The pace of new investor additions in the equity markets slowed down in November, with only 13.2 lakh new investors joining the market during the month. This reflects an 11.6% decline in growth compared to the previous month.
The total registered investor base stood at 12.3 crore as of end-November 2025. After two consecutive months of sequential increases, the moderation in November signals a cooling in investor onboarding momentum.
The report provides a regional breakdown of investor participation. North India leads with 4.5 crore registered investors, followed by West India with 3.6 crore, South India with 2.6 crore, and East India with 1.5 crore.
On a year-on-year basis, investor participation increased across most regions. All regions recorded over 15% growth in November, except West India, which saw a relatively slower expansion of 11.6% year-on-year.
