Our journey began with a focus on trading excellence in Equities and Futures & Options (F&O) trading. In 2023, we expanded our offerings, introducing a mode solely for investors and a revamped Mutual Fund product. Today, we have evolved into a comprehensive wealth platform, offering a wide range of products and services to help our customers achieve their financial goals.

This key principle when infused with intuitive design and leading-edge technology will help us empower every Indian to take control of their investments.
Where did it all start:
Our journey started in 2010, when Raghu Kumar (RK), Ravi Kumar (RK) and Shrinivas Viswanath (SV) founded RKSV Securities India Pvt. Ltd., a proprietary trading firm. In 2012, we opened up to the general public by entering the retail brokerage space as a discount-broking firm. The dream was to make stock-market investing affordable and easy for all Indians, while ensuring that we also made profits from the venture. In 2016, we rebranded ourselves as Upstox. Kavitha Subramanian (KS) has now joined the founding team and is propelling Upstox to its new heights. The uniquely global-Indian model of Upstox is strongly reflective of the Indian-American antecedents of its co-founders, who bring their knowledge and experience of working in both the Indian and US financial markets.
