January 6, 2026 | 4:39 PM IST

In the competitive landscape of Indian business and financial news, Moneycontrol has once again secured its position as the leading digital platform, outperforming prominent rival The Economic Times across key readership and engagement metrics. The latest data from the global audience measurement firm Comscore for November 2025 reveals Moneycontrol’s continued dominance in the sector.

According to Comscore’s November report, Moneycontrol attracted an impressive 41.14 million unique visitors, surpassing the Economic Times, which recorded 30.85 million unique visitors during the same period. This significant lead highlights Moneycontrol’s strong appeal among audiences seeking timely and reliable business news and financial information.

Beyond visitor numbers, Moneycontrol also excelled in user engagement indicators. The platform garnered 215.78 million page views in November, more than twice the volume achieved by Economic Times, which managed 94.55 million page views. The data further highlights Moneycontrol’s ability to keep users actively engaged, resulting in a total of 492.67 million minutes spent on its site — over four times the 119.91 million minutes logged by Economic Times readers.

Nalin Mehta, Managing Editor of Moneycontrol, expressed pride over these figures, stating, “The latest numbers are a strong endorsement of our reporting. Readers are choosing to stay longer and return more often, which reinforces the value of serious, data-driven business journalism.” This sentiment underscores Moneycontrol’s commitment to delivering in-depth, accurate financial news that resonates with its audience.

Comscore’s findings position Moneycontrol as the clear leader in India’s digital business news domain, reflecting its extensive reach and deeper engagement relative to its nearest competitors. This leadership likely benefits from Moneycontrol’s wide-ranging content, including market updates, expert opinions, personal finance guidance, IPOs, and more, catering to the diverse interests of investors and professionals alike.

As Moneycontrol continues to innovate and expand its offerings, the platform’s sustained growth in audience and engagement metrics suggests it remains the go-to resource for Indian business and financial news consumers.
