Measured over 22 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 954 interactions against 1.0M followers, an engagement rate of 0.092%. Measured over 22 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 3,809 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 110K times each, and 0.869% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 10.6% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 77% of days. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 22 posts sampled, 86% carry an image or video and 55% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 13K interactions, about 14x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Nithin Kamath's engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 47% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

At 0.092%, Nithin Kamath sits above the 50th percentile of the 36,960 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.08% to 0.435%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 11:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

It's been almost 20 years since I got my Airtel connection, and I've easily paid them more than Rs. 25 lakh in that time. I can't think of any other business that has made even close to this much money from me. Now the reason why I am saying this is I was watching the latest episode of the Intermission by @TheKenWeb. In case you haven't checked it out, it's a wonderful show on the history of some of the biggest businesses in India. Their latest episode is about Airtel and Rohin, and Seetharaman traced the entire Airtel journey, and I didn't realize that Airtel has had many, many near-death experiences and yet always came out stronger to be the business that it is today.

My biggest nightmare as a broker is what’s happening in the Korean markets right now. The source of my nightmare is the way our MTF book has been growing along with the industry as a whole. In terms of pure risk, MTF is by far the biggest risk we have taken since we started in 2010. More specifically, the risk lies in our ₹9,000-crore book: at least half of it is in non-F&O stocks, which can hit lower circuits every day without offering an exit. The problem with Korea is the one-way rally. When markets go up so sharply, leverage builds up because collateral values increase, leading to more borrowing and so on. The second layer of risk comes from the derivatives complex and leveraged ETFs, which further exacerbate moves on both the upside and downside. When the markets fall, things get really ugly. The first leg of selling tends to be small, but as collateral and margin values drop, margin calls increase, leading to forced selling. Forced unwinding from leveraged ETFs makes this worse, and this downside move becomes a self-reinforcing loop until things stabilize. Btw, MTF became popular only in the last 3–4 years, and we really haven’t seen a sharp market crash similar to the KOSPI since COVID. Even though MTF as a percentage of market cap is small, if the Indian markets were to fall sharply, it would cause severe sell-offs across many small- and mid-cap stocks. Brokers today typically provide MTF on ~1,500 stocks. 😬 Luckily, thanks to SEBI, we've avoided the worst excesses that typically arise from unchecked leverage. Btw, my colleague @prayagverma maintains a site with really good market stats, including MTF, here: https://t.co/uRJrvOvbHK

Akshayakalpa has 13 years of data showing that simply introducing bee boxes increases the average coconut yield per farm by 20%. It’s such a massive win-win that they’ve now integrated 7,500 bee boxes across all their farms. Shashi from @akshayakalpa recently brought over two bee boxes for my home to get us started with beekeeping. In this clip (full video in comments), he walks through how incredibly simple it is to set up a bee home, even in smaller or semi-urban spaces. The bigger takeaway here is about how we view sustainability. We often look for grand, complex technological solutions to environmental issues. But the reality is that our survival is deeply tied to basic, interconnected ecosystems. Without pollinators, our food systems collapse; roughly a third of what we eat depends entirely on them. Taking care of them isn't just a good deed; it's an absolute necessity for our own survival. And I think education is the key, which maybe the bee boxes in urban spaces can do. Can’t be prouder of everything that the Akshayakalpa team is doing for improving the quality of life of farmers, their economics, their cows, and everything else.

I've spoken many times about the need to make it easier for NRIs to invest in India. Finally, some great news. SEBI just released a consultation paper proposing a fully digital onboarding process for NRIs, without needing them to be physically present in India! Kudos to SEBI for this pragmatic move. This is huge because NRIs tend to have large amounts of capital to invest and are a highly durable source of inflows into Indian markets. At @Zerodha, we have over 50,000 NRIs investing with us today. A stat that surprised me when we looked at our numbers: ~80% of them are active. That's a ridiculous number. They tend to invest more, take a longer-term view, and seem to be much stickier investors than regular investors. This number has grown a lot over the last few years, mostly because the process got simpler. SEBI's earlier changes meant NRIs no longer needed the whole PIS setup to invest. Most NRIs now come in through NRO Non-PIS accounts. These accounts work almost like resident accounts today, with intraday, BTST, and F&O access, and no CP code needed. But one massive bottleneck has remained: onboarding. Even today, to open an account digitally, an NRI has to be physically in India. If they are abroad, there's a ton of physical documentation involved and dealing with international courier delays. It has always been the most painful part of the journey. SEBI’s proposals in the new consultation paper fix this longstanding gap. They’re proposing allowing e-signs directly from the client's country of residence. If finalized, this would relax tedious documentation rules and delays. Something that would take 2-3 weeks or even months could be done within 1-2 days. That's a big win. By removing all this friction, this investor base can easily be many times larger. Getting foreign money into India matters. It helps the investors, but it also helps the rupee and the larger India story. Anything that makes it easier for this money to come into India is worth doing.

India is a weird market. With obesity rates shooting up, I'd have bet on the sales of generic GLP-1s exploding once their patents expired. They now cost about Rs 1,000–2,500 a month, and there's growing evidence pointing to benefits well beyond weight loss, including cardiovascular, metabolic, and liver health. Yet, generic drugmakers are quietly cutting their sales targets by 25–30%. At Rs 1,000–2,500 a month, it's cheaper than a gym membership. The real problem seems to be retention. GLP-1s are injectables, and you have to keep taking them. If you stop, you gain back the lost weight. It seems like asking someone to stay on a weekly injection indefinitely is a much harder sell. A few other friction points: For a variety of reasons, Indians haven't taken to GLP-1s with the same enthusiasm as Western populations. Could it be because Indian physicians are conservative when it comes to prescribing newer drugs? Self-injecting is a pain for most people, and that friction and inertia might be stopping them from starting in the first place. Given that there are now GLP-1 pills, I'm wondering if the adoption curve will change.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 954 interactions against 1.0M followers, an engagement rate of 0.092%. Measured over 22 original posts, its engagement rate beats 72% of 3,809 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 110K times each, and 0.869% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 10.6% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 77% of days. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 22 posts sampled, 86% carry an image or video and 55% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 13K interactions, about 14x its own typical post.
- What is Nithin Kamath's engagement rate on X?
- Nithin Kamath (@Nithin0dha) has an engagement rate of 0.092%, based on the median interactions across 22 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,036,994 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.092%, Nithin Kamath sits above the 50th percentile of the 36,960 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @Nithin0dha have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 72% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,809 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @Nithin0dha post?
- Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.23 posts per day across the measured window.
