The Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) will launch the regional version of its just-launched investor education protection fund (IEPF) website in the next six months to educate investors about the stock market, Ministry Secretary R Bandyopadhay said on Sunday.

“We will be launching websites in all regional languages in the next five-six months ... Our target will be for all languages, but we will have to work on the final outcome.”

The ministry on Friday launched the IEPF website in Hindi. “We are spreading investor awareness across the country and launching the website in Hindi is a part of that,” Minister for Corporate Affairs Salman Khurshid said while launching the site.

In the current fiscal year, the ministry has organised 300 investor education camps and targets of at least 400 such camps for the next financial year.
