Dream Sports, the parent company of Dream11, has officially launched DreamStreet, an AI-powered stock broking platform aimed at transforming how Indians invest in financial markets.
With this strategic move, DreamStreet aims to capture India’s rapidly growing retail investor segment. Notably, the company has designed the platform to cater to first-time investors as well as individuals who have traditionally avoided stock markets due to complexity or lack of reliable guidance. Earlier, it was reported that Dream Sports planned to enter the stock broking space in March 2025, and the company has now executed that vision.
At the time of launch, DreamStreet enables users to invest in stocks and ETFs. Furthermore, the platform will roll out Futures & Options (F&O) trading and IPO investment features in the coming weeks, thereby expanding its offerings for a broader investor base.
Leadership for DreamStreet includes Dream Sports chief product officer Rahul Mirchandani, who will serve as CEO. Meanwhile, Dream11 product leaders Karan Bansal and Nikhil Lalvani will take on the roles of CBO and CPO, respectively, strengthening the platform’s product and business strategy.
Additionally, DreamStreet integrates advanced features such as stock recommendations from SEBI-registered experts, including research analysts and investment advisors. Alongside this, the platform provides AI-powered access to stock insights. Importantly, it introduces an in-built AI assistant named Veda, which delivers data-driven insights and analysis to support informed decision-making, according to the company. Over the coming months, DreamStreet plans to introduce more capabilities to further simplify investing for users.
“India’s demographic tailwinds—rising disposable incomes, growing financial literacy, and rapid smartphone adoption—are creating a generational opportunity for new retail participation in financial markets,” Mirchandani said.
“By integrating AI-enabled data & information into the core of the platform, we want to help users cut through complexity so that more Indians can be a part of the India growth story,” he added.
This launch also marks a significant expansion of the Mumbai-based company’s financial services and wealth management portfolio. Previously, in December, it was reported that Dream Sports reorganized its structure into eight independent business units, each led by dedicated leadership. Moreover, the company operates across 11 business verticals, including investments in sports leagues such as a Mumbai rugby team and an England-based professional football club, along with its philanthropic arm, the Dream Sports Foundation.
The restructuring followed regulatory disruptions in the online gaming sector, where new laws significantly impacted Dream Sports’ core fantasy sports business by reducing 95 percent of its revenue and eliminating profitability. Consequently, the company has actively diversified into new growth areas like fintech and wealth management.
At the same time, DreamStreet enters a highly competitive and evolving stock broking ecosystem in India. Several fintech and consumer internet companies are aggressively exploring this space. For instance, MobiKwik has secured regulatory approvals to launch broking services. Similarly, Super.money and CRED are actively developing investment offerings.
However, the market already features strong digital incumbents such as Groww, Zerodha, and Angel One, making competition intense.
Moreover, recent regulatory changes have reshaped the trading landscape. Tighter margin requirements, reduced weekly expiries, higher capital thresholds, and increased taxation have made derivatives trading less appealing for retail investors. In addition, the recent increase in Securities Transaction Tax (STT) is likely to discourage speculative trading in futures and options.
Despite these challenges, Dream Sports holds a strong advantage with its base of over 250 million registered users. Therefore, the company can effectively cross-sell DreamStreet and accelerate user adoption in the stock broking segment.
As competition intensifies and regulations evolve, DreamStreet’s success will depend on how effectively it simplifies investing while building trust among first-time and experienced investors alike.
