FinnovationZ by Prasad, one of India’s most popular finance education platforms, has launched two new Smallcase investment bundles designed for retail investors as Ikashi Wealth. The announcement came during a live YouTube session hosted by Prasad Lendwe, better known as Namaskar Prasad, where the curated portfolios were explained and demonstrated in real time.
The launch introduced Ikashi’s Value Investing Theme and Ikashi’s Emerging India Theme, both now available on the Smallcase platform.
The live stream also featured portfolio walkthroughs, interactive audience Q&As, and a special discount coupon (“FAM30”) for early subscribers.
By combining product education with live engagement, the FinnovationZ Smallcase launch signals a new era in retail investing where financial knowledge and tools are delivered side by side.
The collaboration between FinnovationZ and Ikashi Wealth offers Indian investors something unique: ready-made, research-backed stock and ETF portfolios built for long-term value and growth.
Traditionally, stock market participation has been seen as complex and risky, especially for beginners. By launching Smallcase themes live, Prasad aimed to show that investing can be accessible, transparent, and easy to start.
Highlights of the launch included:
- Two curated Smallcases: one focused on value investing, the other on India’s emerging growth story.
- Interactive learning: Viewers asked questions about diversification, stock themes, and portfolio strategy.
- Transparency: Fees and product details were shared openly, reinforcing investor trust.
- Retail focus: The bundles are tailored for new investors who often struggle with stock picking.

This Smallcase launch by FinnovationZ and Ikashi Wealth is more than a product debut. It reflects a shift in how financial education and retail investing intersect in India:
- Democratisation of finance: Ready-made portfolios help everyday Indians participate in markets with less confusion.
- Influencer-led trust: Retail investors often rely more on educators like Prasad than on traditional financial institutions.
- Live interactive learning: Streaming launches with Q&A make investing less intimidating and more transparent.
- Safe entry point for youth: With India’s Gen Z and millennials seeking passive income, curated bundles provide a structured path.
The FinnovationZ-Ikashi Wealth Smallcase launch shows how finance influencers are reshaping India’s retail investing ecosystem. By combining education, interactivity, and accessible tools, Prasad Lendwe continues his mission to make investing simple, safe, and smarter for millions.
As India witnesses a surge in stock market participation, such collaborations are set to play a central role in building a more financially literate and empowered generation of investors.
