Understanding Cash Flow & Debt Management
Cash flow management involves tracking and optimizing your income and expenses to ensure surplus funds for savings and investments. Debt management focuses on reducing liabilities like loans and credit card debt through structured repayment strategies. In India, with average household debt at ₹2.5 lakh (as of June 2025), effective management prevents financial stress and improves creditworthiness.
Why It Matters: High EMIs and credit card interest rates (36-48% annually) can erode savings, while poor cash flow management leads to missed payments or low credit scores. Proper planning ensures liquidity for emergencies and financial goals. AlphaaEdge.in leverages Motilal Oswal’s expertise to create robust cash flow and debt strategies.
Key Principle: Prioritize high-interest debt repayment and maintain a positive cash flow to achieve financial freedom.
