Upstox secured an Online Bond Platform Provider (OBPP) license from the Securities and Exchange Board of India. This approval allows Upstox to offer corporate bonds, government securities, and Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs) directly to investors. Zerodha is also expanding its product portfolio into fixed-income assets, joining rivals like Groww and Angel One in this segment.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The expansion by major broking firms into fixed-income assets increases product diversity within the national financial market. The OBPP license allows Upstox to offer these securities directly, rather than relying on third-party partners, intensifying competition in the sector.
