SEBI-Registered Research Analyst-Led Platform 72 Street Raises ₹4 Cr to Expand Into F&O, Model Portfolios And Commodities

* 72 Street has raised ₹4 crore from UHNIs and angel investors to launch the 72 Street app, equipped with Venty, its AI-powered stock market researcher, which scans over 3,800 NSE- and BSE-listed stocks in under 20 seconds.

* To date, the company has invested ₹3 crore in the business. Going forward, 72 Street plans to expand into Futures & Options (F&O), model portfolios, mutual funds and commodities, with these offerings available across both the 72 Street app and Venty AI.

72 Street is a SEBI-registered, research analyst-led platform that combines regulated research with AI-powered analysis to make informed investing more accessible to retail investors. The company has raised ₹4 crore from angel investors and UHNIs. Of the ₹3 crore invested in the business to date, 45% has gone towards technology and product development of the 72 Street app and Venty. As it scales, 72 Street plans to expand into F&O, model portfolios, commodities, and mutual funds, building further on Venty's capabilities.

The company was incorporated in late 2025 by Rohit Agarwal, Co-Founder and CEO, and Fal Ghancha, Co-Founder and CTO. Rohit Agarwal brings 20+ years in investor advisory, formerly with Bajaj Allianz, HDFC Life and Reliance Capital, while Fal Ghancha was formerly Head of Technology and CISO at JioBlackRock AMC, and CISO at DSP Mutual Fund.

The 72 Street app is the company's flagship product, built to make stock-market research more accessible, transparent and easy to understand for retail investors. As a SEBI-registered research analyst platform, the app publishes research-backed recommendations for investors to read and act on. Every recommendation published on the app is prepared and reviewed by 72 Street's team of SEBI-registered research analysts, ensuring investors receive research that is credible, transparent and easy to act on.

Venty is an AI-powered stock market researcher, designed to automatically detect chart patterns and scan more than 3,800 NSE- and BSE-listed stocks across fundamental, technical and sentiment indicators. It gives investors a fast first read on a stock in under 20 seconds, translating complex market data into simple, jargon-free insights ahead of analyst review. Every insight Venty generates is reviewed by 72 Street's SEBI-registered research analysts before publication, combining the speed of AI with the accountability of human oversight.

Fal Ghancha, Co-Founder and CTO, 72 Street, said, “With the 72 Street app, we wanted to give retail investors one trusted platform for their investing journey. Venty scans stocks across fundamental, technical and sentiment data, spotting chart patterns and candlestick formations that would otherwise take an analyst hours to find manually.”

Commenting on the company's vision and the evolving needs of retail investors, Rohit Agarwal, Co-Founder and CEO, 72 Street, said, “Retail investors have more market information than ever, but understanding it is a different challenge. Our objective with the 72 Street app is to make research transparent and easy to understand, reviewed by our analysts before it reaches investors. We're building a trusted research destination for India's growing investor community.”

Through this platform, the company aims to bridge the gap between India's growing retail investor base and the limited availability of regulated and easy-to-understand research. By bringing SEBI-registered research and AI-powered analysis together in one place, the platform simplifies a research journey that often requires investors to rely on multiple sources. The company also plans to expand beyond equities into Futures & Options, model portfolios, mutual funds and other asset classes. As part of this vision, 72 Street is seeking SEBI Registered Investment Adviser (RIA) registration, a step that would allow the platform to extend personalised, one-on-one investment advisory directly to individual investors.

About 72 Street

72 Street is an investment research platform combining SEBI-registered research and AI-powered market analysis. Venty, its AI-powered stock market researcher, powers the app, analysing more than 3,800 NSE- and BSE-listed stocks across fundamentals, technical indicators, sentiment, chart patterns and candlestick formations, translating complex market information into simpler, jargon-free insights, all reviewed by 72 Street's team of SEBI-registered research analysts before publication. The company is registered with SEBI as a research analyst (registration number: INH000029722). 72 Street is building its platform to provide retail investors with accessible, transparent and technology-driven research across equities and, over time, additional asset classes.

Mahindra’s Trucks & Buses Business Sells 2495 Vehicles In August 2026, Registering A Growth Of 47%

Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. (M&M Ltd.), today announced that its overall sales including exports in the Trucks and Buses business (CV > 3.5T) for the month of August 2026 stood at 2495 vehicles, a y-o-y growth of 47%.

Mahindra’s Trucks & Buses business comprises of Mahindra Truck & Bus division (MTBD) and SML Mahindra Limited (SML).

According to Vinod Sahay, Executive Chairman – SML, President – Aerospace, Advanced Technologies, Trucks, Buses & CE, M&M, “The truck and bus segment continues to be supported by higher infrastructure spending, rising freight demand, and replacement demand , while facing challenges on rising input and fuel costs. Volumes were muted in August 2025 due to anticipated GST changes, and hence the growth this month also reflects the low base of last year.

During the month Mahindra Truck & Bus division launched all-new Mahindra BLAZO i-TRK, strengthening its Heavy Commercial Vehicles portfolio. Engineered around the philosophy of “Profit Ka Rocket”, it introduces a powerful proposition centered on up to 10% more fuel efficiency and a 48-hour Uptime Guarantee backed by a ₹10,000 per day assurance”
