The latest data from the National Stock Exchange (NSE) indicates a steady rise in retail participation from Odisha, with the state’s unique registered investor base (unique PANs) officially reaching 33,52,488. While the state remains a modest player on the national stage, it has maintained a consistent growth trajectory throughout the 2024–2025 period.
The latest NSE reports highlight a shifting landscape where traditional financial hubs are seeing a gradual decline in their national share. In this environment, Odisha has emerged as the second-largest contributor in Eastern India, positioned behind West Bengal.
Nationally, Odisha’s numbers place it in a middle-tier bracket, comparable to states like Kerala and Assam. While states like Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat have seen a more rapid ascent, Odisha’s growth remains incremental. Notably, the data shows that the 33.5 lakh unique individuals in the state currently hold a combined total of 55,29,687 Unique Client Codes (UCCs), suggesting that active investors in the region frequently utilize multiple brokerage platforms to manage their portfolios.
