Innovative Financial Planning Lecture Inspires MBA Freshmen

22-April-2025

Presidency School of Management organised a guest lecture on the topic "Beyond Numbers: Innovative Approaches to Financial Planning & Capital Budgeting" for its MBA freshmen on April 22, 2025. This guest lecture was designed to provide MBA students with a forward-thinking perspective on financial planning and capital budgeting—disciplines traditionally grounded in quantitative analysis.



The key speaker was Mr. Kishore, Co-Founder and CEO, Stockbyte, and Co-Founder, Stock Market Institute. During the session, he explored modern frameworks that extend beyond traditional number crunching—emphasising strategic thinking, scenario planning, behavioural finance, and technology-driven tools in capital budgeting. Mr. Kishore also engaged students with case studies, interactive discussions, and practical approaches used in dynamic business environments.



The session gained positive feedback from students who gained a deeper appreciation of how financial planning is evolving in the face of technological advancements and uncertain global markets. The lecture was not only educational but also highly inspiring, reinforcing the importance of innovative thinking in corporate finance.



The lecture was successfully coordinated by Dr. Sunil M. Rashinkar, Associate Professor, and Dr. Samiya Mubeen, Assistant Professor –Selection Grade.
