 Started in 2017, Groww claims to have more than 15 million registered users. 

The funding round also saw the participation of existing investors — Sequoia India, Ribbit Capital, YC Continuity, and Propel Venture Partners.

"Groww has raised $83 million in Series D round at a valuation of more than $1 billion. Tiger Global led the fundraising with the participation of Groww's existing investors," the company said in a statement.

Groww was started almost five years back to make investing accessible and transparent to everyone in India, and it has made good progress, CEO and co-founder Lalit Keshre said.

"Only around 25 million people in India are investing in stocks or mutual funds. We will continue working to change this. The new capital will help us invest in new products, acquire talent, and continue building our financial education platforms," he said.

With this round, Groww has raised a total of $140 million to date.
