Retail Investing Boom Continues in India
National Stock Exchange of India on Monday announced that its registered investor base has crossed the 13-crore mark, highlighting continued growth in retail participation in India’s capital markets.
The exchange said the milestone was achieved on April 27, less than seven months after crossing the 12-crore investor mark in September 2025.
According to NSE, the total number of client codes registered with the exchange stood at 25.7 crore as of April 25, 2026.
The exchange had crossed the 25-crore client code milestone earlier this year in February.
The latest figures indicate sustained expansion in market access, rising investor awareness, and increasing participation from individual investors across the country.
The growth also reflects wider adoption of digital trading platforms, simplified onboarding processes, and growing interest in equities and investment products.
National Stock Exchange of India remains one of the world’s largest exchanges by trading activity and a key driver of India’s financial market ecosystem.
