The Rise of Rochit Singh: India’s Most Followed Young SEBI RA Inspiring a New Financial Generation

In a country where financial awareness is rapidly evolving, 21-year-old Rochit Singh has emerged as one of India’s most influential young financial educators. Today, he is a SEBI Registered Investment Advisor (INH000023834) with more than 2.2 million followers who rely on his insights and clarity. Born in Biswan, Uttar Pradesh, Rochit’s journey reflects the power of persistence and the willingness to learn through experimentation.

His path began in 2016–2017 during the Jio revolution, which dramatically expanded India’s access to the internet. As a 9th-grade student, Rochit embraced this new digital world not as a consumer but as a creator. He explored domain selling, blogging, app development, gaming videos, and freelancing - each venture adding to his skill set, even though none were financially successful.

His first breakthrough came through a YouTube video explaining solutions to a chapter from the S. Chand textbook. The video gained no views initially. But months later, it gathered traction, crossing 500 views. This milestone, though small, was powerful enough to ignite a deeper passion for content creation. It showed him that progress online is slow but rewarding when paired with consistency.

Despite criticism from teachers and peers, Rochit continued expanding his digital presence. By the 11th grade, he had built a tech-centered YouTube channel with more than 5.5 lakh subscribers. This early success gave him confidence and helped him understand digital audiences on a deeper level.

His entry into the stock market came on January 11, 2020, inspired by the story of Rakesh Jhunjhunwala’s legendary investment in Titan. Like many beginners in finance, he initially explored intraday and swing trading - but soon realized that these methods resulted in losses and unnecessary pressure.

The turning point came in 2022 when market conditions tested the patience of many traders. During this time, Rochit realized that long-term investing had historically outperformed frequent trading. Even simple index investing would have given him better results than his trading attempts.

From that point onward, he made a decisive shift away from trading toward long-term, multibagger investing - focusing on companies undervalued today but capable of delivering exponential growth in future. This decision shaped his identity as an investor and educator.

What differentiates Rochit is his ability to communicate financial concepts in a clear and accessible manner. Young audiences relate to his personal experiences, failures, and honest insights. Instead of presenting finance as complicated or intimidating, he breaks it down into actionable, practical ideas.

Today, Rochit’s 2.2 million–strong community looks to him for guidance on long-term investing, financial discipline, and wealth creation strategies. He advocates patience over panic, consistency over shortcuts, and informed investment over speculation.

From a small town without major financial exposure to becoming India’s most followed young SEBI Registered Advisor, Rochit Singh symbolizes a new wave of youth-led financial empowerment. His story shows that anyone - with the right mindset and discipline - can build a strong financial future.
