If you’ve ever wondered what makes Zerodha, Zerodha, here’s a conversation. Give it a watch.

This is my first long conversation in a very, very long time.
The idea was to talk about all the things that make Zerodha what it is today, because a lot of people don’t really know how differently Zerodha has been built compared to most other companies.
We’ve never raised external capital. We don’t advertise. We don’t have a sales team with sales targets. We don’t do much marketing. We don’t push people to trade or invest. And we have a relatively small team that has remained at roughly 1,000 people since around 2018–19, even though the business has grown five or six times since then.
In this conversation, I spoke about all these things and more: how we think about growth, risk, competition, and the future of Zerodha.
This is also the beginning of a new series where we want to shine a spotlight on the people who have made Zerodha what it is today. A lot of them aren’t very well known, so the idea is to put them on the spot and tell their stories.
Here’s the full conversation:
