Cite Solutions Research
Upstox shed 16.5 percentage points to 42.8% citation share, the sharpest single-edition decline in the Index today, while Zerodha held the citation lead at 89.5%.
The move
Zerodha retained the aggregate lead at 89.5% citation share, a 0.5 percentage point decline from the previous edition's 90.0%, with ChatGPT ranking it first at 94.3% and Gemini at 91.4%, while Google AI Mode placed Groww first at 88.6% with Zerodha second at 82.9%.
Upstox was the biggest mover, shedding 16.5 percentage points to 42.8% and dropping one rank to fourth from third in the previous edition.
ET Money recorded the strongest gain at 10.1 percentage points to 24.8%, rising one rank to seventh.
Forty-three new domains entered the citation pool, notably including bond and fixed-income platforms such as bonddekho.com, bondscanner.com, and jiraaf.com.
What it means
Zerodha's 89.5% share sits near the top of the competitive range, and the 0.9 percentage point gap with Groww's 88.6% means the co-leadership structure is narrowing rather than widening, with AI Mode already rotating to Groww as its preferred answer.
The engine split between conversational engines favoring Zerodha and AI Mode favoring Groww mirrors a pattern common in consumer fintech: established brands with large existing content libraries tend to dominate on ChatGPT and Gemini, while brands with aggressive recent SEO output often outperform on AI Mode's Google-derived signal.
Upstox's 16.5 percentage point drop from the previous edition is severe and warrants careful monitoring, but a single-edition move of this magnitude typically reflects a previously over-cited comparative article dropping out of AI model context rather than a fundamental brand credibility change; the brand's 42.8% remaining share suggests continued broad citation presence.
ET Money's 10.1 percentage point gain alongside the entry of bond-specific domains including jiraaf.com and thefixedincome.com into the new-source pool may be correlated: if AI engines are expanding coverage of fixed-income investment content, platforms with multi-asset positioning stand to benefit disproportionately.
For an operator in this category, maintaining and refreshing structured content on the highest-citation intermediaries, particularly groww.in and zerodha.com as platform own-sites, remains the most durable lever across all three engines.
