2025 Wrap Up: Building the Future of Wealth, Together

As we wrap up 2025, we keep coming back to one fundamental question.

What did we build last year that genuinely made your investing and trading life better?

In this post, we have attempted to summarize our most notable work in 2025.

2025 was a transformative year for Riise and Motilal Oswal. It was the year we moved from being a platform that offers services to becoming an intelligent wealth ecosystem that adapts to you. Every feature we shipped, every line of code we wrote, every design decision we made, it all came down to one belief: that managing wealth shouldn't feel overwhelming, and growing it shouldn't require you to become a market expert overnight.

Here's a comprehensive look at everything we built this year to support that vision.

Riise 3.0: The Foundation

A foundational shift came with the launch of Riise 3.0, powered by our new MO Design System. This is an enterprise-grade design system that now powers 400+ screens with 98% UI consistency and a premium experience. To put this in perspective, we benchmarked our system against Microsoft, IBM, and even Google's Material Design. Riise 3.0 outperforms them across multiple parameters, from component reusability to design-to-development velocity.

The good part is that now regardless of whether you are on the app or the web, the platform behaves the same way. Watchlists, portfolios, charts, and research follow the same logic everywhere. You no longer have to readjust or relearn anything when switching devices. A lot of work went into making this happen as we had to ensure minimal disruptions while migrating to the new system.

Why does this matter to you?

Because this foundation allows us to ship features faster across all platforms, maintain consistency across your entire experience, ensure every part of Riise feels cohesive, roll out improvements without platform lag, and build more complex features with reliability.

The new unified foundation enabled many of the features that followed. Many of the capabilities we launched later in the year were possible only because of this underlying shift.

Convenience and Security

Next, we continued with a focus on making Riise faster and more secure. PIN-Based Login brought faster and more secure access with simplified authentication. This reduces friction during sign-in while maintaining security, something especially important for users who check their portfolios multiple times a day.

We also launched a Profile Page Revamp with a cleaner, smarter profile view for better account control, making it easier to manage your settings, preferences, and account details without hunting through multiple menus.

Portfolio Intelligence and Alerts

We introduced Portfolio Alerts to keep you informed with timely notifications on key portfolio movements. The key thing is that these alerts are designed to inform without overwhelming. You get notifications that matter, when they matter, without notification fatigue.

Dark Theme arrived soon after, providing a refined dark interface for comfortable extended usage. Whether you're researching late at night or prefer easier-on-the-eyes design, Dark Theme provides a premium visual experience that reduces eye strain during extended sessions.

Mutual Fund Enhancements

We launched STPs in Mutual Funds, enabling systematic transfers for disciplined mutual fund investing. This allows you to gradually move capital from one fund to another over time, reducing timing risk and helping you rebalance portfolios methodically.

Later in the year, we also launched three powerful mutual fund tools that transform how you plan and invest:

MF Goal Calculator helps you plan investments clearly with goal-based mutual fund projections. Whether you're planning for retirement, a child's education, or buying a home, the calculator converts life goals into actionable SIP plans with one tap, showing you exactly how much to invest and for how long.

MF Fund Comparison lets you compare mutual funds side-by-side for informed decisions. Instead of manually comparing funds across websites, you can now analyze returns across different time periods, risk metrics and volatility, expense ratios and costs, and investment style and portfolio composition. This makes it easier to choose the right funds for your portfolio with complete transparency.

MF Step-Up SIP enables you to increase SIP amounts automatically as income grows. This feature helps you systematically increase contributions without manually adjusting each SIP, ensuring your investments keep pace with your career growth and rising income.

We improved UPI and netbanking flows for Mutual Funds and NFOs, making transactions smoother and more reliable. We also ensured Mutual Funds and IPOs are fully accessible within the app without breaking flow, maintaining a seamless investing experience.

Thematic Investing

One of our most significant investing innovations came with Basketonomix. This feature lets you invest easily in research-backed stock baskets with built-in diversification and performance insights. Instead of researching and selecting individual stocks across themes, you can now invest in curated baskets designed by our research team, each representing a specific theme or strategy.

Each basket comes with built-in diversification across multiple stocks, clear performance tracking against benchmarks, research rationale for stock selection, and regular rebalancing by our research team. This makes thematic investing accessible without requiring deep individual stock analysis.

Options Trading and Basket Orders

We shifted focus to execution efficiency with multiple powerful releases. We launched Quick Basket from Option Chain, allowing you to create and execute multi-leg option strategies directly from the option chain. This is useful when executing structured setups such as iron condors, straddles, or strangles where timing matters. Instead of placing multiple individual orders and risking leg risk, you can now deploy entire strategies in one shot.

Custom Basket Orders followed closely, allowing you to build up to 20 stock baskets and place multiple orders together with one click. This is particularly useful for portfolio rebalancing or deploying capital across multiple positions simultaneously.

Family Wealth Management

Family wealth management got a major upgrade with Add Family Members to Portfolio. You can now track individual and consolidated family investments in one unified view. Wealth management is rarely an individual pursuit, it's about securing your family's future. Now you can manage it that way.

With this feature, you can track investments for each family member separately, view consolidated family wealth in one dashboard, monitor performance across the entire household, and make holistic financial planning decisions. This gives you a true picture of family wealth, not just individual holdings.

Market Depth and Transparency

We rolled out 50-Level Market Depth for Stocks and F&O, giving you unprecedented visibility into order book liquidity. The key thing is that the top 5 bid/ask view is often not enough for active traders. With deeper order book visibility, you can better judge liquidity concentration at various price levels, stacked orders indicating support and resistance, potential slippage before executing large orders, and real participation versus apparent depth.

This gives you a clearer view of market microstructure, especially during volatile or fast-moving sessions. We're continuously improving usability and would love your feedback to make this feature even better in 2026.

Algorithmic Trading

A significant enhancement came with StratX on Mobile, bringing expert-curated automated trading strategies directly to the Riise app. What started as a desktop tool became accessible anywhere, allowing you to backtest, deploy, and monitor algorithmic strategies without writing a single line of code.

With StratX, you can access pre-built strategies from experts, customize parameters to match your risk appetite, backtest strategies on historical data, deploy strategies with one-click activation, monitor performance in real-time, and let the system execute trades automatically based on your chosen logic. This democratizes algorithmic trading for retail investors who previously had to rely on expensive third-party systems.

TGS and Discovery

We launched a Refreshed TGS Experience with personalized stock selection and alert controls. The refreshed experience makes it easier to discover and act on trading opportunities aligned with your strategy, with better filtering and notification management.

Search and Navigation

Smart Search Enhancements expanded beyond stocks to search key app sections like Funds, Portfolio, and Orders. This makes it easier to find what you need even when you don't remember exact names or locations, reducing friction when navigating the platform.

Watchlists and Order Routing

Advanced Watchlists was a major upgrade. You can now create up to 20 watchlists with 100 stocks each, track NSE and BSE holdings, and monitor real-time P&L including family portfolios.

Key improvements include unlimited flexibility in organizing your investment universe, real-time P&L tracking across all your ideas, family portfolio monitoring in one view, quick access to your most tracked instruments, ability to track both NSE and BSE stocks, and easy reordering and customization. These changes make watchlists more flexible, whether you're tracking themes, sectors, swing ideas, or intraday candidates.

Smart Order Routing launched alongside these features, automatically placing orders on the exchange offering the best available price. This ensures you always get optimal execution without manually checking multiple exchanges, maximizing value on every trade.

AI-Powered News

We introduced AI-Powered Stock News, delivering the latest exchange-sourced stock news from BSE instantly within the app. You no longer need to visit multiple websites to stay updated on corporate announcements and market-moving news.

Advanced Charting

We enhanced Charts with significant improvements that keep everything you need within the charting interface. The upgrade includes multi-tab charting for comparing multiple instruments simultaneously, integrated P&L visibility without switching views, real-time orders and positions accessible from charts, enhanced market depth directly on the chart, and improved TradingView stability for reliable technical analysis.

No more switching between views. Everything you need to make decisions lives within the charting interface, reducing cognitive load during live trading sessions.

P&L Analytics

Advanced P&L Summary provides smart P&L analysis across accounts, asset classes, and durations with rich visualization. Understanding performance became intuitive with clear breakdowns of where you're making or losing money, helping you identify what's working and what needs adjustment in your strategy.

US Stocks

The US Stocks experience got a complete makeover. We added features to help you discover 5-year multibagger stocks with proven track records, access one-click screeners for different investing styles, explore curated ETF collections across themes and sectors, and research international opportunities with ease. This makes international investing more accessible and helps you discover opportunities in global markets without requiring deep knowledge of US markets.

MO Genie: AI Assistant

We brought MO Genie Chatbot, our AI-powered assistant enabling instant access to reports, service journeys, and FAQs across Riise. Think of it as having a knowledgeable assistant available whenever you need guidance, without waiting for support hours or navigating help documentation.

MO Genie helps you quickly find research reports and market insights, navigate service journeys seamlessly, get answers to common questions instantly, and access your account information on demand.

TrueWealth: Account Aggregator

One of the most requested features arrived with TrueWealth, powered by Account Aggregator technology. This allows you to view all external stocks and mutual fund holdings in one unified portfolio.

For years, wealth management has been fragmented. You might have mutual funds with one provider, stocks with another, and investments scattered across platforms. TrueWealth changes this by bringing all your external holdings into one unified portfolio view within Riise.

The key thing is that the consolidated view is often not enough for serious investors. With True Wealth, you can see your complete financial picture across all providers, make holistic decisions about asset allocation, understand your true exposure across investments, track performance of all your holdings in one place, and identify overlaps and concentration risks.

This isn't just convenient. It fundamentally changes how you can think about your wealth. For the first time, you have a single source of truth for your entire investment portfolio.

Research and Intelligence

As the year progressed, we focused on intelligence and making research more accessible. We launched Research Home, an industry-first unified research destination for all market insights. Instead of scanning multiple tabs or external websites, Research Home brings together equity research, sectoral analysis, macro insights, and derivatives intelligence into one coherent space.

You can now access all of Motilal Oswal's research across multiple formats: text summaries for detailed analysis at your desk, audio playback for insights while commuting, video content for visual explanations, and quick insights for time-pressed decisions. This makes it easy to consume insights however it fits your routine.

The Daily Experience

Beyond the major releases, we shipped many improvements throughout the year that quietly make everyday usage smoother.

Customizable Quick View within the app ensures important information is accessible at a glance, letting you personalize what matters most to you. Seamless QR-based login reduces friction during sign-in across devices, making it faster to access your account.

We also provided enhanced reports across App and Web for cleaner and easier access to your trading history, tax reports, and performance analytics. We increased UPI fund transfer limits, making it easier to add funds to your trading account when opportunities arise. We also created a smoother onboarding journey for new users joining Riise, reducing the time and effort required to start investing.

These improvements may seem small individually, but together they create a noticeably smoother experience across your entire wealth journey.

A Year of Growth and Commitment

2025 was a milestone year for Motilal Oswal and Riise. We continue to grow responsibly, staying true to the values that have guided Motilal Oswal for over three decades. Every enhancement we ship is backed by robust infrastructure, security protocols, and operational discipline.

Our commitment to technology excellence isn't about flashy features—it's about reliability when markets are volatile, speed when timing matters, and intelligence when decisions are hard.

Looking Ahead

We're grateful for everything we accomplished together in 2025, and we're excited about what lies ahead. But more importantly, we want to hear from you. What are we missing? What should we improve? What would make Riise indispensable for you? Your feedback shapes our roadmap, and we take it seriously. Do share your thoughts in the comments. We read them personally, and they genuinely influence what we build next.

Whether you're a first-time investor taking your first SIP, a seasoned trader executing hundreds of trades monthly, or someone managing wealth across generations, we're here to stand by you through every market cycle.

2025 was about building intelligence into every corner of Riise. As we move forward, our goal remains the same: to make managing and growing your wealth feel less like operating a platform and more like having a trusted partner who understands your goals and works tirelessly to help you achieve them.

Thank you for trusting us with your wealth journey. Thank you for your feedback, your patience when we stumble, and your belief in what we're building together. On behalf of the entire Motilal Oswal team, we wish you and your family a prosperous, healthy, and fulfilling New Year.

Let's build the future of wealth together.
