🧠 Vizzve Finance Tips: Making Green Work for Your Wallet

✅ 1. Diversify Your Green Exposure

Don’t go all-in on just one sector like solar or wind. Spread across funds, bonds, and select stocks.

✅ 2. Use Vizzve’s Risk Profiling Tool

Green stocks can be volatile. Vizzve’s tool helps match your risk appetite to the right investment type.

✅ 3. Track Impact Alongside ROI

Vizzve’s dashboard lets you track:

Carbon offset from your investments

ESG ratings

Portfolio sustainability score

✅ 4. SIP into Green Funds

Start with as low as ₹500/month into an ESG mutual fund. Consistency is key—returns grow over time.

✅ 5. Tax Benefits

Green bonds and select RE-linked infra investments offer Section 80C and capital gains exemptions.
