Groww

Groww is an Indian fintech company offering investing and trading in stocks, futures & options, mutual funds, ETFs, IPOs and more through its consumer app and web platform. Backed by Iconiq Capital, Ribbit Capital and Y Combinator, Groww also operates the Groww Trading API — an official programmatic interface for algorithmic trading that covers order management (place/modify/cancel), portfolio holdings and positions, margin calculation, live market data (LTP, full quote, OHLC, option chain and greeks) and historical candle data across the CASH (equity) and FNO (derivatives) segments on Indian exchanges. Requests hit https://api.groww.in, are versioned with the X-API-VERSION header, and are authenticated with a daily Bearer access token generated via an API key + secret checksum, a TOTP flow, or an OAuth2 authorization-code flow.

Groww publishes 6 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Authentication API, Historical Data API, Live Data API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Company, Fintech, Trading, Investing, and Stock Broking.

Groww’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, pricing, signup flow, support, engineering blog, and 25 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Securities & Market Data regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/groww: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
