Groww wins ET Startup Award 2026 after $13B IPO

Groww, the Bengaluru-based investment platform, has won Startup of the Year at The Economic Times Startup Awards 2026. The recognition follows its November 2025 IPO, which valued the company at approximately $13 billion.
The company’s ability to maintain profitability while expanding beyond its initial brokerage services was cited as a key factor in the award decision.
Groww’s trajectory contrasts with broader trends in Indian fintech, where many startups have prioritized growth over unit economics. Its public listing and sustained profitability signal a shift toward sustainable scaling, though the long-term impact of its diversification strategy remains to be seen.
