Mumbai: The National Stock Exchange (NSE) announced on Wednesday that the number of unique registered investors on its platform has surpassed 11 crore, with the most recent 1 crore registrations being achieved in just five months, media reports said.

This milestone highlights the growing participation of individuals directly engaging with the stock market.

Investor registrations at the NSE have witnessed significant momentum, increasing by 3.6 times over the past five years, reported Business Standard.

It took 14 years from the NSE's inception in 1994 to reach the 1 crore investor mark.

However, the pace of growth has since accelerated.

The second crore was achieved in seven years, the third crore in 3.5 years, and the fourth crore in just over a year.

NSE CEO Ashishkumar Chauhan attributed this rapid growth to factors such as improved digital accessibility, heightened investor education, and government efforts to promote financial inclusion.

A younger, tech-savvy demographic and increased awareness about the advantages of equity investments have also played a critical role in boosting market participation.

The rise in investors is not limited to urban centres, as registrations have extended to all but 30 pin codes across India, representing 99.84% geographical coverage.

Maharashtra leads with 1.8 crore registered investors, followed by Uttar Pradesh with 1.2 crore and Gujarat with 98 lakh, together accounting for 36.6% of the total 11 crore investors.
