StockGro revealed as brand behind Red Envelope activity: What we know now

At 3:00 PM on May 29, the countdown timer on redenvelope.club hit zero. The website, which had been live since at least May 23, previously displayed a graphic of a red envelope alongside a phrase: “Most envelopes deliver messages. This envelope delivers destinies.”

Upon refreshing the page post-countdown, users were redirected to a new landing screen hosted on the same domain, where the red envelope graphic transitioned to reveal a new message:

“The red envelope has found you.
What was once for the chosen few,

Now opens for you.

The red envelope invites you...”


Accompanying this was a brand reveal — StockGro, a digital investing platform with a website and an app — marking its role as the entity behind the Red Envelope Club’s digital trail going public. The red envelope finally opened to reveal an envelope with a metallic sheen displaying the StockGro logo and a line that reads, “The StockGro Advantage.” Next, it displayed visuals from the StockGro website, accompanied by the message: “Inner Circle Access,” indicating that the “chosen few” — or users who registered — can now access secret trade moves shared by over 150 experts registered with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI). It seems like through this litmus test, StockGro used the red envelope as a filter to identify curious traders, adding a new layer of exclusivity to digital investing.

Cross-platform confirmation
Soon after the countdown ended, the previously anonymous Instagram account — @red.envelope.society — also uploaded a new post, recounting the series of events as part of the red envelope online-offline trail so far and revealing StockGro to be behind it all. The red envelope’s seal was finally lifted to display a metallic-sheen StockGro logo envelope, ending with a sign-off message: “Your Envelope is your Edge. 7-Days advanced access unlocked for you.”

The reveal has been shared on X (formerly Twitter), with #RedEnvelopeReveal trending.

Recap of events leading to the reveal
It all started on May 19, when an Instagram user posted a video of a man rapping aboard a Delhi-to-Dubai flight, referencing the red envelope, with the video redirecting viewers to the handle @red.envelope.society.

In the following days, multiple users shared videos of red envelopes found in flight seat pockets and lounges — typically velvety, sealed with a gold insignia, and containing QR codes. These QR codes consistently led users to the same Instagram page or, later, to the countdown website redenvelope.club.

The Instagram handle, which described itself as “an invite-only network of elites,” had reached over 250,000 followers by May 24.

Post-reveal takeaways
While StockGro has not yet issued a formal press statement, the campaign appears to align with its broader push for financial education and investor engagement.

As of May 29, StockGro’s homepage and app include a new banner introducing the Red Envelope Society.

Ajay Lakhotia, CEO & Founder of StockGro, told EconomicTimes.com: “We didn’t want to preach. We wanted people to feel the exclusion—and then experience what inclusion actually looks like.”

When asked about the objective of the Red Envelope campaign, he said the campaign reflects the platform’s goal: to flatten the learning curve by offering access to insights from over 150 SEBI-registered advisors, where users can simulate and execute real strategies.

Looking ahead, StockGro plans to offer one free month of premium access to all users who registered during the campaign. This includes:

• High-conviction trades with over 70% historical success rate
• Real-time alerts from verified experts
• Deep insights and screeners modeled after institutional strategies

No evidence currently suggests any involvement from external financial institutions, regulatory bodies, or third-party platforms.
