Stock broking space has turned hyper competitive in the past two years and the players in the space have been diversifying into more investment products. After Groww, launched its own mutual fund, stock broking major Zerodha and Smallcase created a joint venture – Zerodha Fund House – to float an asset management company or a mutual fund in 2023. Now, Zerodha Fund House is eyeing external investment, said three sources aware of the details of the conversation. “They are in preliminary discussions with several investors to raise up to $100 million for the AMC business,” said one of the sources requesting anonymity. For the uninitiated, this would be a first for the Zerodha Group to seek external fundraise ever. The Kamath brothers-owned stock-broking company has been bootstrapped since 2010. “The talks are exploratory in nature and Zerodha Fund House may take months to finalize the deal,” said another source who also wished not to be named as this person isn’t authorized to speak to the media. Zerodha Fund House is managed by an entity named Zerodha Assets Management Private Limited. According to the data sourced from the startup data intelligence platform TheKredible, Zerodha Broking owns 70% of the share capital while the remaining stake belongs to Smallcase. Zerodha Fund House launched its two index funds: Zerodha Nifty LargeMidcap 250 Index Fund and Zerodha ELSS Tax Saver Nifty Large MidCap 250 Index Fund with a portfolio of 250 Indian companies. The company also launched its Liquid [with an asset under management (AUM) of Rs 311 crore] and Gold ETF with an AUM of Rs 35 crore. According to sources, Zerodha got into the AMC business as it wants to assemble different pieces of wealth management along with its core stock broking business. Queries sent to Zerodha Fund House and Smallcase on Monday didn’t elicit any response. We will update the story in case they respond. The stock breaking space has been witnessing fierce competition with four major players: Zerodha, Groww, AngelOne and Upstox. Groww surpassed Zerodha in terms of users in October last year. Interestingly, all four players were profitable in the fiscal year ending March 2023.

Groww widens lead over Zerodha in Oct despite market slowdown Amid a slowdown in India’s retail broking industry, wealth-tech platform Groww was the only major player to record growth in October 2025. According to NSE data, Groww added 1.38 lakh active demat accounts during the month, taking its total to 1.2 crore (12 million). Other leading discount brokers saw a decline in active users. Zerodha and Angel One reported drops of 62,000 and 34,000 accounts, respectively, while Upstox lost about 59,000. The total number of active demat accounts across the top 25 brokers slipped 0.13% in October, indicating a phase of consolidation in the retail investing segment. Among traditional players, ICICI Securities and SBI Caps added 13,000 and 25,000 accounts, respectively. Paytm gained around 30,000 new accounts, while most other brokers, including HDFC and Kotak Securities, reported small declines. Digital-first platforms continue to lead the broking market, with Groww, Zerodha, and Angel One together holding over 57% of NSE demat accounts. Groww accounts for about 26.6% of the total, highlighting its growing share among retail investors. Between July and October 2025, the number of active demat accounts across leading brokers fell from 4.72 crore (47.2 million) to 4.52 crore (45.2 million), reflecting the slowdown after the post-pandemic expansion. The rate of decline has eased, pointing to early signs of stabilization in the market. Groww’s continued growth indicates steady user additions despite the broader industry slowdown.
