Literacy
Chandigarh, 3rd March 2025: This International Women’s Day, Mia, one of India’s leading fine jewellery brands, is celebrating women by offering them the power to take control of their financial future. Mia, in partnership with Zerodha Varsity, the educational wing of India’s leading fintech platform Zerodha, is hosting an exclusive, all-women, free online masterclass designed to make financial independence accessible, achievable, and truly empowering.
For years, Mia has championed women—helping them unlock their potential, whether through health, sports, or now, finance. This initiative is yet another step towards that mission – It’s about giving women the confidence to own their financial narratives, the freedom to make choices, and the security to dream bigger.
The online session will offer practical, easy-to-understand lessons on managing personal finances, understanding the basics of investing, and building long-term wealth. With Zerodha at the forefront of India’s fintech revolution, Zerodha Varsity has emerged as a trusted financial education platform, equipping individuals with the knowledge to navigate the world of finance. Participants will also learn how to incorporate gold investments into their wealth-building journey, bridging Mia’s legacy in fine jewellery with modern financial wisdom. Register today to take your first step towards financial freedom through financial literacy.
Commenting on the initiative, Ms. Shyamala Ramanan, Business Head, Mia, said, “At Mia we believe confidence shines brightest when it comes from within, and financial literacy is a powerful way to build that confidence. This International Women’s Day, we’re thrilled to partner with Zerodha Varsity with a collective aim to make financial literacy more accessible and practical. We’re excited to go beyond jewellery and equip women with the tools to achieve financial freedom.”
Commenting on the collaboration, Mr. Karthik Rangappa, Chief of Education, Zerodha said “Money conversations in Indian households have long been unequal—not due to lack of capability, but because women were kept away. Yet, women are natural money managers, bringing emotional balance and long-term thinking to financial decisions. While participation remains low, change is happening. We’re excited to partner with Mia for a special Women’s Day personal finance session—because financial independence isn’t just about money, but the choices and freedom that come with it. This initiative is just the beginning of a larger movement to empower women in finance.”
