The survey has revealed that people in India do not plan for long-term future and keep themselves away from investing in the long-term instruments though they save for long-term goals such as emergencies, education and old age. Financial planning is also affected by external factors like social and economic factors and also individualistic factors like financial awareness, financial literacy, saving habits, risk taking ability etc. Hence it is important to understand the practices followed by Indians about financial planning, this article reviews the effect of financial behaviours in ways that enhance financial capability.
