- Continues
to expand its product suite for long-term investors and ‘Super Traders’
backed by exchanges and Clearing Corporation - Enabling
investors to earn passive income from their existing stock & ETF
holdings
November 5,
2025, Mumbai : Dhan (www.dhan.co) – one of India’s fastest-growing
stock trading & investing platform, announced the launch of Stock
Lending & Borrowing Mechanism (SLBM) feature today. The new
offering allows investors to turn their idle stock and ETF holdings into
passive income by lending them for a fixed rental fee without selling their
investments. This mechanism is an exchange-driven process and marks the first
time a discount broker has digitally introduced such an option in India.
For lenders (investors), it’s an opportunity to earn
passive rental income on idle holdings without changing ownership. Rental
yields can vary based on demand and stock liquidity.
“Our mission at Dhan has been to always empower
investors to do more with their investment portfolio. With Renting of Stocks
via SLBM, we are unlocking a new passive income stream for long-term investors
while keeping safety and transparency at the core.” said Pravin Jadhav,
Founder & CEO, Dhan.
Recognizing the growing desire among investors for
smarter yield-generating avenues, Dhan has developed this fully online stock
rental experience, designed to be seamless, transparent, and easy to use. Built
for India’s long-term investors and ‘Super Traders’, SLBM, now enables users to
generate dual income from both capital appreciation and rental yield in a
regulated exchange-settled framework guaranteed by the clearing corporation.
Further, Pravin Jadhav added that, “Indian
investors and traders today are looking for yield-generating opportunities
beyond traditional avenues. Rental of Stocks via SLBM delivers to that end
while being simple, regulated, and rewarding.
Rental of stocks will be made available for investors
of Dhan via its App and Web. Market participants and investors wanting to avail
the facility of Rental of Stocks can transfer their portfolio holdings to their
demat account with Dhan.
Launched in November 2021, Dhan has consistently
delivered innovation-led experiences across Stocks, ETFs, Mutual Funds, MTF
(Pay Later), and its in-house research platform, ScanX. Over time, the company
