New Delhi, June 26: The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) continues to maintain a dominant position in the country’s financial markets, with a 93% market share and a registered investor base of 12.9 crore, according to Centrum Broking.
Centrum said the exchange’s scale and deepening retail participation highlight the strong structural growth of India’s capital markets, supported by rising financial awareness and increasing participation from individual investors across the country.
The brokerage noted that NSE’s expanding investor base underscores the growing penetration of equities and other financial instruments, driven by digital onboarding, simplified investment processes, and broader market access.
Industry data indicates that India’s stock market participation has expanded rapidly in recent years, with retail investors contributing significantly to trading activity across segments such as equities, derivatives, and ETFs.
Analysts said the dominance of NSE reflects its strong ecosystem, high liquidity, and continued preference among market participants, reinforcing its position as the primary trading platform in India.
Centrum’s assessment highlights the broader trend of deepening financialisation of savings in India, with increasing participation from younger investors and non-metropolitan regions.
