What is Jio BlackRock Broking?
In July 2023, Jio Financial and US-based investment giant BlackRock announced a 50:50 joint venture to enter India’s asset management industry. Their goal? To build a digital-first investment platform that can simplify access to capital markets for millions of Indians.
The SEBI registration, received on June 25, allows Jio BlackRock Broking Pvt Ltd to operate both as a stockbroker and clearing member in India.
Earlier Investments in the JV
In January 2025, both Jio and BlackRock had infused ₹117 crore into the mutual fund business under the joint venture. With the broking license now approved, the venture is expected to go live soon with a full suite of trading, investment, and advisory services.
Expert Take: What It Means for Jio Finance Shareholders
“The approval puts Jio BlackRock in direct competition with major players like Zerodha, Groww, and Upstox. With Jio’s tech reach and BlackRock’s global expertise, this could be a game-changer for the Indian broking space,” said a senior financial analyst.
Investors are betting on Jio Finance share as a strong long-term play, especially with the company aggressively expanding its footprint beyond traditional lending.
