Groww started in 2016 as a mutual fund platform and has expanded into a full-range discount broker. The platform covers most products a retail investor needs day-to-day: stocks, F&O, commodity, MF, IPO, ETFs, and loans. However, there are notable gaps that matter depending on your profile: US stocks onboarding is currently paused, NRI accounts are not available, currency derivatives are not supported, and Groww provides no stock research or recommendations.
All NSE and BSE listed stocks available for delivery (buy and hold) and intraday trading. Brokerage: ₹20 or 0.05% (lower). Delivery is not free — a common misconception. Auto square-off of intraday positions at 3:10 PM. Intraday can be converted to MTF to hold overnight without the full delivery margin.
Index and stock F&O on NSE and BSE. ₹20 flat per order. Advanced option chain with Greeks (Delta, Gamma, Theta, Vega). Payoff graph for visualising strategy P&L before entry. Fast Exit to close all F&O positions in one tap. Basket orders for multi-leg strategies. Pledge your delivery holdings to use as collateral margin without selling.
Groww offers commodity futures and options on MCX — gold, silver, crude oil, natural gas, zinc, aluminium, and copper. ₹20 flat per order. Claimed execution speed under 0.05 seconds. Available from the same Groww app used for equity trading. Commodity trading requires MCX segment activation in your account.
Groww's original strength. 5,000+ direct schemes from 42+ AMCs. ₹0 commission on all transactions — no buy, redemption, or switching fee. SIP, lumpsum, STP, SWP all supported. Processed via BSE Star MF platform. Groww also has its own AMC (Groww Mutual Fund) with index fund products, separate from the broking entity.
IPO applications via UPI mandate for both mainboard and SME IPOs on NSE and BSE. Real-time allotment tracking. ETFs traded like stocks at normal brokerage. Bonds and NCDs available. Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) when issued by RBI. All accessible from the Groww app without separate account activation.
Up to 4x leverage on delivery trades. 14.95% p.a. (0.041%/day) interest on funded amount from T+1. Useful for investors who want to build positions larger than their available cash, or convert an intraday trade to an overnight hold without the full delivery margin. Pledge existing stock holdings to generate additional collateral margin for F&O without selling shares.
In-app personal loans via partner NBFCs and banks (Groww CreditServ). Tenure 3–60 months, APR 13–48%. NPS (National Pension System) investment available through Groww's NPS Point of Presence registration.
Groww does not offer NRI (Non-Resident Indian) accounts — neither PIS nor Non-PIS route. NRIs who want to invest in Indian markets need to use Zerodha, ICICI Direct, HDFC Securities, or Axis Direct instead.
Groww previously offered US stock investing but new user onboarding for US stocks has been paused as of April 2026. Existing users with active US stock accounts are unaffected. New users looking for US stock investing should consider Vested, INDmoney, or Motilal Oswal's international offering.
Groww does not support currency futures and options (USD/INR, EUR/INR, GBP/INR, JPY/INR). Investors and traders who hedge currency risk or trade currency F&O need to use Zerodha, Angel One, or another broker with currency segment access.
Groww is a self-directed platform with no SEBI Research Analyst registration. It does not publish stock buy/sell recommendations, target prices, or analyst reports. If you need research-backed investing guidance, ICICI Direct, IIFL, or BlinkX provide SEBI RA research alongside broking.
Groww is app and web only. There is no phone-based order placement (Call & Trade) and no general support helpline. Support is via email ([email protected]) and in-app tickets. This is a limitation for investors who need phone support during market hours or want to place emergency orders by phone.

Frequently Asked Questions:
-
1. Can NRIs use Groww?
No. Groww does not offer NRI accounts. NRIs who want to invest in Indian markets need to use Zerodha (offline NRI process), ICICI Direct (3-in-1 NRI), HDFC Securities, or Axis Direct (4-in-1 NRI) instead.
-
2. Does Groww provide stock tips or recommendations?
No. Groww is a self-directed platform and does not have a SEBI Research Analyst registration. It does not publish stock buy/sell recommendations. Screeners, charts, and fundamental data are available within the app, but the analysis and decision-making are entirely up to the investor.
-
3. Is Groww good for F&O trading?
Groww is adequate for moderate F&O traders. It has a capable option chain with Greeks, TradingView charts, basket orders, and payoff graph. It lacks bracket/cover orders, advanced market depth, and Sensibull-level options analytics. For high-frequency or professional F&O traders, Zerodha Kite (with Sensibull) or Dhan offer a more complete toolkit. Read the full Groww review →
