India’s financial markets are split into the money market (short-term funds) and capital market (long-term). The money market includes instruments like Treasury Bills, Commercial Paper, and inter-bank lending. The capital market is governed by SEBI, featuring equity (stocks) and debt (bonds). Effective regulation ensures transparency, investor protection, and efficient fund mobilization for development. Students should grasp the significance of liquidity management, interest rate formation, and how capital market reforms (e.g., dematerialization, listing norms) boost investor confidence and corporate governance. Practice identifying differences, key instruments, and regulatory frameworks for robust exam-oriented preparation.
