However, it grew 2% month-on-month in the previous month, from 46.93 million in May.

Meanwhile, rival Zerodha retained its second spot with a 15.58% market share and 7.58 million users. However, it saw a 2.23% month-on-month decline from 7.75 million users in the previous month. Angel One holds the third spot with a 15.28% market share and 7.32 million users, narrowing the gap with Zerodha. Other major brokers, Upstox and ICICIdirect, held on to the fourth and fifth positions, respectively. Ratan Tata-backed Upstox (5.37% market share) saw a 3.36% decline in its user base to 2.57 million, while ICICIdirect (4.07% market share) maintained a steady user base of 1.95 million.

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.

Bengaluru-based stock broker Groww has surpassed the 1.25 crore (12.59 million) mark in active traders in October, driven by the addition of around 3.5 lakh users in a single month, according to data from the National Stock Exchange (NSE). Zerodha, Groww’s closest competitor, had approximately 80.6 lakh (8.06 million) active investors as of last month. Groww overtook Zerodha in October last year and has held the top position ever since. As per the NSE’s data, Groww has nearly doubled its user base over the past year, whereas Zerodha added just 15 lakh new users. Angel One, the third-largest stockbroker, has 75 lakh (7.53 million) active users and may surpass Zerodha in the coming months.
