How this work gets made.
I read SEBI circulars. I download AMFI's distributor commission tables. I cross-reference enforcement orders against market design decisions. I traded F&O actively for three years, which means I understand retail market microstructure from the inside, including why participation ends the way SEBI's own data says it does.
The work lives between financial journalism and regulatory analysis. It starts from primary sources, never from press releases. The question is always the same: what does the public record actually prove, and where does the trail go quiet?

What I have is the work on this site, three years of trading experience that taught me how markets actually behave at the microstructure level, and a research workflow that produces at a pace most solo operators do not. I am 23, finishing an MBA, and have not yet worked inside a financial media or fintech team. I will relocate anywhere for the right role. The rest is for you to judge.
