Techno India University hosted an inspiring and deeply insightful session today on “Career Opportunities in the Securities Market & the Role of NISM”, led by Subhayu Das, Assistant General Manager at the National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM). The talk brought together students from various schools of the university, all curious to understand how India’s fast-growing financial sector is opening up new and exciting career avenues.
From the very beginning, Mr. Das made the world of securities feel approachable. Instead of overwhelming students with jargon, he broke down how the market actually works, the different roles within it, and why India needs a new generation of skilled professionals. He emphasized that the sector is expanding rapidly—and not just for finance majors.
“The securities market is no longer a niche zone,” he said. “If you’re curious, disciplined, and ready to learn, this space has a place for you.” He went on to explain how NISM plays a crucial role in raising professional standards in the financial industry. Students gained clarity on how NISM certifications can serve as a strong
starting point, helping them build credibility and industry-ready skills right from the beginning of their careers.
What stood out most was how relatable the session felt to the students. Instead of abstract concepts, they heard real examples, lived experiences, and practical advice. Many shared that the session made the financial sector seem far more accessible than they had imagined.
One student shared, “This session cleared a lot of misconceptions. It made me realize the market is dynamic, promising, and something we can actually be a part of.”
Another added, “For the first time, career planning felt connected to real opportunities—not just textbook chapters.”
The interaction didn’t end with the presentation. The Q&A that followed brought out a high level of engagement, with students asking thoughtful questions about internships, career trajectories, upcoming job roles, required certifications, and how they can stay competitive in a technology-driven financial world. Their questions reflected a strong desire to understand industry expectations and to explore meaningful, future-ready career paths.
