It is a known fact that the engines of development of a nation largely depend upon the people use money and how they optimize the use of money. Perhaps the level of progress can be gauged from the levels of financially capable behavior exhibited by the individuals.
The financial capability is in turn an output of various parameters. Each of the parameters may vary across socioeconomic profile and across nations. The term financial capability can be used interchangeably with financial literacy in many nations. In any case, it is definitely an important predictor of the intensity with which financial inclusion can succeed in a nation. The levels of financial capability precede the onset of financial inclusion and play an instrumental role in speed up the macroeconomic growth. This research paper is an effort to derive a framework for financial capability in Indian context. It also attempts to find the levels of each of the components across socioeconomic profile.

Suicide, a major preventable public health issue, poses a challenge to each and every nation and society. Suicide statistics are available for almost all age groups and the under reporting of suicide data is still a challenge. Suicide statistics for India as reported by National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB, 2020) mention that 1,53,052 people committed suicide in the year 2020. Furthermore, students account for 8.2% of total suicides in India (NCRB, 2020). Considering the scenario, it has become the need of the hour to study the underlying factors. The present study made an attempt to explore the relationship between academic stress, loneliness and suicide ideation among university students. The sample of the present study comprised of 200 (N=200) university students falling in the age group of 19-26 years. Academic Stress Scale (Kumar et al., 2022), Loneliness Scale (Russell et al.,1980) and Suicide Ideation Scale (Beck, 1991) were used to measure the variables. The findings established a significant positive correlation between academic stress, loneliness and suicide ideation.Keywords
