Mumbai: Upstox has unviled its new brand campaign for Muhurat Trading, aimed at promoting equity participation this Diwali. Muhurat trading, a traditional practice in Indian markets during Diwali, symbolises wealth and prosperity. This year, Upstox encourages users to start a new tradition by investing in stocks, mutual funds, or Gold ETFs and MFs.

The campaign's message, ‘Iss Diwali, Kuch Naya,’ emphasizes building new investment habits while respecting tradition. Through a story of a multigenerational family celebrating Diwali, Upstox illustrates how family traditions can expand to include investing together using the Upstox app.

Upstox co-founder Kavitha Subramanian said, “Muhurat trading has always been a significant tradition for the investor and trader community, symbolising the start of the new year. Through our latest campaign, we want to take this auspicious occasion a step ahead. We want to inspire every Indian, —whether a seasoned trader or a first-time investor—to strengthen their investment journey with ‘kuch naya’, fostering a legacy of financial security and prosperity for the future.”

Earlier this month, Upstox introduced new trading features powered by Tick-By-Tick data, branded as the ‘TBT Engine,’ aimed at providing retail traders with access comparable to institutional levels. Upstox seeks to boost trading participation this Diwali, enabling customers to have a more informed and efficient experience on its platform.

Upstox currently serves over 1.3 crore customers, 75 per cent of whom are millennials, with approximately 70 per cent being first-time investors, and 85 per cent of these from tier two and three cities. Adding around five lakh new customers each month, Upstox continues to support investors in building wealth and securing their financial futures for themselves and their families.
