I have personally benefited from ASTA’s training. ASTA's programs focused strictly on education — teaching me how to analyze markets, manage risk, and build discipline. At no point did I receive stock tips or advice on what to buy or sell. I support this petition because mistaking educational training for investment advisory could unfairly restrict access to legitimate trader education. I respectfully urge SEBI to acknowledge the difference and support quality financial literacy for retail traders. Empowering retail traders with disciplined, independent decision-making skills strengthens the market ecosystem. A clear regulatory distinction will help genuine educators continue contributing to financial literacy in India.
Quite frankly not even a joke or laughing matter. Literally illogical as to why they would ever consider making a paper this hard. Considering the backlash they got about 2019. This was like 5x worse. Doesn’t even make sense?
Walking out that exam hall, I couldn't feel any of my senses, couldn't see properly because of the tears rolling down my face, couldn't hear properly because of the trauma warping my hearing. All i could feel was sadness and rage. I spend what felt like my entire life preparing for this exam. But nothing could have prepared me for whatever the devil wrote on those pieces of paper. My brain cannot comprehend what happened that afternoon, frankly I'm surprised I am even able to write this, but I persevere, so you too can express your story without having the pain to write it out and experience it once again. Truly a nightmare that I would never want to experience again.
