Stay away from forex because it’s riskier than stocks for beginners. Trust me, forex will eat you alive if you start with it, much better to start with stocks. If you are in Mumbai you can still trade US stocks and London stocks btw. The transaction fees are amazingly cheap in the US now!
I recommend a low fee brokerage like sogo who charge $3 a trade like I said before and also give you 100 free trades to start so make your first few trades really small ones.

And if you like to read then hit amazon and look for 5 star reviews on books and try to figure out what you might like the most, daytrading, options, swing trading.
You need to understand the logic behind diversification and hedging. Don’t be scared, just because some people lost their shirts doesn’t mean you will. The key is to educate yourself and learn how to prosper even in declining markets such as now! That’s the trademark of a savvy investor. Go for low risk, low yield stocks first since you are new at this. Read as much as you can and watch youtube videos and documentaries. If you find the topic interesting then open a brokerage account somewhere and start buying stocks.
