At a time when financial landscapes are transforming and investment avenues continue to expand, Zee Business reaffirmed its role as a frontrunner in India’s financial literacy movement with the successful hosting of the Wealth Creation Summit 2025 on May 29 in Mumbai.

The summit brought together India’s top financial minds to help viewers decode market trends, understand strategic investing, and pave the way for long-term wealth creation.

The event, as per a press release, was not just a summit—it was the continuation of a story that began on March 24, 2020, when Indian markets faced one of their steepest crashes in recent history. While panic gripped investors, Zee Business, under the guidance of Managing Editor Anil Singhvi, took a contrarian view—transforming the moment of crisis into an opportunity for millions. That day has since evolved into Wealth Creation Day, commemorated every year on March 24, followed by a two-week Wealth Creation Week, further cementing the channel’s commitment to financial awareness.

Carrying forward that legacy, the 2025 summit emerged as a high-impact platform where market leaders, fund managers, financial planners, and investment experts shared their perspectives on how individuals and families can make informed financial choices in today’s volatile economy. Themed around “shaping the future of smart investing,” the event gave lakhs of viewers across the country critical insights into market cycles, retail investor growth, and the discipline of goal-based planning.

The summit opened with a powerful fireside chat between Anil Singhvi and Navneet Munot, MD & CEO of HDFC Asset Management. Munot highlighted how India’s investment landscape is evolving and why mutual funds remain critical for long-term wealth building. Another engaging session titled ‘Blueprint for Profitable Trading & Investment’ saw Univest CEO Pranit Arora in conversation with Zee Business’ Smita Singh, offering actionable strategies on navigating modern markets through structured trading and disciplined investing.

Two high-powered panel discussions followed. The first, ‘How to Create Wealth from the Equity Market’, brought together veterans like Nilesh Shah, Pankaj Tibrewal, and Manish Gunwani alongside Singhvi, decoding equity strategies, sectoral bets, and tips for retail investors. The second panel, ‘Personal Finance: The Perfect Formula for Wealth Creation’, featured experts Feroze Azeez, Pooja Bhinde, and Harshvardhan Roongta, who emphasized holistic planning—covering budgeting, risk management, financial goal mapping, and the importance of personalized advisory.

Anil Singhvi reflected on the channel’s journey, saying, “March 24, 2020, was a turning point that proved amidst uncertainty lies immense opportunity. This summit reaffirms our commitment to empower millions with clarity, tools, and actionable strategies to build financial freedom.”

Echoing the sentiment, Karan Abhishek Singh, CEO of Zee Media Corporation Limited, said, “Zee Business has been at the forefront of making financial literacy accessible and aspirational. We are proud to enable real wealth creation and to be part of this national transformation.”

What began in 2020 as a bold stance during market turmoil has, by 2025, grown into a grassroots movement, touching lives across metros, Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. Zee Business is now not just informing but transforming India—building a generation of financially aware citizens who see wealth creation not as a privilege, but as a right.
