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.

Upstox ranked fourth, had 28.52 lakh (2.85 million) users as of last month. ICICI Direct is the fifth largest player in this space with 19.3 lakh active users (1.93 million).

In terms of scale, Zerodha had the highest revenue in FY24 at Rs 8,370 crore, followed by Angel One, which reported Rs 4,272 crore in revenue for the last fiscal year. Nithin Kamath’s Zerodha reported a profit of Rs 2,907 crore, while Angel One’s profits exceeded Rs 1,125 crore in FY24. Groww’s revenue from operations surged to Rs 3,145 crore in FY24. The Lalit Keshre-led company recorded a net loss of Rs 805 crore in FY24, primarily due to a one-time tax payment of Rs 1,340 crore for relocating its domicile to India. Despite this, the firm remained operationally profitable. Upstox, which posted over Rs 1,000 crore in revenue in FY23, has yet to file its annual report for FY24.

Sid’s Farm, a Hyderabad-based dairy brand, recorded a decent growth in revenue in the fiscal year ending March 2025. However, rising costs pushed the company deeper into losses. Sid’s Farm’s operating revenue increased by 38% to Rs 168 crore in FY25 from Rs 122 crore in FY24, according to its financial statements sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC). Founded in 2016, Sid’s Farm is a mass premium Hyderabad-based dairy brand. The startup controls the entire value chain of milk and milk products by sourcing directly from farmers. Including other income of Rs 2 crore, the company’s total income stood at Rs 170 crore in FY25. The surge in topline was accompanied by a faster rise in expenses. Sid’s Farm’s total expenses jumped 47% to Rs 196 crore in FY25 from Rs 133.5 crore in the previous fiscal year. Cost of material consumed remained the largest expense, accounting for over 64% of the overall costs. This expense rose 41% to Rs 126 crore in FY25. Employee benefit expenses increased by 47% to Rs 25 crore. Costs nearly doubled to Rs 7 crore in FY25 from Rs 3.6 crore in FY24. Distribution and transportation expenses grew to Rs 8 crore and Rs 5 crore, respectively. Other expenses added another Rs 25 crore during the year. The sharp increase in costs led Sid’s Farm’s losses to increase by 2.6x to Rs 27 crore in FY25 from Rs 10.5 crore in FY24. Its ROCE and EBITDA margin stood at -45.24% and -14.58% respectively.
