Empowering Women Through Financial Independence: Dhan Diksha by Sagun Agrawal Marks Women’s Day with a Mission to Transform Financial Literacy

This International Women’s Day, Dhan Diksha, founded by finance professional and derivatives trader Sagun Agrawal, is taking a bold step toward empowering women with financial independence. A seasoned expert in economics and finance, Sagun has spent years navigating the complex world of capital markets and now aims to bridge the financial knowledge gap among women through her initiative, Dhan Diksha.
Despite having wealth, many women still lack the confidence or tools to manage their finances independently. Cultural norms, societal expectations, and a lack of financial education often leave them dependent on male family members for key financial decisions. Sagun, a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and an active member of the CFA India Society, recognized this challenge and launched Dhan Diksha—a platform dedicated to equipping women with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to take control of their financial futures.
Through workshops, courses, corporate training programs, and personalized coaching, Dhan Diksha simplifies complex financial concepts into practical, actionable strategies. Covering everything from budgeting, investing, and asset management to tax planning and wealth-building, the initiative ensures that women gain the financial literacy needed to make informed decisions.
“Finance isn’t just about numbers—it’s about power, freedom, and security,” says Sagun. “My mission is to ensure that every woman can confidently manage her money and build long-term wealth, on her own terms.”
As more women step into leadership roles and take charge of their careers, financial independence is the next crucial step in their empowerment journey. Dhan Diksha is set to revolutionize the way women engage with finance, breaking down barriers and fostering a new generation of financially confident women.
