What happened

SEBI (India's stock market regulator) has launched Project Jagrook. Under this project, stock brokers must display investor awareness messages on their trading apps and websites. The goal is to help everyday investors make more informed decisions.

Why it matters

Many retail investors — ordinary people like you and me — lose money in the stock market due to lack of awareness. SEBI wants brokers to take responsibility for educating their users. This is part of a broader push to protect small investors from risky decisions.
