✦ Our Story · Est. 2000

A business built on love. Carried forward with purpose.

Prasar Finserv began as one man's dream to secure every Indian family's financial future. Today, it is a mother and son's mission to carry that dream forward — expanding wealth, and the love that fuels it.

2000
A dream born in Delhi

Late Sh. Prakash Chawla walked away from his family's chemical business with a singular conviction: every Indian family deserves financial security, not just the privileged few. In 2000, he became an IRDA Advisor and founded Prasar — pouring into it his warmth, his integrity, and an unrelenting desire to help people feel financially safe.

He was known among clients not as an agent, but as a trusted friend — someone who showed up, followed through, and always put their interests first.

2021
The moment everything changed

In May 2021, COVID-19 took Prakash from his family and from the hundreds of clients who depended on him. He left behind a business, a mission — and a wife who had never worked in finance a day in her life.

Sarika Chawla could have walked away. Instead, she walked in. Armed with love, determination, and 20 years of corporate experience at Ericsson and Nissan Motors, she began rebuilding — learning, certifying, advising — and refusing to let Prakash's vision die.

✦ Carried forward with extraordinary resilience
Now
A family business — in every sense

Today, Sarika runs Prasar alongside her son Chirag Chawla, who joined as a certified IRDA and NISM advisor at just 21. Together, they serve 300+ clients, conduct 50+ corporate training sessions, and run financial empowerment workshops across India — especially for women.

Prasar isn't just a business. It is a journey — of loved ones, by loved ones, for loved ones.

More than a financial firm —
a family's legacy

प्रसार
Prasar · Sanskrit / Hindi
Expansion. The spreading of something outward — growth, light, knowledge, love. Prakash chose this name intentionally: to symbolise the expansion of financial freedom to every family, and the expanding love that drives everything Prasar does.
"Prasar isn't just a business — it's a journey of loved ones, by loved ones, for loved ones." — Sarika Chawla, Co-Founder

What makes Prasar different from other financial firms isn't the products we distribute or the certifications we hold. It's the why behind every conversation we have with a client.

Sarika knows what it feels like to be suddenly alone, financially overwhelmed, and unsure where to begin. That lived experience is woven into every client interaction — the patience, the plain language, the refusal to judge, and the genuine care for each person's specific situation.

When you come to Prasar, you're not a policy number. You're a person with a family, a future, and financial decisions that matter. We treat you accordingly.

The why behind
everything we do

Three commitments that guide every recommendation, every workshop, every client relationship. These aren't aspirational values — they're how we actually operate, day in and day out.

Sarika Chawla
Co-Founder & Principal Advisor · Prasar Finserv
Financial Trainer · Former Executive at Ericsson & Nissan Motors

Sarika's path into finance was not planned - it was chosen out of love and necessity. For 20 years, she built a career in the corporate world, working as an executive assistant at Ericsson and Nissan Motors, developing a reputation for being organised, reliable, and extraordinarily effective under pressure.

"After 20 years of corporate experience, my passion for training led me to become a certified image consulting trainer. Then life's changing circumstances led me to the finance sector, where I discovered a new purpose - empowering people with financial knowledge and security."

When Prakash passed in 2021, Sarika made the hardest and bravest decision of her life. She didn't sell the business. She didn't step back. She stepped in - enrolling in NISM certification courses, studying insurance advisory, and earning her QPFP qualification, all while supporting her son and serving the existing clients who depended on Prasar.

What she brought was different from what most financial advisors offer. She brought empathy. She knew what financial confusion felt like from the inside. And that knowledge - that lived understanding - became her greatest professional asset.

Today, Sarika is one of Delhi's most sought-after financial trainers, having conducted 50+ corporate sessions at firms including Nissan, WICCI, JIMS, and more, and having trained over 1,000 people across India. Her Women's Financial Empowerment workshops have become a touchstone for homemakers and professionals alike.

Building Prasar

Late Sh.
Prakash Chawla

Founder · IRDA Advisor · 2000 – 2021
"Trust, transparency, and dedication — these weren't just business values for Prakash. They were the way he lived."

Prakash Chawla was a visionary who chose purpose over profit. Leaving behind the security of his family's chemical business, he became an IRDA Advisor in 2000 — not because it was lucrative, but because he believed deeply that financial security should be within reach for every family in India.

For 21 years, he built Prasar client by client, trust by trust. He was the kind of advisor who remembered birthdays, called during claim settlements, and sat with clients through life's biggest financial moments — buying a first home, planning a child's education, navigating a health crisis.

When Prakash passed in 2021, his clients didn't just lose an advisor. Many lost a friend. His legacy lives on in every conversation Sarika and Chirag have — in the warmth, the patience, and the uncompromising commitment to doing right by every person who walks through Prasar's door.

What PRASAR stands for

Six principles that are woven into every conversation, recommendation, and relationship we build. These aren't aspirational values - they're how we actually operate.

P
First Principle
Partnership
We don't just advise - we collaborate. We take the time to deeply understand your goals, your family situation, your fears, and your aspirations before making a single recommendation. Your success is our benchmark.
R
Second Principle
Resilience
Markets change. Life changes. We adapt with you - whether it's a market correction, a job loss, a medical emergency, or a life transition. Our commitment to your financial stability doesn't waver when things get hard.
A
Third Principle
Accessibility
Financial guidance shouldn't be a luxury. We work with clients at every income level - from someone starting their first ₹500 SIP to a corporate executive planning retirement. From pocket money to pension: we're with you.
S
Fourth Principle
Simplicity
Finance is made deliberately complex by people who profit from your confusion. We refuse to do that. We explain everything in plain language - no jargon, no fine print surprises, no decisions you don't fully understand.
A
Fifth Principle
Authenticity
We recommend what's right for you - not what earns us the highest commission. Our advice is honest, even when it means telling you something you'd rather not hear. Trust is the only currency we care about.
R
Sixth Principle
Reliability
We show up - for claim support, for portfolio reviews, for the call when you're worried, for the anniversary reminder on your policy renewal. Our clients don't just come back; they bring their families, their colleagues, their friends.

You deserve a financial advisor
who actually cares.

Book a free, no-pressure conversation with Sarika. No commitments, no jargon — just warmth, honesty, and a genuine desire to help you build the future you deserve.
