Groww might suddenly ask: “Enter your TPIN to continue.” And you're like, “What TPIN? What now?” Relax. This blog explains exactly what TPIN is and how to generate TPIN in the Groww app.

What is TPIN in Groww?

TPIN means Transaction PIN. It’s a 6-digit code given by CDSL (the government-regulated body that stores your shares). Imagine TPIN like a locker key for your stocks. Your Demat account is the locker. TPIN is the code to open it when you want to sell or withdraw your investments. For example, you want to sell 5 shares of Infosys. Groww asks for TPIN. Without it, it won’t unlock your shares for selling.
