What is passive income?

            What is passive income?
Passive income = money you earn even when you are not actively working that day.

Active income: you work -> you get paid. Example: salary, daily wages. If you stop working, money stops.

Passive income: you do work once, or put money once -> it keeps paying you small amounts for long time, with little daily effort.

*Simple examples for India with small capital like yours:*

*1. From money you already have (Rs 50k):*
- *Bank FD / Savings interest:* Rs 50k in FD at 7% = Rs 3,500 per year. Truly passive, but very low.
- *Dividend from stocks:* Tata Chemicals gives ~Rs 12-15 dividend per share per year. If you have 10 shares, you get Rs 120-150 per year without selling. Not much, but it's passive.
- *Index fund dividend/ growth*

*2. From work you do once:*
- *Rent:* If you have a small shop/room, rent is passive
- *YouTube / Instagram / Blog:* Make a video once about something you know (farming in Haveri, cooking, chemical stocks explanation) - views give ad money for months
- *Digital product:* eBook, Canva template, Excel sheet - make once, sell many times
- *Referral income:* Apps like Zerodha, Groww, Amazon give referral commission

*3. What is NOT passive (scams to avoid):*
- "Invest Rs 10k get Rs 1k daily" - Telegram/WhatsApp - 100% fraud
- Crypto trading bots promising fixed income
- Any scheme asking you to add more people to earn

Best passive income for beginners with small capital is *skill-based*: You work on weekend to create something (video, small website, notes for students) which can earn for months.
