During the quarter, younger millennials and Gen Z accounted for 65% of new customers (vs 39% a year ago) and those from tier II and below cities are now 84% of new customers (67% last year). We see a long growth runway, given our country's current position in the financialisation journey, expected secular long term GDP growth, large number of youth entering the job market annually and equally large number of retirees with both sets with differential needs. From an e-broker we have evolved into a one-stop-shop for our customer's financial lifecycle journey. We are now transitioning to a digitally integrated financial marketplace. For this we are acquiring and developing relevant skill sets and also doubling down on digital investments to automate processes and use new age tools like analytics and machine learning to provide customized solutions matching customer profile, risk appetite, and goals.”
