Market Milestone: NSE Gets 1 Cr New Investor Registrations In 8 Months, Know Key Reasons Here
NSE said the number of new investor registrations reached 1 crore mark on its platform in the last eight months, taking the total to over 8 crore.

National Stock Exchange (NSE) on Thursday said the number of new investor registrations reached 1 crore mark on its platform in the last eight months, taking the total to over 8 crore.

These new investor registrations are not restricted to top-tier cities and cities beyond top 100 accounted for 45 per cent of new investor registrations, NSE said in a statement.

The top cities include Delhi (including NCR) contributing to 7 per cent, followed by Mumbai (including Thane/Raigad) with 4.6 per cent, and Pune with 1.7 per cent.

“The eight crore unique PAN investors correspond approximately to around 5 crore unique households in India amounting to around 17 per cent households directly investing in the Indian stock market via the NSE’s extensive nationwide network of trading members,” it said.

Total number of unique client code accounts registered with the exchange was at 14.9 crore — clients could register with more than one trading member and included all registrations done to date.

In terms of regions, states from northern part of India accounted for 43 per cent towards the last 1 crore new investor registrations, followed by west (27 per cent), south (17 per cent) and east (13 per cent).

Reason

The exchange said the growth in the number of participants can be attributed to the momentum observed in capital markets.

According to the NSE, the first six months of the current financial year have seen 76 lakh new investor registrations. The number of new investor registrations stood at 1.3 crore in FY23, 1.9 crore in FY22 and 0.90 crore in FY21.
