Ankit Avasthi — Founder
I’m Ankit Avasthi - an educator, news analyst, YouTuber, and former civil servant passionate about building financial and educational awareness across India. Today, I stand among India’s largest Hindi educators, helping millions understand money, markets, and mindset in a simple and practical way. My journey has taken a few unexpected turns. I completed my M.Tech from IIT Kanpur (Gold Medalist), joined the Rajasthan Administrative Services, and understood governance from the inside. But along the way, I realised that while administration influences systems, education transforms people, and transformation at scale happens digitally. So I shifted from government service to public education. What began with Ankit Inspires India - simplifying news, analysis, and awareness, has grown into a learning ecosystem of 10M+ subscribers and 2.4B+ views across multiple YouTube channels. The next turning point arrived just before COVID, when I noticed a huge gap - millions were consuming market news, but only a fraction truly understood investing or long-term wealth creation. When first-time investors surged during the pandemic, misinformation and confusion rose even faster. That’s when Baaten Bazar Ki (BBK) was born. A channel dedicated to grassroots financial literacy - teaching people how to invest with awareness, avoid speculation traps, understand market behaviour, and build long-term confidence with money. Today, I’m building a multi-language learning ecosystem across: - News literacy - Financial literacy - Competitive exam learning - Long-form public conversations The goal remains the same across all platforms: To empower India through awareness - of news, of the world, of money, and of mindset. Let’s connect and build a more informed and financially confident India together.
