History

Angel Broking was incorporated on 8 August 1996 as a private limited company.[5] Later, Angel Broking was incorporated as a wealth management, retail and corporate broking firm in september, 1997.[6] In November 1998, Angel Capital and Debt Market Ltd. gained membership of National Stock Exchange as a legal entity.[7] The company opened its commodity broking Division in April, 2004.[8] In November 2007, Birla Sun Life Insurance joined hands with Angel Broking for distribution of its insurance products.[9] The International Finance Corporation bought an 18% stake in Angel Broking for ₹152 crore (equivalent to ₹459 crore or US$49 million in 2023) in December 2007.[10] The company opened an office in Karol Bagh, New Delhi in October 2012.[11]

In January 2013, a probe found the company and two other entities involved in fraudulent and unfair trade practices in transactions of shares of Sun Infoways during Feb-May 2001.
