Finance, explained without the noise
Understand how money and markets work first. Decisions come after.
I am Varun Kumar, a research analyst and trader in the Indian stock market. I am registered with SEBI as a research analyst and have a finance background and more than six years of experience working with the markets. I am based in Rohini, Delhi.
A lot of financial content online is loud, rushed or built around promises. BlogWithVarun takes the opposite approach. It is a place to learn how personal finance, investing, trading and financial planning actually work, in plain language, with the risks shown alongside the ideas.
The aim is simple: help you understand the concepts well enough to ask better questions and make your own informed decisions.
Five areas of financial education
Every article sits in one of these categories, so you can go deeper in the area that matters to you.
Personal Finance
Budgeting, saving, money management and personal financial decisions.

Explain first, opine second
Articles start with how something works and why, so you can judge the idea yourself.
Risk is never optional
Every strategy has downsides. They are covered openly, not buried or skipped.
Examples are illustrations
Numbers, charts and company names are used to teach a concept. They are not recommendations.
Keep it current and correct
Articles show published and updated dates. If you spot an error, tell me and I will look into it.
