A 16-year-old bright young boy, who at a very tender age has taken great strides by launching two initiatives: “SimplyFintech” and “Ek Prayaas”.

Through these two books, Shaurya has made an attempt to radiate his own financial knowledge as well as tap on the knowledge of the experts in the field for the benefit of others. Shaurya projects a very strong viewpoint for financial literacy and is a boy on a mission with immense ‘prayers’. The book has been published in English, Hindi, and Marathi languages.

Money as they say is, ‘hard to earn and easy to lose’. Especially, when it comes to rural India, who earn money through rigorous hard work and are generally a soft target for fraudulent schemes, lotteries or tempted by rewards. This makes them apprehensive about any kind of investment. And what happens in return – money is earned and money is spent, but money doesn’t grow.

Ek Prayaas, an initiative by Shaurya Kabra, is an attempt to create a financially literate rural India. It explains and clarifies various financial concepts like budgeting, investment, savings, loans, fixed deposits, etc. In a simple and easy-to-understand manner through books and animation. It also teaches them how to recover from financial shocks and manage emergency expenditures without feeling overwhelmed. Ek Prayaas – is an effort to help every Indian villager become money-wise and learn how to save it and multiply it for a better and brighter future.
