State Street Investment Management has finalized a strategic investment of ₹580 Cr in Groww AMC, the mutual fund division of asset management company Groww. Following regulatory approvals, State Street now holds a 23% economic stake and 4.85% voting power in Groww AMC. The deal, announced in January, sees State Street investing ₹381 Cr in existing shares and receiving fresh shares worth ₹198 Cr from Groww AMC.
This investment values the asset management business at around ₹2,500 Cr. Post-transaction, Groww AMC will no longer be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Groww's parent company, Billionbrains Garage Ventures, but will remain a subsidiary. The collaboration will see Groww AMC leveraging State Street's expertise in indexing, ETFs, systematic investing, macroeconomic analysis, and portfolio construction.
Groww aims to broaden its passive investment options and transform into a comprehensive asset management platform, potentially establishing a presence in GIFT City. Groww cofounder Harsh Jain expressed optimism, highlighting the value of State Street's global experience. The investment aligns with Groww's strategy to expand beyond its stockbroking roots into asset management, margin trading, commodities, and lending.
Quarterly profits for Groww surged 94.3% YoY to ₹735 Cr in Q1 FY27, while operating revenue grew 66% to ₹1,501.4 Cr.
