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.
Solid contracts, transparent operations, and an easy start — typically complete on four or five facets with one clear soft spot.
API Evangelist profiles Groww the way a machine reads it — 13 machine-readable artifacts across 6 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Groww scores 60.1/100 (strong), with a separate agent-readiness read of 85/100 (agent native). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Groww
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Groww. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 6
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Groww Authentication API
Access-token generation for API key + secret and TOTP flows.
Groww Historical Data API
Historical candle data.
Groww Live Data API
Real-time LTP, quote, OHLC, option chain and greeks.
Groww Margin API
Available margin and per-order margin requirements.
Groww Orders API
Place, modify, cancel and track orders and trades.
Groww Portfolio API
Holdings and positions.
MCP Servers 1
Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

MCP SERVERPricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Groww Plans
PLANSRate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.
Groww Rate Limits
RATE LIMITSSecurity Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1
OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
OAuth scopes governing access to this provider's APIs.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
Recommended x-agentic-access execution contracts for AI agents.
