Respect is hard to get, but yeah - pretending and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Thank you 😂 🙏

Dhan turns 5 today on Muhurat Trading... 🥰 🎂 🪔
Thank you to all traders, investors and our users, and everyone who believed in us when we started 5 years ago in 2021 with almost nothing - just a small belief that we would do our best and something wonderful would happen...🫡 🚀
With your trust and belief we built @DhanHQ for Traders and now aim to build @MillionsApp for Investors 🙏
We are still small and early in our journey, with miles to go before we become big in the industry. Thank you to everyone, especially our users, it wouldn't have been possible without you!
Happy Muhurat Trading 📈📉 😊
Happy Diwali 🪔
And with that we still say:
Always believe that something wonderful is about to happen! 😊 🚀

Inside the company trying to build the gold standard for cab rides in India.
@shoffr_in started with just 2 cars and now runs a fleet of over 250 electric vehicles, with a focus on making every ride as reliable and comfortable as possible.
Huge thanks to @vikasbardia for showing us around and sharing the story behind Shoffr!
New episode of This Is Business is out now!

Many Congratulations @AngelOne team and @DineshThakkar sir on reaching the #2 spot for AngelOne amongst Stock Brokers with 6.75Mn Active Clients ✌️🙌
Stock Broking continues to be a cut-throat and insanely competitive industry one, we may compete everyday but some of our rivals have our immense respect for building such incredible businesses. 😥 🫡
AngelOne is one such story, from traditional to transformational and later a much incredible journey for its shareholders post public listing as a digital first company. Been on this for nearly 3 decades, and still going strong - unfortunately not much spoken about Angel as much some of other peers in the industry.
Kudos AngelOne team. You of course are a worthy competitor for us at @DhanHQ 🥲 with tremendous respect. 🙏 🥰
If you are building a startup, try to be profitable when you are small.
We turned ebidta positive on a ~$2.25 Mn ARR.
Focus on product led growth.
Built clear edge with product.
~50% user acquisition was organic, it still is.
Had a small team. Small office.
100% work from office, it helps.
Extremely low marketing spends.
Focus on unit economics, from day 1.
When you scale a startup and become large with zero profits, it becomes extremely difficult to turn things around. Not impossible, but is super challenging.
Scale now, profitable later works very rarely.
We like to believe that we wrote our success all by ourselves.
Yes, we may have it all - education, degrees, skills, abilities, hunger, or the urge to win.
Yes, we worked hard, stayed the course, took risks, got lucky at times, and did whatever mattered to get us ahead in our job, careers or in our life.
All true. But the story is incomplete.
Never forget, somewhere in your story was a person who gave you a chance. They didn’t have to. But that person did, without asking anything back.
Mostly a stranger then, that person saw something in you, and probably thought, “Let’s give them a shot.”
When you make it big, give someone deserving a chance!

550 traders. One incredible morning in Salem. ❤️⚡️
Salem, thank you for showing up in such numbers and making the Dhan Meet & Greet truly special.
The energy, enthusiasm and love for the markets made this another memorable stop on our Tamil Nadu tour.
Young startup founders in India getting disappointed by VCs / Investors.. who don't show up for meetings, don't respond to emails or chats, reject the pitches, or simply pass on your startup?
Wait till you meet Investors who go back on their word, fish info for their investments, do not honour commitments, withdraw termsheets, vanish before signing SHAs, have cold feet on executed agreements, and so on.
Stop crying foul about it, and move ahead with building your business. It's all part of the game you signed up for.
Founders have to win despite all of this, and they do win!
