In this post, I am going to update my list of the best HFT firms in India in 2021. I had written a post last year mentioning the top HFT firms during 2020. But in the last year, there have been a lot of new entries in this business and many firms have grown a lot.
Some of these firms are new in India and used to operate outside India before 2021 but after watching the scope and profitability of HFTs in India, they decided to open a trading desk in India itself. Another category of firms includes those firms which were small last year but have made a fortune in the Indian market in the last year and have outgrown some of the top HFT firms in India.
Best HFT Firms in India
- Quadeye
- AlphaGrep Securities
- Graviton Research LLC
- APT Portfolio / APT Capital
- Tower Research LLC
- World Quant
- Edge Focus Partners
- Millennium Management
- NK Securities Research
- Quantbox Research
- Da Vinci Derivatives
- DE Shaw
- Mathisys
Some of these firms did not come in the placement season of 2021 in the top IITs. This may be due to less profitability or less requirement of Human Resources currently in their firm.
Few of the above firms need special mentions because they raised the salary by a huge amount this year. Their CTCs are crossing 1Cr INR for working in their Indian Offices. This is by far the highest package ever offered in India for domestic job offers.
I will be adding their individual CTCs and salary in detail with the exact breakup and other perks. As soon as I am done with it I will be adding a link to that post.
