Intro

India’s largest stockbroker, Groww, is chasing an ambitious IPO. But behind the headlines, its core broking business is under stress. Its clients are leaving, regulations are squeezing revenues, and profits are wobbling.

To keep its $7–8 billion valuation intact, Groww is making big moves. It's acquiring loss-making wealth-tech startup Fisdom for $150 million and launching “W,” a new unit for the rich.

Wealth management is the trend everyone wants in on, but can Groww really pull it off? Or is this just optics ahead of the IPO?

Tune in.

Compete in India's first and only case competition.
