Building Lifelong Financial Confidence: 2026 Financial Literacy Pilot Report | Daughters of India

In classrooms across India, students learn complex equations, scientific principles, and classical literature. Yet, practical conversations around managing bank accounts, understanding allowances, and protecting oneself against digital fraud are far too often left out of the formal curriculum. To bridge this critical gap, Daughters of India launched its flagship Financial Literacy Pilot across Maharashtra and Karnataka.

Key Takeaways from the Pilot

• 4,850+ Students Certified: Young women across high school and college grades completed our modular financial curriculum.

• 92.4% Post-Test Mastery: Demonstrating significant retention in practical money management, budgeting rules, and fraud prevention.

• Digital UPI Safety: Empowering students with critical rules, such as knowing that UPI PINs are exclusively for sending money, never receiving.

  
  

The pilot intervention focused on demystifying money for young women, ensuring they enter adulthood with financial independence and self-reliance.
