Medial

For the first time in the past year, the number of registered users on these platforms declined, slipping by 1.37% to 48.97 million in February, down from 49.64 million in January. Groww retained its top position in overall active users with a 26.57% market share, despite a 1.68% decline in its user base, which fell to 13.01 million in February from 13.23 million in January, according to NSE data. Meanwhile, Zerodha, the second-largest brokerage who holds 16.25% market share, also witnessed a 1.55% month-on-month decline, with its active client base dropping to 7.96 million in February from 8.08 million in January. Angel One, the third-largest broker, saw a 1.53% decline in its user base, ending February with 7.65 million active clients and a 15.62% market share. The decline in user numbers across platforms can be attributed to sluggish market conditions over the past few months. Other major brokers, including Upstox and ICICIdirect, retained their 4th and 5th positions, respectively, but also saw a drop in active users. Upstox, backed by Ratan Tata, reported 2.79 million active users with a 5.70% market share, down 2.42% month-on-month. Similarly, ICICIdirect's active user base declined by 0.57% to 1.94 million. Among traditional players, HDFC Securities bucked the trend, recording a 1.97% MoM growth, while Kotak Securities saw a 0.93% decline, ending February with 1.49 million users. Motilal Oswal and SBI Securities maintained their 8th and 9th positions, respectively, with 1.02 million and 0.98 million active users, holding market shares of 2.08% and 2.01%, respectively. On the other hand, PhonePe’s Share. Market saw one of the highest growth rates among emerging brokers, expanding its user base by 2.58% to 0.35 million active clients. Other rising platforms, Dhan and INDmoney, also increased their user bases by 0.70% and 1.12% MoM, respectively.
